    Take my word or not.....your choice but this is what I have heard. For those of you who know who Jimmy V is.....well then you know who he is, if you don't, I will fill you in on who is. Jimmy V is Yao's personal trainer. He has dealt with alot of pro's in there training. Now since the background info is complete here comes the rumor.

    My best friend is good friends with Jimmy V. I was hanging out with him and my boy earlier today when the topic of the Rockets season comes into conversation. He guarenteed me and my boy that this years season is going to be the best in a LOOOOOONG LOOOOOONG time. We then talk about Steve, and he goes on to say that he is chillin since he just got paid by Portland. He went and bought a big ass boat and is chillin on Lake Conroe every weekend. Then I bring up Mr. Bonzi, and he says Bonzi is trying his hardest to get back into shape, and is very close to his old days with Kings. Next I ask him if we are going to sign or get rid of anybody, and says Rafer will be out by trade deadline, there not gonna let him go now......now the good part. He says that since our old time friend, Mo Taylor is available and front office is in talks to sign him.

    Now personally thinking about Mo Taylor back on the Rockets with this new squad will def. be the last of the puzzle. We don't need anybody else to score, we need defenders and Mo is a hell of a defender. Anyways Jimmy V is a tight ass guy, he is getting me and my boy tickets to games, and the seats he is gonna get us are 4 rows behind Rockets bench.

    I hope you guys don't think im full of ****, cause im not, but if talks of Mo Taylor getting signed to Rockets come up, don't forget who you heard it first from........

    Nevermind, I had lost my faculties due to sleep deprivation. This makes no sense.

    yeah.....

    so is "jimmy V" also known as anthony falsone or does yao have another trainer i'm not aware of.

    it's not that i don't believe you it's just completely far-fetched. mo taylor is not a good player on either side of the ball and certainly was never a defensive presence. he had a nice offense game at his prime which was like one season with the clippers.

    there's no playing time or roster spots for mo taylor. i have to believe they'd easily rather have carl landry and i'm not even sure where he fits right now.

    I would rather get old Uncle Cliffy than Mo Taylor. He isn't needed at all.

    You're either full of **** or delusional, because that is the craziest thing I've heard this entire offseason.

    Last I heard, Anthony Falsone was Yao's personal trainer and Patrick Ewing has a better chance of making a comeback than Mo Taylor. BTW, Mo T. was always a better offensive player than defender.

    Put Mo Taylor in Adelmans game and he can fit. I think the Rockets are trying to get old players back. Don't kill the messanger, this is just what i have heard and am passing it on.

    Mo taylor plays no defense and he isn't what the rockets need right now. The rockets need a shot blocker and rebounder at that 4 position.

    Since when Mo Taylor's defense is rated good?

    I would rather have Cato back please.

    Wait, is he still playing?

    Besides, don't we still need a backup center ?
