    I think you are delusional and crazy.. and well stupid if you can honestly think that Yao is going to be our leading MPG guy. He should be, but especially in Adelmans system, even in JVG's system.. there is no way dude

    Can't forget about Morey, he's more than surpassed my expectations as a first year GM

    You mean something intelligent like "The Franchise is enough I reckon......."

    Wow. Very articulate. Thanks for contributing.

    Mike James and Aaron Brooks arent going anywhere. in fact i have a feeling that Aaron Brooks will be our best PG by midseason. If we move Head, we're lacking perimeter guys that can shoot 3s and penetrate. our only perimeter guys who can shoot 3s and penetrate are Mike James and Aaron Brooks.

    I thought Head didn't have any handles to drive, or maybe his interior offense wasn't all that great. Stevie can drive and shoot too, if his knees hold up, and I do remember Shane driving a couple times last year, but it was probably frowned upon by JVG.

    I'm thinking our outlook is really bright and I'm excited about SF3 returning. I concur with many others on the board that Skip, JLIII, and posibly Head or Snyder are on there way out for another big man.

    We might just need another big with the signings of Hayes and Deke in the works. Hope we don't get rid off Head and Snyder, those guys will benefit in Rick's offense. While still thinking Head has great upside

    Welcome back Steve. I didn't think I'd be so happy to find out.

    I hope head stays and i think he will, i dont care for synder,

    Morey deserves a standing ovation

    Im not gonna question anything he does ever again!!

    Even if he signs a deer to play the back up pf im just gonna assume that the deer will win 6th man of the year

    LOL we should get Mobley back so the NBA we can make the name of John Weisbrod the official name for getting screwed in a trade where all the players you traded for ended back up on the same team.

    Used in a sentence it would be something like this, " The Rockets totally Weisbroded the Spurs"

    Thus making "Weisbrod" a household name that would go down in history as one of the dumbest moves an NBA franchise could possibly do. :D

    That was referring to getting Cuttino Mobley as well.......
    In that case, Francis is enough, we don't need Cat who is possibly a greater ballstopper than Steve because of his atrocious passing....
    Hence, "Franchise is enough"
