    AB back, Yao back and to stay healthy, time to jell, more intensity especially on defense like the game last night, more Lee, less Battier. I would like to see what the team can do when all together and healthy before making a major trade.

    I vote hustle.

    New coach sounds nice but who are you going to pull in for that job? and I was acting under the assumption that you fire Rick today.

    A tough C / PF with athleticism, length, height who can block shots, rebound, and embarrass an aging Timmy Duncan.

    Trade an expiring contract or two for some youth, athleticism and hustle. I agree with the c/pf comment above, but what about jordan hill? I'm enjoying his development and believe his mins need to stay up. I hear, due to the cba situation, Brooks isn't going anywhere. Not sure about this? Would like to see Brooks + battier + 1st for a young big. Cousins and filler, maybe?

    Like solid, I want to wait and see what a healthy group looks like.

    So in lieu of health, I pick hustle.

    (anybody else watch the Rockets first game of the season last night? ;) )

    None of the above.

    What the Rockets need is health and a witch doctor to drive out the injury demons that have plagued this franchise for years. Simple example was GS last night: without Lee they are in a tailspin. With him they were pretty good.

    With Brooks and a healthy Yao we are/were likely a playoff team, but no more than that. We are an elite, crunch time player away from contending for a championship. Let's see what Morey does with the accumulated assets at the trade deadline.

    Just my 2 cents.

    None of the above options.

    They need to win the #1 draft pick and pick up a future HOF player, like Tim Duncan/Kobe game changer that is only available every 5-10 years in a draft.

    It's not likely to happen, but it's what they need.
