    I maybe a Dream but the Description of this
    Player . . is what we need.

    A Player that won't be in the way on Offense
    A Player that CAN REBOUND on the Defensive end
    A Player could be a poor man's Horry on Weak side help.

    I'm no dissatisfied.
    I don't know much about Langhi . . .
    can someone gimmie some info.

    Line up:
    C - Hakeem/ Cato/ Collier
    PF - Cato/ Collier/ Los/ Langhi/ Mass
    SF - Williams/ Anderson/ Los
    SG - Anderson / Mobley/ Williams
    PG - Francis/ Moochie / Drew

    WE CAN GO BIG!!
    Hakeem /Cato/ Los/ Williams / Francis
    :)

    I'm Not dissatisfied.

    I don't think Los would be effective at the SF spot. I'd also have Cato start over the Dream, but I do like the Catomic Bomb and Olajuwon in at the same time. If Hakeem is completely healthy then that duo can be dangerous. Cato, KT, and Los must still play a lot of minutes though.

    OUCH! I left out KT!!!
    reLine up:
    C - Hakeem/ Cato/ Collier
    PF - Cato/ Collier/ Los/KT / Mass
    SF - Williams/ Anderson/ Langhi
    SG - Anderson / Mobley/ Williams
    PG - Francis/ Moochie / Drew

    The question is Who not in the rotation.
    There is no Bullard or PIG here.

    Will T.Mass and Los Resign ?
    Whould they be ReSigned ?
    [I like 'Los]
    What to do with Drew?

    Langhi is very comparable to Matt Bullard. An outside shooter, who has the height to play down low, but not the skills.

    Langhi's a terrific scorer.

    (Los is not a free agent).

    Rocket River-You left KT off, because I sent you subliminal messages that we're trading him [​IMG].

    The more lefties on your team, the better.
    Collier is Seven Foot and Left Handed. How can you go wrong?
    Trade or bench Kenny Thomas.

    Langhi is much more of a scorer than Bullard. Lahghi can put the ball on the floor and go to the hoop. Bullard has always been a stationary jump shooter and nothing more.

    Langhi can light it up. He is ideally suited for the 3 position....even though he is a long 6'11" or so. He averaged 22.1 ppg for Vandy last year. People have compared him to Bullard...but I think Langhi is quicker, more athletic, and more agile than Bullard. In other words, we may see Langhi driving to the hoop a bit more than Bull.

    As far as rebounding and defense go....they may be a wash.

    People have been comparing him to Bullard because he's white.

    ------------------
    Just because you're white and play basketball doesn't mean you're a Matt Bullard clone, despite idiotic accusations to the contrary.

    I think you can pretty much scratch off Los and Massenburg. Seems to me that the Rockets were drafting people who could replace both of those guys. I think Los really wants to play badly, and with the amount of people we now have at the PF & SF spots, I don't think he'll get too many looks. Be prepared for him to bail.
