Seems like the Rockets traded away all their beef when they traded Tmac.

    Only last season, the Rockets were a beefy team with Artest, Landry, Chuck, Lowry, Yao, and Dorsey.

    Now, they only have Hayes and Lowry left among this bunch. Artest got replaced by Martin and Ariza. The frontline minutes now go to Jeffries and Andersen instead of Yao and Landry. Even Dorsey is gone in the TMac trade.


    The team is now filled with skinny guys. No wonder they no longer have street cred. Morey needs to bring in more beef.

    Never thought I'd say this...

    But nice post Carl.
    Made me laff.

    Is Yao beefy? Will he make up for our lack of beefiness when he returns?

    Scola's kinda beefy.

    Wow. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Someone needs to teach scola and jj to box out and go for rebounds rather than say F it and go to D.

    Where's the Beef?

    As Lil Flip once said:
    What's beef?
    Beef is when a ***** like you can't eat!
    Beef is when you wake up in the morning and you can't sleep!

    indeed.
    even Jordan Hill and Hilton Armstrong are thin.
    Budinger is skinny as well. JT is alright.

    Good/terrible title.


    But he is throwing out a valuable point of losing Landry and especially Artest and the negatives it has on the team. Granted there are still a lot of positives.

    We gets a lot of beef cause we got manhandled by Jizzhole in the playoffs....
    But since we have no chance of making the playoff this year, I think it's ok...

    If by ridiculous you mean awesome. In the infamous word of the Wendy's hag from the 80's commercial: "Where's the beef?!?"

    Whut? Knee jerk? It's true. We did trade away much beef.

    Where's the beef now? Chuck and Lowry and that' pretty much it. Scola maybe.

    Serious muscle loss!

    calm down dude!!!

    Lowry and Yao are both injured. so it doesn't count aginst our "beefy" status.
    Think of this season as a preparation for next.

    yes we lost Carl, but we had to in order to score KM and trade Tmac away. Just wait until this summer and those picks we got.

    complaint again next season

    No complaining. They lost. Fine. Playoff hope slim to begin with. Gone now. OK.

    Just observing that the team was beefy. Now gone the other direction. Fact. No can dispute.

    It is what it is.
