anyone else having this issue? I sit through the 15 second ad and then get "The requested video is not available" edit: no responses, i'm gonna guess it's some sort of work network thing. screw it, i'm going home early for this
The Rafer cruise ship has sailed and it aint coming back! Martin's has just arrived. Hop on board and enjoy the ride! :grin:
^^ lol. Anyway, Kevin sounds like a great team player. I'm willing to give each of these guys a clean slate and I'm stoked to give each one of them a chance. I'm feeling a lot better about our versatility going into the 2nd half of the season - a much more balanced roster. Losing Landry stings, but if we can make the playoffs it will all be worth it.
My heart still aches for Carl. Just an incredibly sad photo of the two now that they're no longer teammates.
This is the NBA fellas. All of these guys have had teammates in college they had to say goodbye too. Nobody died. They will be on Skype talking to each other in no time.
K-Money: "Hopefully I'm your shooting guard for the next 10 years" I love this guy. I think we should also give Armstrong a chance. 25 years old and he still has a lot of potential. Can't wait to see these guys on the court!
At least we got two 6'11 guys and Hill is listed at 6'10. Everyone knows we need height. Hopefully Adelman doesn't just sit them on the bench though. He always seems to stick with the same things and acts confused with his whole I don't know what I'm going to do attitude.
Hilton Armstrong mix: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Xb0wS2cydMU&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Xb0wS2cydMU&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> Nice block he had on superman.
Kevin Martin sounds like a cool guy. Jared Jefferies seemed to be trying to sell himself pretty hard. Armstrong seemed ready to compete and didn't really get a feeling out of Hill. Seemed like what he is, a young guy getting a start in the NBA. As far as food though, I think you'd be surprised at the all sorts these guys eat. They burn off so much they can afford to eat stuff like that. I mean provided they actually do work out, unlike some of the players we've had here in the past.
I have this odd feeling that all four of these guys are going to really mesh well with this team and we are going to make a surprise run in the playoffs as the 7th seed. We just got 3 guys with height something we had been missing and none of these players were really getting big chances on their teams.
From what Adelman said, it seems Martin and Jefferis will be in the rotation right way, but Hill & Armstrong may need to wait. http://www.nba.com/rockets/video/2010/02/19/20100219AdelmanMOV-1236116/index.html
I really hope we actually give Hilton Armstrong a shot. It would be horrible to get him in a trade and continue to play Chuck Hayes over him. Don't get me wrong, I love Chuck Hayes, but we've been desperate for some size defensively and we finally have it. It would be dumb to sit him on he bench all season long.
