    Yao - Cato - Oakley would be a great rotation.

    Francis - Mobley - Jackson - Pike - A Griff - Boki

    That rotation looks great!!!!!!

    This team is ideal in terms of chemistry. Oakley has never been good for chemistry, and he will be a cancer to this team. In the words of Nancy Reagan, just say no :)

    You guys got to be kidding?! The Oak man maybe a good fit for some teams, but the Rockets have no need for him. What can he bring to the Rockets which we don't have right now? Enforcer? Nap! We are a physical defensive team right now, with shot blockers in Cato & Yao; Rebounder? we've got Yao & Cato in the middle. I say PASS.

    No to Oakley.

    1. It's not clear that he would even crack the rotation with MoTay and Griffin out.

    2. We need to give Padgett, Braggs and A Griffin (spot minutes) playing time because they may still be around in 2-3 years to contribute to a championship run.

    3. Assuming Oakley still had gas in his tank, we aren't on a championship run this year. We're looking to make the playoffs and then as much noise as possible. Oakley will not be the difference between making it and missing it.
