I can't even believe how poorly this season has been progressing . . . We finished the game with only six players! WTF is that all about!? We have a couple players that we should be able to trade to get a draft pick or two: Mutombo: he's a stud and when it comes down to playoff time, I'd be willing to bet somebody is going to be interested in him Wesley: a solid backup two guard who can hit shots when he's not forced to run the offense If this season ends as bad as it has begun, I think we might be able to come out of it with a quality young player or draft pick . . . That being said, if Yao and Tmac come back soon, I think they're going to be pretty frusterated and MAD. With our entire team healthy, we can beat anybody. Let's just hope Yao/Tmac/etc come back with a fire . . . we can make the playoffs . . . and win . . . as long as we don't have to face Robert Horry in the first round . . .
I've read this post three times, and what I get out of it everytime is: "we should trade players for younger players/picks, because when we're healthy we can beat anybody." Forgive me for not following.
we started the game with 9 players we lost two players when they fouled out now...by my admittedly bad math, that leaves us with 7 and you can forget about trading either Deke or JB...they both said they only came back this season for us...they have no desire to be anywhere else and will retire rather than go to another team. any other ppl we have worth trading are injured. forget the trade thing...it aint happening. we duke it out thru this season with who we have...win or lose. if we lose...we got a low draft pick in a weak draft...we will be lucky to get someone as good as Lutha.
Well, I didnt saw the game but according to the nba.com box score, the rockets start with 9 players, but 3 were fouled out: (baxter, howard, alston), I dont know if this is right, here is the link: http://www.nba.com/games/20060110/HOUCHA/boxscore.html
heh yea, I know I remembered Lonnie this morning.. Kinda easy to ovrelook Big Lonnie, he plays so rarely. sooo...ignore my math, the rest of my post still stands. I could edit, but what the hell...when I make a mistake, Im not ashamed if ppl see it.
