    Hi, this post is basically who I'de like playing for us.
    As far as I know we need someone who can hit jumpers.
    Someone who can make baskets aside from driving to the basket in Isolation.Someone like an Allan Houston type of a player.
    Heres some G/F's
    Ron Mercer (IND) ( He's a Free agent pretty soon I think)
    Michael Redd (MIL)(He very attainable with the right combo of trade bait)
    Lucious Harris(NJ)(He's definitely streaky but hey I like the face helmet he dawns)
    Vladimir Radmanovic(SEA) (He's a shooter.)
    Wesley Person(MEM) ( Has a very high price tag. But can fill it up where we need it)

    But i really think Cuttino and Steve can be those people if they play under control. ALot of it has to do with being smart on offense.
    Anyways , tell me who'de youde like in Rockets jersey next year?

    Ron Mercer can't shoot outside of 19 ft.

    I think you forgot a decimal.

    Try 1.9

    Why don't we talk about the coach we could get?

    How about a point guard we could get?

    Or maybe we can get Garnett for Francis, or some other big name player for Steve "what is a fast break?" Francis?

    It wasn't Rudy's fault when Yao did not call for a timeout on the last play.

    http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/news/archive/2003/02/27/sports2217EST0655.DTL

    "Every game, there's a mental mistake," Houston coach Rudy Tomjanovich said. "We've got to get a timeout on the last play. Just got to give yourself a chance. ... Those aren't little things; those are big things. We've got to stop making those kind of mistakes and think on our feet in the game."

    Rudy states "Every game". Players are making poor decisions on the court. It's not Rudy's fault.

    We need a coach more than anything. And Redd and Artest are pretty much untouchable. Cat > Harris & Mercer. Person is old. Nachbar will be better than Radmanovic hopefully.

    That's uncharacteristic for a coach who disn't call a timeout to say.

    I'm tired of using the excuse of us being the second youngest team in the league, but that is all I can think of when it comes to our stupid mental errors that gives us loses in all close games.
