You think about how great this team would be with a 04-05 Tracy and a 06-07 Yao before he got injured. I think about it all the time we would be a dynasty in the making and maybe the greatest team ever.
I love the guys and we undoubtedly would have become a strong team with McGrady and Yao at their peak,but you are being much too overly optimistic. I think we could have a true contender for a NBA title,but it's very hard to predict that if we could even win one of them and absolutely impossible to even think that they could be the best team ever. I don't know how old you are but there have been far better teams than the hypothetical one you are proposing. The 94-95 Rockets would have beaten them for sure IMO,and possibly even the 93-94 Rockets.
I think we win a title for sure who this year could beat us with Tracy and Yao at their peak and the role players we have now. 94-95 Rockets would have been great to watch, but I think they could have beating the 93-94 team.
Yao/Andersen/Hayes Scola/Landry/Hayes Ariza/Battier McGrady/Budinger Brooks/Lowry Thats a pretty beast lineup. Barring health(I hate saying that ), the only question mark is backup center.
thats a killer lineup, but who would you guys have as a coach, as i think that plays a big part in team play , style and chemistry.. i love rick adelman, but i would have to go with jvg, dont know why yet
Dear T-Mac&Yao=RING, If you search for tenderness it isn't hard to find. You can have the love you need to live. But if you look for truthfulness, you might just as well be blind. It always seems to be so hard to give. Honesty is such a lonely word, T-Mac&Yao=RING Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard. And mostly what I need from you, T-Mac&Yao=RING.
"There was once a dream that was ROCKETS CHAMPIONSHIPS with YAO AND TRACY. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... it was so fragile. And I fear that it will not survive the winter. " Sincerely, Rocket River
