    Well, the first week is over, and it is time for some good old fashioned spirited Rocket's talk.

    I hope you enjoy it, and if not....my humblest apologies.

    :D

    Nice analyst DD. I love the enthuisiam interesting to watch. You would be good on radio.

    Totally agree with Aaron Brooks. Glad we have him he is a potential all-star this season, I know there is CP3, Nash, DW, but Aaron will prove to be in that league with them.

    Lol. Great analysis. A bit corny :D

    Few comments:

    -I don't think Tracy's back is a problem anymore, especially after this past 6 months with Grover. I think Tracy has finally balanced
    his body build under Grover's workouts. But yes, the knee is a BIG problem. Like you said, we'll have to wait and see.

    -And to what you said about trading Tracy... What do you think this team needs?
    23 Million is a lot of money. We could pick up a great player at any position with that kind of money, but where do we need an upgrade?

    Do you think looking for a starting PG is the answer? I thought Brooks has developed into that role..

    Center? No, the organization seems set on Yao Ming. And behind him, we have Andersen and Hayes.

    PF? Scola seems like a great fit at that position, but we'd have to resign him. Plus, we have Landry and Pops. I could see us maybe dropping Scola ( :( )
    and adding a young star talent at the PF position.. That could make sense. Bosh/Amara/etc.

    SF... We just signed Ariza into a pretty big deal, so he seems an almost set starter at that position. And we have Battier behind him, and Chase also possibly grabbing
    some minutes at the 3.

    Lastly.. SG.. You seem as though you want to keep this position open by trading TMac for Budinger to develop into our "future starter"..
    Well, that means we should cut Wade, Johnson, and the other big FA SGs out of the picture..



    I dunno DD... I think we should bring a healthy TMac in and implement him into this excellent system that's going on right now.. if things don't work out, okay get rid of him.. sign a PF so Chase can develop into a "future starter".. (Deriving from what you said)

    If things DO work out, have him play around 30 minutes a game to keep him healthy/rested, and give the rest to Chase. Plenty of time for a rookie. I don't see him becoming a "perennial all-star", so let him come off the bench for a few years (assuming we resign TMac or another star SG).. and down the road, he will be starting.

    LOL - repped......I went to Floyd's barber shop here in Austin, I had a russian woman cut my hair, because my usual guy Bob was out.

    They do the hot towel and neck shave with a straight edge, it is AWESOME !!!

    Thanks for the comments people, keep em coming...

    That is the intent - to have fun, being a fan should be fun, right?

    And doing these is a way I can show that a lot of what I say on here is not meant as serious as it reads......

    Nice analysis DD! It is early but I agree with most of your opinions. I live in Austin too so maybe we can grab a beer and watch a Rox game sometime.

    Trevor Ariza's dribbling is not as bad as Artest's. Artest's dribbling was like a mix of Lebrons crab dribble and Zach Randolph's attempting to crossover the whole Raptor's team.....dribble.

    As usual great vid DD.
