Make your prediction on what will happen in this year's offseason..lottery/free agents etc.. come on just lay it all out there! ..what do you think the Rockets will really do...trade down .. luck out with the #1 pick..Odom ...Rashard Lewis..it's your moment to shine and forsee the future!
1) The Rockets will get a pick somewhere between #1 and #13 2) The Rockets will pick somebody in the draft this year 3) Around mid August, somebody will claim to have seen Steve and Cuttino renting <i>Captain Corelli's Mandolin</i> at the video store, but won't have any pics...
RT will draft Borchardt with the 3rd pick and convey #15 to Memphis. Borchardt will be the missing piece of his soon to be unveiled twin high post offense with Collier. Borchardt will miss 58 games this season with foot problems and we'll be back in the lotto next season. Stern will feel so sorry for our plight he'll give us the #1, which we'll select Lebron James with. Everyone will hail RT as genius for drafting Borchardt so we could continue the tankfest and end up landing James.
We will draft Dunleavy forcing me to root for a Duke alum We will make the playoffs thanks to Steve's MVP run (he finishes 3rd in the voting behind Jason Kidd and Shaq) in which he averages 24 ppg, 7 rpg and 7 apg. Mo T will have midseason abdomen surgery in which they will cut him open and find Chondra Levy. Eddie Griffin will beat up Jason Collier and make us think that Eddie is back to his old ways, only to prove us wrong and help lead us to the playoffs We find out that Rudy T and Dennis Murphy (Dateline) are long lost brothers and were separated at birth.
It's about time someone mentioned that. I've saying that forever, but whenever I post on this site I never think about Dennis Murphy. Good call NJ.
We resign Matt Maloney for a 3 year, 51 million dollar contract, waive Moochie. Chucky Brown has a breakout Western Conf. Finals series, due to season ending injuries by Webber, Divac, Pollard, AND Funderburke, and averages 21 and 10 against LA. We sign Chucky to an Austin Crosheresque contract. Kelvin Cato makes bold predictions on how he'll lead the league in blocks. DaDakota starts endless threads about Francis being a whiner, not a winner. Heypartner continues the "knee-jerk" posts, and eventually is run off the board, but comes back under another name, easily he is found out, because he can't rightfully change or cloak his posting style. Did I miss anything?
The Rockets will make the playoffs. Steve Francis will not talk in 3rd person at all during the season. Playoff seedings: 1. Sacramento 2. Dallas 3. Los Angeles 4. San Antonio 5. Blazers 6. Timberwolves 7. Clippers 8. Rockets Rockets in a dramatic 5 knock off the Kings. They make it to the WCFs where they play the Dallas Mavericks in a "Wild West Shootout." In Game 7, Moochie Norris hits a three at the buzzer to win by one. Clutchcity.net is so hit by traffic it shuts down. We play the Celts and win in 5. Finalsbound is happy.
1. KT and a draft pick are gone. 2. Eddie is the backup PF. 3. Mo is fat and out of shape. Can't get his minutes and get's hurt a month into the season. 4. Eddie steps up big. He makes mistakes, but it clear we have our Power Forward of the future. 3.4blk pg. 5. Steve has many fewer migranes due to a strict diet, but is out for a stint due to injury. 6. Moochie play decent (as always), but we are impressed with our point gaurd from the first round of the draft. 7. Glen Rice is serviceable and shares minutes with Morris. 8. The Rockets are in with a very close race for the 6,7,8 seeds with Utah, Seattle, LAC, & Minnesota. 9. Tries to play ball and gets a littel respect from players going to the hole, but he still manages to piss me off. 10. Rockets eek in and win only one game in the first round.
1. we will get the #7 pick in the draft, while NY gets the #2 2. we send the #7,kt, and torres to LA for odom, kandiman and 2nd rounder 3.francis and mobley end the season both averaging over 24 a game 4. rockets get the #6 seed in the play-offs, UTAH doesnt make it at all 5. we lose to dallas in the first round
In a perfect world... KT comes to camp at 230 and a dead eye from distance and gets the nod a the 3, and rips the leauge up. You all dismount Griffins junk faster than Mo T at a buffet and land gracefully on Kenny's Mary Lou Retten style.
