The front line of Eddie and Yao will block more shots than any other 4/5 tandem in the league and the Rockets will lead the league in blocks this year!
He DESERVES to play, but I would throw a big "IF" in there. IF Griffin gets the minutes. Don't get me wrong, EG is my favorite player on the team (bc I like a plyer that plays at both ends), but I tend to think that Mo will get more mins than we think thus limiting the opportunities for blocks. I will be pissed, but oh well. Maybe Mo will be showcased and will build some trade value and KT will move in to backup EG. Wishful thinking, but it never hurts to dream!
