Dawson made a bad deal four years ago ,we trade our franchise roster ,2nd roster and a big backup center,aquiring an injuried guy ,an old PF who would no longer be in his prime, a small pg and a short shooter.
Franchise is untradable for ever .Dawson made a wrong dicision ,because the team was approching with Yao ,steve and Cuttino.If he must trade francis ,then why did he take the cat together ?Actually we need a shooter since cat was traded.Jon barry is a good shooter yet old,bob sura is more of a player.as a result of our lack of shooter,Yao has been always facing the double.I guess yao will never off the ball when facing the one on one match,the same to tmac.but because we have no shooter,the two guys have to face the double,that 's why i suggest we should trade one of them.Provided we have mobley and francis on our team,yao will be more free near the hoop.However ,the fact is that yao was posted in the paint,with his injuried toe being steped and steped again.
So don't attribute yao's missing games to yao himself.dawson should blame to the jnjury . After trading SF and cat,we formed a two-star team,but we have to find a 3rd score in attach.we should have two stars ,yao and SF3,and a 3rd cat at the same time.But now morey have to pay dawson's bills , having to find another score. what's more ,if we have had cato as yao's backup,would yao be injuried so many times? Deke is good when he is young ,but he's not young any more.We should not have be envious to celtics so much we had big three four years ago,our big three were SF3,Cat and yao ,but two of them were traded for our new big two.

So please stop thinking about trading our big two for big three ,like trade tmac for Prince and Billups.Billups prince and yao are not big three,they are big one plus medium two.

Well, we still haven't been out the first round. Which is as far as the Franchise/Cat/Yao Rockets went. Kind of sad isn't it? I don't think we'd do any worst, or any better if we never made the trade. I'd still pull the trigger on it though.

when I learned mcgrady was headed to houston I couldn't believe it. I was so happy. We were getting one of the most explosive scoters in the league. It was amazing.

I foresaw playoff success and a championship. It hasn't happened thus far but we still have a shot.
