Happy birthday Asik and thanks for a great season. I was more than impressed with him last year. I thought he would be a decent center when we signed him but I had no idea he would rebound and play defense as well as he did.
Houston prides itself on having quality centers, and Omer is no exception. Happy Birthday, big fella!
Love this thread. All this talk about Howard makes us forget that Omer is by far our best center since Yao... Hope he retires a Rocket.
When he made that bank shot in the 4qrt against san antonio, I knew that he would not back down from anyone and be one hell of a center for us. here's to hoping you will stay with us
LOL. Happy Birthday Omer! <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>To celebrate Omer Asik's birthday today, the entire city is hoping to receive word he's been replaced in the starting lineup.</p>— ClutchFans (@clutchfans) <a href="https://twitter.com/clutchfans/statuses/352832197234917376">July 4, 2013</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
My favorite game was game 5 of the 1st round series with OKC when they tried hack-Asik and failed because he kept making most of his FTs.
Happy Birthday OA!!! It's easy to root for guys like Omer. Quiet, hardworking and productive. A perfect teammate and fans dream in this day and age.
Really don't wanna see him being traded even if it means bringing in Dwight & possibly Smith. Happy Birthday to BIG O ! Hope to see you still in a Rockets uniform next season. All the best!!
Happy 27th Birthday big guy!! Asik is the sole reason I won't be upset if Dwight doesn't pick us. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/443Np4dt_A8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Happy birthday Omer. I would MUCH rather win a championship with you than with Dwight. Keep improving your game and good luck wherever you end up.
