As in Mo Taylor. Sorry, bad pun. Everyone was having so much fun arguing about him, I figured I'd drop this note in here. There was some discussion here about his conditioning, etc. I asked someone I know who knows about such things and was told that Mo is going nuts wanting to get back and play. He became a weight room junkie last summer before his injury and apparently has added some bulk to his upper body while rehabbing. This info from the same person who complained about Taylor's "baby fat" and "lack of conditioning" when we signed him. I heard Bill and Calvin mention how bulked up Mo was getting during the game tonight and it reminded me of this. Plus, I think my head is finally coming out of the flu and fever-induced fog that has been clouding it for the past 5 days. Also, I asked about the glut at PF and didn't hear anything that seemed to indicate the Rockets were all that concerned at this point. They want to get everyone back healthy and see what they have.
Good news Jeff. It's too bad that Taylor had to get injured because he most definately would have had a great season this year. His added strength should help him rebound and generally play more physical as well. "A weight room junkie" great news. It shows that he is committed to improving his game and living up to his contract.
Calvin also said Kenny Thomas was an all-star so I'll believe the MoT stuff when I see it. MoT still wearing those very professional sweat suits and MC Hammer chains.
I remember hearing from someone too that Collier was going to be much stronger. Perhaps it was the Cat?
weight room doesnt do squat.. if he gained 20 pounds of muscle its from juice..i should know.. if he is on juice..HAND SOME TO EG!!!! and to CATO!!!!!! but i remeber genius worrel comenting on horry being bulked up and i lol,since horry gained like 5 pounds... juice rules man..you dont get near as hot,your alwasy hydrated,you never tire,you jump higher,faster,stronger..shaq is on the juice...so why cant the rest of the L?
ok roc paint,you want to play hard ball... eddie is shaq's b****,he looked like a p***y guarding shaq.. cato might be writing and reading to many kids books,his play is soft for mark jackson to spit on
I hope he serves his suspension when he is 100% healthy (not that he ever will be after ripping apart his achilles)...the more games without him, the better.
Last year (of course last year), Mo got the team going in the first quarter. Maybe foul trouble or whatever got him to the bench after that, but still, the fact he's bulking up is good. Hope it translates to productivity on the court. I still wonder about that power forward glut, though.
balh blah blah blah 1st quarter blah blah foul trouble blah blah blah gets us going... For those who aren't aware (this isnt necessarily directed at Roxtxia ...a zillion of Mo T supporters say the same thing about him) The game is 4 quarters long. There are 82 of those games. 2 questions to all of those Mo supporters who say that he gets us going in the 1st qtr and then gets in foul trouble... 1) how much do you win if the horse you bet gets to the quarter pole first? 2) How is bulking up going to keep him out of foul trouble? Answers... 1) not a friggin thing 2) its not..he will still stink
