Props to Cat

I also have to give props to Mobley for being the only one with enough balls to come right out and say "Yao Ming is our guy!"

 

Mobley couldn't remember Ming's name until someone said it

Everyone knows Ming's for better or worse is going to be an vast improvement at center.

 

All these people that want to trade Mobley are making a huge mistake. If you trade Mobes then the Rox better draft Jay Williams because Stevie sure as hell ain't sticken around. Mobley plays hard, is underpaid, and has heart. I for one want to see him stay.

 

No way we trade Mobley. In terms of value for money, he could be one of the greatest bargains in the NBA. I want him to retire as a Rocket.

 

MOBES05, You may be overeacting a bit. About 1% of this Boards members would be interested in pursuing a Mobley trade. He's our top offensive threat, and damn near irreplacable.


Smokey, man i have to say something about your sig/quote. That quote just goes to show what a stupid mindset some of these players have today. Something tells me winning a Dunk-On-Ming-Pot, even if it means only succeeding 1 times out of 10, is more of a motivation than winning the game by playing team basketball. Personally, punks like Queintin Richardson and their stupid notions entice me to pull more and more for foreigners, who'd drain 10 jumpers in your face for every succesful bling bling on a Yao Ming. Hell, i hope we draft Ming just for this reason. Quentin Richardsons a punk.

 

Rocketbooster: I agree about Mobley, but I think you're blowing the whole dunk thing out of proportion. I think Steve and his buddies would do the same thing along with players all over the league. Yao is a goofy looking freak who is just as much a target for getting posterized as Shawn Bradley. Until proven, he's all hype. By the way it'd be more like 5 out of 6 times, and that one time would be when Yao fouled him.

 

Just draft Ming and Mobley and Francis will look so much better with him grabbing all those missed shots.
