I'm tired of all the Mo Taylor sucks/ Kenny Thomas sucks posts. Why cant we just be happy that they are both rockets. They both put a lot of time and effort into this team. From the T.V reports Mo is bustin his a$$ to get back into top shape to help this team push towards the playoffs. He was even at the summer league games supporting the younger players on the team. If you ask me thats love for your team. Kenny Thomas brings his game every night. Even when it was clear that the season was over, he still came to play. Even when there was nothing to play for. Those are the kind of attitudes that we need on this team if they're going to grow to the next level and become a championship caliber team. Both of these guys are still on the rockets and we all need to hope that they continue to do what they are doing for the team.
one of them has to go, cause EG has already stated to his agent that he will bolt, if this log jam at the 4 continues. I'd rather keep KT anyway.
Preach on my brother! How can anyone blame KT or Maurice or Rice or Moochie or anyone on this team. Lets place the blame where it belongs - KELVIN CATO!
Aight, all I'm going to say is that Big Mo is a big body and can shoot, Kenny Thomas is also a position player but his free throws suck. Why not keep Mo and trade Spinny Thomas along with shrimp fried Rice, and give Eddie the starter job until Mo can prove he is willing to get back to the form his is capable of being in. Otherwise Eddie in fina words and comments is the man and can block with some 3's on the side, what more can you ask for in a PF or SF, thanks and that is all I got to say about that.
impressive first post. I love KT haters. KT SUCkS, KT SUCKS!!! We have to hate becuase its stupid to have that many good players on one team. But the player with the least upside has to go. If mo tay can get back in his original form, he will be better than KT. KT can't shoot, he predicable, and he does that same damn spin move all the time that the refs called traveling, or offensive foul.
Suddenly I deeply deeply hope that we go into the season with MoT, KT, and EG. 10 games into the season, when either Eddie's agent asks for a move, or KT starts whining, whichever comes first, I WILL BE THE FIRST TO SAY I TOLD YOU SO. I'm officially part of the "Don't trade KT" team now. Why place the blame on Cato? Cato's has been bustin his ass too working out, if you remember the reports. There's no one to be unhappy about on this team. Everyone is a hard worker. Think about it for a sec.
I personally don't hate ANYONE on this team. Not Cato, not Rice, not KT and not Rudy because they are Rockets and they will play well this season I think. Honestly I feel next season will be a breakout season for the Rockets. We are deep at every position, we have a lot of fast young players, we have a lot of players who can score a lot of points, we have some good defensive players now and we are now all healthy and injury free I think And with Ming to stop Shaq and Griffin to crush Kobe who is to say we won't be champions.. YEAH that's the attitude I will have from now on
The Point of the thread was to stop hating, at least show some respect and stop for this one thread. All the Rockets players are staying on our team damn it! Hush about trading and people sucking.
I like what Mo brings (when healthy, obviously). And I think he's all right, he seems like a cool guy. And KT? Well he's just swell too. It's just that....Mo, KT, EG. You know EG stays; Mo might be untradeable (maybe: Seattle did pawn off Baker, but playing near home, and in the Leastern Conference, Baker might be OK, so that might not be the best example...but I digress). So Kenny looks like the odd man out, especially as he will soon be saying the magic word "extension."
Try this guys: go to all the other nba forums of other teams Ask what you can get for Kenny,and ask about Mo After they get done laughing in your faces,they will tell you nothing becuz they suck. Quit being bias. The only way to improve is to keep your emotions out of the game. Lewis sucks to.No one but dallas and sonics want him. Also,everyone keeps telling me griffin and cat suck to.So time will tell. Does Ron mercer suck? Well cuttino is the exact same player. Griffin will be good,but not as good as gasol.I have found NO ONE that would trade a all star for Griffin. Kenny is worth nothing. Mo would get you maybe Bryon Russell,who sucks. Ming is also hated big time.Nearly 99% I chat with laugh and call him a Bradley.Even espn does to. Whats ironic,is that every nba fan loves Francis,yet Francis gets hated sometimes here.Go figure.
true,...and the problem is that kenny thinks he is a starter when we all know he is simply a real nice backup...I'd rather mave Mo if one of the two has to go because of this attitude... Griffin is the man!
thebestfan, Your last post is littered with opinion. I don't agree with ANY of your assesments. Ask about Kenny and Mo? You want to know? The Raptors and Sonics wanted Mo. In fact, the Raptors offered a huge long-term contract. Lewis sucks? Dallas want him. They are contenders. Seattle wants him. Houston wants him. Toronto wants him. Utah wants him too apparently. There's also a handful of other teams that WANT him but can't HAVE him. Ron Mercer was give the minutes on a bad team, and din't avergae Mobley numbers. Cuttino is a much better scorer. Plus, Cuttino is CLUTCH as hell. No one will trade a All Star for Griffin. But Houston wouldn't trade Griffin for the same ALl Stars you're talking about. You think Ming is Bradley? That's fine, even I don't know. What I do know is that Ming is dominating the international competition that Braley could barely play up to. What's ironic is that ESPN doesn't like Ming, u don't either. ESPN loves Francis, so you do too. ESPN doesn't give KT props, you don't either. ESPN doesn't think much of Cuttino, neither do you. No one hates Steve on this board. Everyone knows what Francis means to the team. It's just that people are not so quick to state the obvious.
