With the turmoil the Blazers are experiencing, Rockets should make a move before it faded away. If the Rockets can get Wallace over here. He and Ming will be the next twin TOWERS. Wouldn't that be awesome?
You should say it WOULD be awesome. I don't see what we could trade the Blazers. KT and Cat? I dunno, they are in bad shape but I question our ability to work with them. Plus, how would Sheed and Yao go together? That could be a perfect mix of ice and fire or it could be a disaster.
How about working out a bigger deal where we wind up with Sheed and Anderson? Anderson would be a great compliment to Steve on the outside with his superior ballhandling and passing skills. Plus Sheed and Anderson would give us guys who have an immediate impact. I don't know who we could trade that they'd want, but starting with Cat wouldn't hurt. If we're convinced Mo is back and Ming is ready to stay in the starting lineup maybe Cato and Cat for Sheed and Anderson (maybe toss in KT). They need a center to replace Sabonis and Cat would help out with the scoring loss between Sheed and Anderson. I think a deal like that at least improves our ability to move the ball around and provides us with a starting quality big man at the forward spot (versus the aged veterans and young uns we have now). Food for thought, but I'm sure it will get bashed out of here.
Wallace is not a Rockets type. Everyone would explode after his frequent outbursts. Keep him far away from Houston,I want to keep on enjoying the Rox!
And he doesn't play hard. I believe he averages around 8 rebounds per game. Nothing special at all. And he sits on the 3 point line way too much. Plus you can count on a tech every other game.
This looks like a good deal...but I dont think it would work. Don't know why.. looks good on paper but doesn't feel right
What if his bald spot starts to grow..and becomes a distraction on court.....and then the refs would call a technical foul on Rasheed for everyplay for delay of game ..to cover up his bald spot..and and ..and...... JP I don't think Anderson is 100% healthy. His shots are falling but he doesn't seem to be the player he once was.
Wallace would just get Cato stoned all the time, and then we would have a team separated into two cliques- the stoners and the jocks. Do you remember how horrible this arrangement was in high school?
It worked out alright for me as a stoned jock...but reptilexqc might get stoned for this one if he doesn't get off Rasheed's jock... [mmm....cheese...]
Wallace is a wacko... but imagine Ming and Wallace guarding the paint... First they see the 7'6" guy ready to swat the ball out of the stadium... Then they see a psycho who would swat anyone out of the stadium... I'd think they have second thoughts.
