Lets say that Cat leaves, Drew is really a SG, not a Pg, maybe he could play backup. He shoots well, and if he could learn to drive. The only set back is his lack of D. ------------------ Rockets games are like a box of chocolates, you never know whacha your gonna get.
Of course, how much worse could he be at playing defense than Cat? If Mobley leaves I do think that makes Drew more valuable to this team. I still wouldn't mind the Rockets picking up another defensive stopper. I wouldn't mind it being R. Rhodes. Actually, I think his offense would be better in the new offense than it was when he was here before. The lanes will be open for him to go to the basket. ------------------
I agree, if we lose Cat I think we would be better served biding our time with Drew. We can pick someone up next season. Let the others develop some more chemistry in the meantime. ------------------ "I'll take a Dream Shake for two, please."
Drew's probably calling Mobley every day, singing the praises of the Raptors. ------------------ Rockets Draft Obligations Summary http://www.gaffordstudios.cjb.net/
Jay--You've outdone yourself this time. Total bigotry. You run around and label people as "necks" yet you are lower than you're name calling. Get off your high horse and get a freaking life! ------------------
Hey, you closet racist. I remember a team with Bird, McHale, Ainge, Walton, Jerry S., Wedman, and a few other white guys. Drew will never be an answer for the Rockets. He is just not athletic enough to complete effectively on the NBA level consistantly. I was disheartened to hear that Phoenix signed Delk, because I though we had gotten Drew off our team. ------------------
the "racism" is for the team to willfully engineer its makeup for reasons not completely related to basketball ability. mobley must remain a rocket- they have the money to spend, and the players want him here. if they say "adios" to him it will be a huge mistake- he's twice the player bryce drew is. ------------------
No sir, the racism occurs when somebody like yourself, with ZERO evidence, plays the race card in a discussion. You are engineering a racial problem to further your agenda- whatever that may be. It is a sad world we live in when so many people try to force us to see EVERYTHING in terms of skin color. MLK Jr.'s vision of a color-blind society will continue to elude fruition unless we quit refusing to trust eachother. ------------------
THE TEAM DOES NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO SPEND!!! THE ROCKETS ARE VERY LIMITED IN WHAT THEY CAN DO WITH MOBLEY!!! THAT'S THE WHOLE PROBLEM!!! Thank you for your attention. ------------------ [This message has been edited by TraJ (edited July 19, 2000).]
lol. I'm rapidly growing impatient waiting for all the peices to fall into place. ------------------ - hoopjunkie "when you come in da HOOD... things change."
please tell me you guys aren't setting up the rockets for having behaved credibly if they somehow lose mobley, get croshere, and keep drew and bullard. you can't seriously believe an all-white team can win in the nba, can you? ------------------
