    I just get frustrated that the same mistakes and the same excuses keep happening. Two words: Habit Insanity Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Cat isnt exactly a rookie; but he doesnt play smart. Moochie doesnt act like he knows the basics of the game; hes a veteran too. We just need to use our heads, half the time we are our own worst enemy.

    I understand ur frustration but think of it this way...


    WE are 1 step closer to getting whoever the hell we want in the draft.

    AND we already have a solid foundation for years to come as is.

    Whenever the team loses, I just think of how incredibly good the team should be in about 2 or 3 years from now, when Griffin starts realizing that crazy insane potential of his and forms the ultimate 1-2 punch with Francis.

    imagine if we add someone like yao ming to the mix as well...

    crazy stuff

    Problem is, we arent horrible with Francis. We are bad, but not bad enough to land a good lottery pick.

    i love our nucleus alot, francis, griffin and mobley is awesome no matter what anyone says. we just need everyone to fit together instead of trying to do more than their talents allow. they haven't played together very long, in a couple years watch out. but just for the hell of it, imagine stojacovic in our current lineup hitting all those jumpers that walt bricks. peja is the PERFECT player for this system that rudy won't give up on. you can laugh but put stojacovic as our starting 3 and we are a top 3-5 team, easy. thank goodness walt's contract is up, his jumpshot could be the difference maker in a lot of games but he can't hit crap. and that's the fault with rudy, he doesn't have the player at the 3 to make his offense run at it's best but he still forces it.

    I think we could trade Mo Taylor for Fortson and Murphy. We need inside muscle and they need inside room for Jamison.

    Why do people keep thinking we have any shot at Ming? He is going #1 or #2 at the absolute lowest. We do not have a chance at those picks with Chicago and Miami around.

    Throw in Golden State, Denver, Memphis, Cleveland, Atlanta and New York and there are a bunch of really bad teams that haven't had the injury problems we have had. I strongly doubt we get a pick in the top seven when all is said and done unless Francis or Griffen goes down for the year. Maybe even not then.
