    This guy gets constantly bashed on here and I dont see why...i mean sure he doesn't have great offensive range but he runs the the team a whole lot better than moochie could've eva thought about. With all the players we have looking for their own shot out there its nice ta see a player willing to give up tha rock. If I'm crazy somebody say so but in my mind we could always use another young hungry guy looking to distribute the ball...

    Character issues. Lots of character issues make him less than desirable. Hope he can reform.

    Well...um...in case u didn't notice Moochie does the same thing and plays 10-15 mins a game...u cant honestly xpect somebody to step in and be overly sharp when seeing their first REAL action in an NBA game, we all know how yao fared his first few weeks and we all know he has a lil game...

    He sucks...real nice analysis Mr. Vitale...is it too much to ask that you actually think for a second and tell me wut u find so bad about dude's game instead of bustin out wit the typical "He neva played, i neva saw him play extended minutes, therefore he must suck comment"...i'd xpect more from some guy thats been around so long

    We haven't really seen him play extended minutes. From the little minutes he has given, he hasn't looked really good. Lets just see if he can play during the summer league where he should get some extended minutes.Than we can really judge him, but than again, Dan Langhi looked good in the summer league.

    sorry, a bit off topic, but has any fresno state player (from the tarkanian era) ever done anything in the nba?

    courtney alexander (too high an opinion of himself)
    chris jeffries (unknown)
    tito maddox (reputation for being a "troublemaker")

    I'm sure if Tito could've run the team half as well as Moochie could've (which isn't saying much at all) the Rockets would've given him a shot.

    This board's insiders haven't been saying much lately, but i believe Doc Rocket said two things about Tito before he went on vacation.

    1. He has quite possibly the worst shot in the entire league.

    2. He is an absolutely horrible person.

    Now, since Tito didn't get very many minutes, and no one here seems to know him personally, it's impossible to know these things for sure. However, Doc Rocket is probably the most trusted insider on this board, so there you go.

    I don't recall anybody ever saying Tito Maddox sucks because I don't think anybody gives a crap about him. He sucks!

    I like him. He's fast. He looks like a troll. He can set people up. He's tall. I think he's all right. But...when he played...he missed every single 3 point shot he ever attempted and he even airballed one...HMM...ACTUALLY, he missed every single field goal he ever attempted. And he shoots like 50% from the free throw line. And when ever he drives inside..it looks good....but his layup gets rejected and stuffed all the way back to Fresno State.

    And remember.....one game.....against the Spurs.....he was a no show! No one even realized this except the team...and he had no reason for not attending the game...and he was fined.

    Bad!

    And he wasn't eligible for college or whatever...something like that....for accepting money?

    He's all right....he has some potential. I hope he can find a job opening somewhere...not the Rockets!

    SLA...thanx alot man, i mean finally an educated opinion on why his game is perceived around here to "suck"...i have no need to disagree with u, he's not a shooter, whatsoever...he is somebody who can play a lil D and get tha ball to other ppl...i'm not saying that he's a great player or ever will b one...i jus think with the combination of his size, ability to create, and WILL (somethin moochie has zero of)...he'd be a betta option as our backup PG
