    if this guy becomes a rocket the first thread that will go up is:

    "why are there no videos off Mbenga passing?"


    because he doesnt pass the ball the guy is a black hole on offense moreso than Kenny Thomas, pass him the ball the shot will be going up

    I agree with you, but I think he may be used to it:

    My hatred for Sasha Vujacic requires that I cheer for DJ Mbenga after I saw this:

    <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/AYzCqe_tglA&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AYzCqe_tglA&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

    Even Odom punked Vujacic. ODOM! :grin:

    Kobe made the comparison!? That's cold. Rule number one: when you are the best player in the world, don't make fun of anyone. Kobe needs to be thanking God that he is not in prison.

    So like Von, does that mean he will become one of DaDa's favorite players then?

    more like pops' pops...Mbenga is older and 7ft tall. If pops were 7ft tall i doubt we would have waived him.

    Mbenga is better than Pops. Mbenga is bigger than Pops. I know he had some great alley oop slams in the preseason, but you guys really over-rate Pops.

    I'm sure back when he was playing, Jordan got the same memo, crumpled it up, took a fadeaway shot and nailed it into the wastebasket.

    I like DJ

    Side note: I think he was close to be executed at one point in his life.

    Mbenga has the offense as Chuck Hayes.

    If he plays, the opposing team will sag off him and defend us 5 on 4.

    Wouldn't mind having him, Even if he is like Chuck Hayes, he has the presence to be an interior threat at the least. Like said and done, even if you are a poor defender with great size, you are still an average defender at worse.

    The question is whether someone who is that foolish will outbid the Rockets by a significant margin... cuz it would be foolish for Mbenga not to take the fool's money.
