    I love random facts.

    oooh...oooh....that reminds me, I love Mobley because he hasn't missed a wide-open slam yet like Francis and Hakeem keep doing. [​IMG]

    LMAO! or whatever that means. [​IMG]

    partner,

    sorry... I was totally raised on Hailey Mills (sp?) movies as a kid. That and R&H flicks such as South Pacific.

    But, as a 28 year old male I'll have to admit that Pollyana did change my life (even though I hide behind the Pollyana insult when dealing w/ TheCat's niceties--- you did miss about 20 other Pollyana references by the way).

    Is '03 going to make fun of me now that I admitted watching Pollyana?

    you're right,

    here's two more

    And here's where I remember you first saying it, since I've been here (this is the archive pull you mention above). Barkley bashing was not Pollyanic for sure.

    I love the fact that he is fearless. That is something you just don't get from many people.

    To me, he is like Vernon Maxwell on anti-depressants. Sure, he's crazy, but not "gun-in-the-car-on-my-way-to-shoot-my-wife" crazy. [​IMG]

    He's a good penetrated and can get to the line a lot (where he shoots a good percentage). That's my favorite thing about his game.

    The 2 best players at getting to the hole are allen iverson and Cat, and that says alot about Cuttino.

    What can I say that hasn't already been said??

    I love the fact that he comprises half of what will soon be known as the baddest and fastest guard combo in the league.

    I love the fact that when the Rockets start wipping all the "elite" teams,the national media will HAVE to show clips from the games because either Stevie or Mobes will have given the opposing center a nasty-ass facial!!! [​IMG]

    But the thing that will impress me the most will be when he starts handing out the assists instead of tryin to force what isn't there.

    OOPS!
    Sorry HP, I didn't mean to get off-topic there for a minute. [​IMG]

    Also, on my list of negatives, most of those have to do with the mental aspect of the game. Hopefully he will overcome those mental deficiencies and work on his defense and become an even better player.

    It is important to note, that although Mobley and Francis make good defensive plays, they are not yet good defensive players.
