Will we ever get a Superstar Player to come to Houston?

do some research. This team has had plenty of stars - Hayes, Murphy, Malone, Sampson, Olajuwan, Barkley, Pippen, Yao, McGrady. They've also had 3 SIGNIFICANT #1 picks in the past 20 years Sampson, Olajuwan and Yao....think about that vs. the number of teams in the league. If the lottery were rigged, NY or LA would have gotten the Yao pick. What a dump@ss post.

We're in a bad spot because we bet the farm on Yao and McGrady and they both crapped the bed. It takes time to reverse direction, especially when the rules change concerning contracts, etc. Yes, I agree that the pairing/demands of players to go to certain teams freakin' sucks, but this is not an NBA conspiracy. It's based on loopholes in the system and until they get serious about fixing the problem - it's going to continue down this path. The lock-out was a joke.

Imagine how Milwaukee or Cleveland or Golden State or Detroit or Minnesota or Denver or .........ORLANDO fans feel. Again, dumb@ass post.

That's about in a nutshell what I was going to respond with. We got the #1 pick 9 years ago, we got Francis (#2?) a few years before that.

Cleveland, Detroit, Orlando, Clippers, Warriors, Hawks, Knicks, Nets, Grizzlies, T-wolves, Celtics, Heat, Chicago, Washington, Toronto, Kings. All these teams have at some point over the last 10 years have been god awful. Yet not all of them have had a #1 pick.

On the other hand, FAs won't just sign here when your roster consists of Budinger, Thabeet, Flynn, Dragic ect. Big time players want a supporting cast that will lead them somewhere, sadly that's not where Houston is at right now.
