    I doubt this has anything to do with Cato. Oh, and I think the Rockets have pointed out enough in the media that they are not willing to take on any cap-heavy players. Whenever someone says THAT much about one subject, they mean it, so I doubt Big Country could be involved.

    Maybe it's another team. Damn, this is frustrating.

    Let me chime in. Yeah - looks like Cato to me but didn't OP say Hakeem is involved too? So Cato and Hakeem for a starter and who else? Then Doc Rocket mentioned Sunshine and cold ... so perhaps Suns and Vancouver maybe on a three way deal. Number one .... SAR is coming!!!!

    Heck - this is going to be a long night....

    That whole worthy of being number one bit makes me think of former No. 1 picks. There are 16 former No. 1 picks still in the NBA.

    ------------------
    The Rockets will be the NBA champions. Believe.

    Could just as easily be Chicago and Miami for the Cold and Sunshine references.

    So, Doc. Here's a chance to be less cryptic. What do you think of 24 High? And what is the name for the Francis alley-oop play around a Bullard (or Collier) pick at the high post after Bullard receives a pick from Thomas coming down the lane. Rudy often calls this for after a time-out.

    What is the name for the set with Francis and Mobley crosscutting around Mo' who holds the ball at the wing and hands off to Mobley? What are the other options?

    What is the play call name for the weakside Double Pick for Walt/Bullard and now Mobley. I've seen this run at the same time as 24 High. Is there a name for the set where both are run simultaneously?

    And biggest question of all, does Rudy consider the fundamental system to be a 4 out 1 Flex? Is there any Motion in our future?

    Enough with the cryptology. Let's see you really flex some muscles, and show how this BBS can influence the other media. Just give us the play names and system name, and ClutchPlays will do the rest.

    Michael Olowokandi
    Tim Duncan
    Allen Iverson
    Joe Smith
    Glenn Robinson
    Chris Webber
    Shaquille O'neal
    Larry Johnson
    Derrick Coleman
    Danny Manning
    David Robinson
    Patrick Ewing

    And one more that I can't quite remember . . .
