another great game for the rox. ever since we cut some of the fat from this team (thomas hamilton) we have been winning anyone else think this is the reason why? ------------------ johnny "red" kerr:i'm glad the bulls did'nt draft steve francis. dan roan: why!!!!! johnny red kerr:because he would forever be compared to michael jordan.
I think Steve Francis is the reason why... the evolution of a superstar. Also, the emergence of Kenny Thomas. The 2 rookies have stepped it up. Not to be overlooked, The Wiz has been playing a bit better lately as well. ------------------ trade him.
I hate to admit, but you are both completely, without a doubt, WRONG!!! The reason the Rockets are doing so good right now and winning has nothing to do with Steve Francis, nothing to do with Kenny coming on, nothing to do with Olajuwon's return, nothing to do with Hamilton being left at the buffet line, it has all to do with me going back to my lucky Rockets shirt. So I expect some thank you's, from all of you Rocket fans, for getting us this winning streak....
You know what I love about having hakeem back. The rebounds, blocks and his hustle. He has been doing great. His shot has been off but he isnt in shape right now, give him a couple weeks and he will be getting it back. With the addition of Cato coming back, this team is only going to get stronger.
As I expected, Hakeem's return coincides with an upswing to the Cattino slump. Stevie Franchise, ( absolutely the BEST name I've heard), doesn't need Dream's anchor as much cuase he's the center when he's on the floor. Mobley needs that low post threat to open up his game, IMO. Hakeem can pitch it out to Cat, who is deadly from the line.
