    After reading Clutch's report it seems that Tyronne may well be a player the Rockets really need. Blocking 6 shots and grabing 7 boards with what I can remember he also had 7 point (correct me if I'm wrong). Imagine Him and Kelvin swatting shots together! Could this be the beginning of the new "Twin Towers"? By the way how did he go today?

    I also think that this could be his year to make the team. They say he's bulked up. I'm no sure how much Hakeem will be able to play and Collier really can't play against the big centers in the NBA. So its either Pig Miller who I really like or Tyrone Washington whom will take less money and be the backup plan if the dream can't play much(injuries, breathing, ect..). When Houston let go of Thomas Hamilton 7'3 330(only here to play against Shaq) I knew we would need a backup center this season and honestly Washington looks to be the only one, Pig is just a little too short, still would like to keep him though(good team player, chemistry).

    i heard CD say T needed to rebound which he is doing right now,if he keeps it up he could find himself trying to earn a spot in the rotation in preseason.but it is still the summer leagues so you never know.

    I also hope Big Tyronne will get a chance to play for us this season. He's a really good defender, athletic, great rebounder, great hustle-player, and has shown some flashes of offense also. I love Pig and I hope we keep him, but I would prefer Tyronne taking Pig's minutes and more. I think Pig would just be happy playing OCCASIONALLY, earning a paycheck, and helping the team out morally. I actually hope Tyronne cracks the consistent rotation maybe as the backup center or pf but there's not much room for him unless someone gets injured. In that case, gettin Tyrone will be a very good move; someone is bound to be injured anyway. It always happens with our big men.
