I just read that Matt Bullard is signing with the Charlotte Hornets on Monday. Ya'll think this will effect the team?
Exit Bullard, insert Langhi. It was in the cards when they drafted him last year. Sorry to see Bull go, however.
That sucks. I'm going to miss "Air Bull". With him and Olajuwon gone, there will be no more player links to the Rocket championships of '94 and '95.
Wasn't it Bullard that was sent with Horry to Detroit for Sean Elliot in the trade that was nullified? What year was that?
"I'm looking forward to having a guy like Matt fitting in with the team," Hornets coach Paul Silas said. "He will defend and rebound and his shooting is an added bonus." Looks like CD did a snowjob on the Hornets. They think Bull is going to give them defense and rebounding!
I was just about to post the EXACT same thing. "He will <i>defend and rebound</i>???" HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!! I love the guy, but even he would laugh at that one!
Bull will give you defense and rebounding ... limited it is. That's why I love BULL! He knows himself!
Think of it this way: the last time Bullard WASN'T on this team, they won a championship. He was obviously the albatross around our necks keeping us from the promised land. Good-bye and good riddence! Go ruin some other team's chances of winning a championship. We now know who the Rockets WON'T be facing in the finals in 2002 - the Charlotte Hornets. /EXIT SARCASM/ If you started to get upset then you placed too much value on Bullard's contribution to this club.
TB (tuberculosis?)-Cain, you missed the point. Is there no room for sentiment anymore? Goodbye Air Bull. We'll miss you and your magical matt moments.
I think it's depressing. Cuttino is now the standardbearer of Rocket tradition. Now I love Cuttino... but we don't even have any hold overs from the mid-90's anyore .
