    However, I searched youtube for some Ratliff highlights and everything that came up was "Top 10 dunks on Theo Ratliff" and "Bill Walker posterizes Theo Ratliff"

    Rumors from the media and ideas from the GARM are looking more and more alike. NOT GOOD.

    I think Ratliff is for a sign and trade with Portland.

    Well he is a lot younger than Dikembe and he fills the same kind of role. Veteran center that is able to give you a decent amount of rebounds and plug the hole on defense! Not too bad. He is still looking for a decent trade for us at the starting spot.

    Im aware of that. Dikembe was the backup center. They would still be looking for a starting center, meaning after Theo they need a starter...

    Backup, 1 year deal. Anything else would suck.

    If they sign him, it probably means Stoudamire should be packing his bags for H-town

    Yep, backup center, we still need 2 centers on our roster considering we currently have 0. Just because we may sign a backup center first, doesn't mean Morey still isn't out there trying to find our starting center via trade.

    Most likely, this years starter will be next years backup and this years backup won't be on the team next year.

    He's an okay replacement for Dikembe. I'm not against giving him a small (< $3M) deal for 15 mpg.

    Rockets nowhere near a deal with Ratliff and don't want other teams to know they're interested?
