    Got an hour and 20 minues before I take off... if you have questions, tell me for which player and list the question.

    You can ask Jeff -- there were plenty of opportunities to speak to players yesterday but being a starstruck fan I can't think of one thing to ask. Shandon was sitting there and I'm like, "What do I ask him?" ....

    I was thinking I'd probably go up to him and say: "hehe.... you're Shandon Anderson ....... that's cool."

    Ask Bull what he expects his role to be going in to this season. Does he see himself playing the 3 behind Wiz? Does he feel any pressure from Langhi? Does he plan on moving into the broadcast booth full time after this season, or does he still want to play beyond his current contract?

    ask Steve what he thought of Vince Carter's dunk on Weiss and if he would ever attempt the same thing.

    ask Shandon what he thinks of all the offseason moves the Jazz have made and if they have improved because of them

    Mo - are you looking forward to lighting up the Clips this year?

    Wiz - with all the improvements the Mavs have made this year, are they going to be stop you from busting up stick boy?

    SA - are you looking to continue to step up your offensive production like you did near the end of the season?

    Cato - Are you ready to dominate one of the weakest positions in the NBA and become a top ten center? You mentioned your Mother getting after your altercations with the referees. Are you going to mellow out and try to stay out of foul trouble?

    Steve - who are you going to be looking to feed the most this season? Now that you have your rookie season under your belt, how significantly do you think your turnovers will decrease. Are you looking to put more defensive pressure on the opposing pg?

    Hey Clutch,
    Tell Walt you know last year he started off slow and then towards the end of the season he became a key contributor on the team. And then ask him...

    1) Does he feel like it was just part of getting comfortable with a new team and a new offense. And does he expect to continue where he left off last season.
    2) How does he feel about competing with the rookie Langhi for minutes.
    3)How does he feel the team will improve over last year and does he see a playoff spot for them. ( you can ask this last question to all the players

    Ask Mooochie Now that Bryce is gone the responsiblility of backing up Steve is all on his shoulders does he feel pressured or is he up for the challenge.

    Ask Rudyand/or anyone how they feel about the new additions of Mo and the rookies and how they will make the team better ( for Rudy how he will utilize them)... Also what they're expectations are for the upcoming season especially in the beginning when the start off with a grueling schedule.

    Cat - With a second unit of KT, Cato, and Langhi, do you see your points decreasing while your assists go up? Or will you make that up in transition baskets you get from steals this year? How hard was it adjusting from pg to sg? Is it easier for you to guard the sg or pg?

    Moochie - please play with the fro.

    Langhi - a lot of Rocket fans have yet to see your best play. Have you modeled your game after any certain player? Who would you compare your game to?

    Clutch,

    Ask Steve how he feels this team will do defensively given the additions to the team and where does he see his game defensively compared to last year.

    Thanks.

    There were conflicting reports about Cato in the off season. The Rockets said he re-dedicated himself. CD supposedly worked with him everyday on big man moves. He said he wasnt ready last year b/c he had never played so many minutes but would be ready this year.
    But I also read reports that he was back at ISU finishing up some degree requirements.
    I doubt he could both be in Iowa and working out with CD everyday.

    So, ask him where he was over the Summer and what he did ("How did you spend your summer vacation?)
    Maybe have him describe his workout regimen.

    Steve Langhi? Is it you, or an imposter? Do you play any ball?

    You've all missed the obvious!

    The first question you should be asking is how Hakeem feels about this being his farewell season, if he's got any regrets about his career (things he would have done different), how productive he thinks he'll be this season, and the Rockets' chance at the playoffs.

    Gotta ask Rudy a little about the Dream team. Obviously he enjoyed himself and was happy to get the medal for the team and the country. But is he bothered by the criticism the team has gotten for its style of play, and for its narrow victories? Would he coach again, say in 2004, if he was asked to?

    Print the photo that your made of Mo in a Rockets Jersey and show it to him and ask him how he likes the jerseys.

    Make sure that you also have the CC.net Logo on it

    Ask Rudy what areas he expects to see the biggest improvement this year.

    Welcome to the group coach Langhi. Wondering how you see Dan fitting in with this team. I understand you may be biased a bit, but based on his summer league play, so are teh rest of us and we are very excited about this "steal" of a draft pick. Do you feel the same way?
