    You can go here to vote . I can't stand to see a Rocket lose to a GSW... especially Chuck.

    At the bottom you can vote for Shane. He's winning by a large margin, but we don't want to let him get behind!

    If you did not know both players well, but just read the quote you would vote for Turiaf too.

    I hate to see a rocket loose to GSW too.

    especially this matchup. matt harpring is losing badly, like a utah player should ;)

    Utah - Matt Harpring: “Harpring comes from a family of Collegiate football players and is the one guy in the NBA who won’t back down to anyone. Averaged 5.4 floor burns per game in the 2008 season. Check out this video clip, need I say more?”
    CB Jack from My Utah Jazz

    Wild Card - Shane Battier: “Not only is he a shoo-in nominee, the dude should win your tournament outright. He’s not a very good offensive player. He’s valuable because he’s a lock-down defensive player who does everything based on hustle, desire and effort. And he’s certainly not afraid of a few floor burns… or cuts/bruises to the head… or Dikembe’s elbow!”
    David from The Dream Shake

    Harpring or Battier

    * Shane Battier (83%, 214 Votes)
    * Matt Harpring (17%, 43 Votes)

    Total Voters: 257

    WOW. They basically said, "Hayes sucks, but he's still on the team. That makes him good enough to be on this list."

    I mean, we already knew that, but they shouldnt be so blunt.

    Turiaf sucks plus could he have played any worse in the playoffs? He was definitely competing for the "Gilbert Arenas: Dark Angel of Death" award. So was Luther Head.

    Yeah, he's a better player than Chuck but in terms of who is a better value give me Chuck any day of the week.

    the good thing is Rockets did not pay $4000000 to Hayes.

    Do these people not know about Chuck's uncanny ability to play defense...but to be fair his kryptonite is free throws and offense?

    But he is certainly a better player than Turiaf.

    Landry ≥ Turiaf >>> Hayes

    We all love Hayes but he is a glorafied scrub.

    I am curious as what will be Dorsey's effect on Hayes. They are both defensive players with little or no offense, if Landry signs that makes both third string PF. They will be competing against each other or one might get traded down the road.

    Harpring has had a bigger impact in the playoff than shane. I guess they're talking regular season.
