NBA Defensive Player of the Year award (1995, 1997, 1998, 2001) NBA All-Defensive First Team three times (1997, 1998, 2001) NBA All-Star Games (1992, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002) first Rockets player with a stretch of 11 or more consecutive double-figure rebounding performances since Charles Barkley (12 games: 11/28/97-12/22/97) NBA Finals as the Sixer's starting Center Believe in Deke!
I believe he is really old... I believe he can be an effective back up in limited minutes.... I believe we need a new starting C or we will has the smallest team in the league.
laugh now suckers, when deke puts on his superman cape and flys through the sky to block shots, you'll spill your kungfu ramen noodles.
Ironic that Adelman hasn't really played Deke all season long and now that we can really use him...the poor guy doesn't have enough minutes logged this season to break a sweat. I would love to see Deke take over and dominate in Yao's absence. I wish him good luck.
DOFs Unit! DOFs Unit! There's a game to play and there's everything Deke news to get out. From being invited to the State of the Union Address to putting fungis cream on his big toe...I want to know it! <img src="http://images.chron.com/photos/2007/01/10/4776636/311xInlineGallery.jpg"> No bellyaching! No excuses! No tanking! We got a farewell tour to kick off right now! We got a superstar to back up...a superstar butt to kick into gear. Some vets to lead... some rookies to chest bump. some elbows to throw...and a finger to wave. We aren't done, yet. Deke has not left the building! I begins now!
