    Clutch is commissioner stern of this board. who's MVP? that's a topic of debate. I know I'm at least the defense player of the year. I'm defending the Rockets legacy from haters, fake fans, newbs, and evil.

    I don't remember that, but I remember how I thought Bonzi was going to be a real impact player, and yet, under JVG he hardly ever played. I was one of the few who liked the Jackson trade; now look who he landed us. Bon Bon was a real disappointment to me. Hopefully Ron Ron won't be.

    Has anybody heard Tru Warier's album "My world"? I actually like a few songs off of it. He raps about ben wallace missin free throws, david stern not being ghetto, and some other stuff.

    Hail Tru Warier! :cool:

    Unlike green bay, I would welcome pryuen back. The man is a clutchfans legend! His legacy will never be forgotten here! :cool:

    clutchfans legend? i wouldnt go that far, i appreciate all the hard work he puts in translating articles but he doesnt even come close to making my list of top 20 posters or so on this bbs.

    apparently at least to me his legacy wasnt as grandiose as you make it out to be I havent really been aching for a pryuen thread lately.



    now tinman is a different story though I am always looking for a new tinman thread to read

    I would say tinman is more of an annoyance then a legend compared to pryuen. All that guy talks about is his fetish with vernon maxwell.

    Ok, Congrats! He averaged 20ppg one year on a crappy Kings team, Look at his numbers for the pacers. Thats what you're going to get from him! I could be wrong but Battier was runner up last year for DPOY. All that equals...Small upgrade. And before this trade, Bobby Jackson would have easily been the leading scorer off the bench. I will say that the best part of the Rockets landing Arrest, I mean Artest is that another west conference powerhouse didn't. Still gave up too much for him though...

    well, I met Hakeem and he blessed me to fight for Clutch City, so therefore I have one thing on pryuen.

    don't be jealous.

    I personally think YoYo is more important than Pryuen. He's in Laker country , south central, compton, and he's still representing the Rockets!

    Yoyo gives us his personal experiences at the Rockets games plus pictures!
    he translates what's in his heart!

    I gotta agree with Rover. I don't understand why tinman thinks his sarcastic and condescending threads will earn him adoration and respection on these boards. Pryuen contributes a lot of pictures and is straightforward with his want for respect.

    If tinman genuinely cares about teaching the new members about the history of the Rockets I would have a lot of respect for him. But he just wants to make fun of them.

    well too bad, pryuen is 'semi' retired. you'll have to deal with tinman..

    FOREVER!!

    I don't care about your adoration or 'respection'. I only care about spreading the truth.

    if you don't like Tupac then go listen to Michael Bolton.

    Yeah, but Bonzi is sort of a transparently self-serving dick. Ron Artest is slightly insane, but he always plays hard and gets along well with his teammates. If you polled the Rockets players about who they'd rather have on the team next season, Bonzi or Artest, I think Artest would win by quite a margin.

    The thing is tinman acts exactly as pryuen, but just doesn't use the red font and rolling eyes that pryuen was infamous for. At least pryuen contributed current news and articles. I mean how many maxwell videos can one watch?

    you do realize I was here before Pryuen do you?
    how could i be copying pryuen if I was here like 3-4 years before him?
    maybe I have a Delorian or have that power that Japanese kid has in heroes.

    for your information, there are TONs of videos that are needed to be found about those great Rocket teams. I'm sure the pure fans here will find them like JBII

    you can say that Pryuen is better than me, that's fine. but don't say I'm copying him!

    Pryuen=MC Hammer "you can't touch this"
    I'm Rick James Bieatch! "Super Freak!"
