I think Ming will average more like 12ppg, 8rpg, 2.5bpg. He'll prolly be a little streaky his first couple of yrs ala Eddie Griffin, but I think...
Why don't we get Adonal Foyle, he's a warrior :D ? I think Kenny Thomas has shown a lot of heart the past couple yrs, and its a chame that...
I think the Rockets havn't done a very good job at all with Griffin. Although he's only 19, he wont get any better if he's just standing at the...
I saw in the Chronicle a couple of days ago an article on Jabaar wanting to coach so badly that he was coaching some no-name High school team....
I HIGHLY doubt Tskittles will be there at #15, but if he is, more power to us. I think Nachbar is a more realistic outlook and could very well be...
Here's an article by Sam SMith of the tribune. All indications are that the Houston Rockets will select China's Yao Ming with the No. 1 pick in...
Now that Ming is in the bag, rumors are that we have to give the SHangai Sharks a player (hehehe). Since its the season of trade proposals, here...
I'm pretty sure the Rockets will be looking for a SF @ #15, and I've heard they like Nachbar. But Jarrod Jeffries has gotten a LOT bigger since...

:rolleyes:
Usually, when a top tier prospects like Ming comes around, their weaknesses are magnified by about a 1000 times. They did it when Shaq came out...
I vbelieve they already have when they went 45-37 on a team that really wasn't THAT talented, or atleast enough to have a record that good. I...

Here's mine. team - player - NBA Comparison 1.rockets - Ming (Ralph Sampson) 2.bulls - jay williams (stephon marbury) 3.warriors- drew...
First of all, Rocketguy is making ALL of this up. This is the same guy who said the Rockets had David Robinson in their pocket and that Chicago...
I think Ralph Sampson is the best comparison for Yao. He's got that tall, wiry figure with good ball handling and decent athleticism like Sampson....
I've seen them both play, James live and Ming online, and I would want the Rockets to pick Ming. Centers nowadays are hard to come by, and we...
