10 seconds on the clock. Team down by 2. their best player has the ball. do you seriously think if Yao and Shaq are guarding the basket that they will take it to the Rack? lol YES...especially if they're a star player they will drive it at Yao and the refs will blow the whistle on yao like always!
My Point in this is that . . the Rockets are really not *THAT FAR* away from contending. What exactly is missing from our run into the second round. Artest - Questionable Offense and above average Defense. which was replaced by Ariza why did we lose thoe games we lost badly? [I still the Refs helped us lose a bit - which is one of the main reasons to geta superstar . .. SUPERSTAR CALLS] Rocket River
Thank you. Am I the only one that thinks roster as is is 2nd best in the west with posibilities of beating the Lakers if healthy.
If we cannot land Bosh then the plan B should be a back up center as well as a good back up shooting guard. I will sign Brad Miller(has size, knows Adelman's system) and also try to get Ronnie Brewer (great defender, decent scorer). Yao Ming/Brad Miller/Chuck Hayes/Jared Jeffries Luis Scola/Jordan Hill/Chuck Hayes/Jared Jeffries Trevor Ariza/Shane Battier/Patrick Patterson/Chase Budinger Kevin Martin/Ronnie Brewer/Chase Budinger/Jermaine Taylor Aarron Brooks/Kyle Lowry
assuming no bosh. new additions: foye, rudy fernandez, and brendan haywood. PG: brooks, lowry, foye SG: martin, fernandez, taylor SF: ariza, budinger, taylor PF: scola, patpat, hill C: yao, haywood, hill i'd rather have haywood banging downlow against the lakers than brad miller.
Thanks for the positive comments on my suggestion. I appreciate it. I've noticed some have also placed Foye or, instead of him, Rudy Fernandez. Just a simple question to spark some conversation. If it was between Rudy Fernandez and Rudy Foye, who would you rather have on the team? Thought it might be a refreshing argument, instead of the whole Brad Miller or [Insert Different Center Here]
Trade Jeffries, cash/pick for Nazr Sign Foye Trade Andersen, pick or cash for TE C - Ming, Mohammad, Hill PF - Scola, Hayes, Patterson SF - Ariza, Battier, Harris SG - Martin, Budinger, Taylor PG - Brooks, Lowry, Foye Reasonable I guess.
C: Oswalt PF: Bagwell SF: Biggio SG: Alou PG: Ausmus Wait, wrong team......er....players.....er sport.
If we win a title next year, this team would rival Detroit's last championship run on winning with no superstar. Then our players would probably leave the team looking for a bigger paycheck.
Next year's roster, no more, no less. CURRENT ROSTER 13 David Andersen C 6-11 1 Trevor Ariza G 6-8 31 Shane Battier F 6-8 0 Aaron Brooks G 6-0 10 Chase Budinger F-G 6-7 33 Mike Harris F 6-6 44 Chuck Hayes C-F 6-6 27 Jordan Hil l F 6-10 20 Jared Jeffries F 6-11 30 Alexander Johnson F 7 Kyle Lowry G 6-0 12 Kevin Martin G 6-7 4 Luis Scola F-C 6-9 8 Jermaine Taylor G 6-4 11 Yao Ming
Pg- cp3/Nash sg- Wade/Martin sf- lbj/melo pf- bosh/Amare C- Yao Dwight Ino this seems pretty tough but I definitly think we will be a .500 team tell me wat u think? All they have to do is take huge salary cuts, after all they do say it's all about winning(=
