    Thought it was funny -- got notice that Lance Zierlein on his radio show the other day talked about how Kelvin Cato should play lying down, and he could still be just as effective as if he was standing up.

    Two big points made:

    1) His rebound numbers would not go down... in fact they may go up.
    2) Players would have to concern themselves with tripping over him and "initiating contact", which would result in an offensive foul or a travelling violation.

    Did you read his latest excerpt in the chronicle under the article "Olajuwon given ok to play"


    From the Houston Chronicle

    But Rockets center Kelvin Cato said defense has not been the problem.
    "Right now, I don't think it's anything we're not doing except we're not winning," Cato said. "There's too much emphasis on the defense. It's we're not making enough easy plays. We've got to get easier baskets at the beginning of the game."

    Too much emphasis on defense?????????


    KELVIN CATO!!!!!!! GET OFF YOU A** AND START EARNING YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!

    They informed him that he has to run all of the way to the other end of the court when the other team gets the ball...and that he may have to jump when he gets there.

    Kelvin Cato should play hungry.

    Not hungry in the figurative sense of desire, but hungry in the physical sense of not having eaten. I know I get ornery if I haven't eaten, maybe Cato would play better when he's mad.

    But the lying down thing could work too.

    Kelvin lay there like a slug... It was his only defense.
