I always thought Langhi, being from a decent school and all (Vandy), would be somewhat articulate. However, I heard Lisa Malosky interview him after a game late last season, and the guy sounds like a complete moron. You think Jason Williams (of the Grizzlies) sounds like an idiot? Listen to Langhi for about 1 minute. I almost thought I needed to adjust the sound on my tv, the guy sounds like he's from the freakin' hood! HE WENT TO VANDERBILT!!!! what the heck?
With a lineup of: Bubble: Cato Ming Collier MoT KT Eddie Rice TMo Nachbar Mobley Torres Francis Mooch Tierre Tito IMO, If Collier doesn't have an outstanding summer he will be gone. Otherwise he will go to the IR to start off. The three T's will fight for the last spot and Torres has the best chance to win it, but Tierre is very talented and after keeping him all last year I think they want to this year also. Tito is the has the least experience and has the biggest hill to climb to break into the lineup. He also has more options to play elsewhere and come back later.
Jonzen played center at Oklahoma State and has a good mid range jumper as well as being a good rebounder. He gave Drew Gooden fits when Sutton allowed Jonzen to defend him.
if he cannot find a job elsewhere, maybe LI yaomin can give him a job at shanghai sharks. I am not kidding. Shanghai needs a center next season with Yao leaving. The salary? I guess around $150,000 is Shanghai can offer (but maybe they can offer more since they will get big bucks from Yao next seaon).
Does it automatically mean that since Dan Langhi wouldn't play in the Rockets summer league that he wouldn't be a Rocket next year? What about Bryce Drew? Drew wasn't expected to return to the Rockets for the 2000-2001 season (because Steve Francis and Moochie Norris got all the point guard minutes, leaving Drew with little to no playing time), but he still played in the Rockets summer leagues.
That's really a shame, Langhi had the skills to become the next Matt Bullard. Wait, I take that back.
Jonzen was very good 2 years ago, but faded a little last year. He could turn out to be a very good player, but I would have much rather seen them pick up Aaron McGhee.
im not too surprised about this. i am really eager to see tierre brown and tito maddox duel it out during the preseason.
I was at the game against the Sonics when Langhi had his "breakout" game scoring 18. I was never really down w/ Langhi before that but then I thought I had witnessed the potential he was supposed to have. Unfortunately, the next game he went back to his dissapperaing act. He's just not cut out for the NBA, at least not now. He looked intimdated and overmatched just about every time he stepped on the court. He was here for a couple of years though so I guess I got a little attached to that little benchwarmer and will be a little sad to see him go. Peace Out DL!
Man...I'm gonna miss Damn Lanky. That guy is a certified "baller" no doubt. Got the height, got the J, got the handle, got the whole package. He needs to goto Italy and play like Boki...he's still got the potential. Fred Jonzen!! DAMMIT! I HATED HIM ON OSU! Maybe cuz he played well against UT...ugh OSU...
If only we could send TMo, Oscar, Tierre with him. I would say Collier too but I still can't seem to forget that game he gave Shaq trouble, that was awesome.6 fouls keeps him a rocket. Oscar, find a jump shot, and a grip on the ball. Tierre, find another team to get some time on.Just another guy that you can find in the 2nd rnd. TMo, give me a damn break, find something to be better than average at will you for Steve's sake? Danny boy, confidence comes with playing time. Sorry Steve's sorry ass boy TMo kept you riding the pine.That was bull crap. It's o.k. TMo won't be far behind you. P.S> You should have kept your mouth shut, F**king with Rudy ain't cool, especially when Moochie and Cat are running the team.Talk about driving someone crazy!
I was thinking the same thing. I was having flashbacks to the few times OSU beat OU. Damn Aggies!!! I can't believe I'm agreeing with a Texas fan.
