    I could have sworn that there was a poll on this earlier...

    anyways, <i>only 62 more days until the season starts!</i>

    If there was, I didn't see it. Perhaps I was away that day.

    Oh, and you only have six players listed...

    I mean, who's to say that Moochie Norris won't lead the team in scoring? :)

    I say that the team will distribute the ball evenly and everyone on that list will tie except for Cato because his momma says he stinks. :D

    Cat led the team in scoring last year when he became a starter and I think Steve's avg will drop a little because he will be more comfortable dishing off to Rice than he was Shandon. Rice could also make a push for this if he can consistantly nail the open jumper and he has plays called for him ala Walt. Taylor might be the biggest beneficiary of Rice being on the team, because someone will be open on Steve/Cat penetrations and teams will have to choose to leave one of Cat/Steve, Mo, or Glen open. I would guess they pick Mo.

    I was thinking the same thing Hydra! There are too many scoring options for the PG to be the leading scrorer. Cuttino MOBLEY!

    I think Steve Francis will be the top scorer,with Mobley being a close second. Cato will never lead the Rockets in scoring.

    I would have said Mobley until Stevie said he's going to concentrate more on scoring and less on boards this year...

    I think the Cat will barely edge Steve.


    When is our first Pre-Season game??

    I think Mobley will actually see his scoring drop noticeably. The zone is an anti-Mobley rule and I think it will be somewhat effective in containing him. He'll get less iso because they'll lose some effectiveness and he'll score less as a result. He'll still be able to slash, but the defense will be more effective against him.
