Total bs. I don't know what season you were watching, but Juwan was a tremendous boost during our late season run that year and in the playoffs we needed a power forward that could score more than ever. Unless, of course you're cool with Flyin' Ryan Bowen being that man. Juwan could have only helped us in that series, don't be ridiculous.
I agree with JB. Juwan's clothesline jumper had a horrible habit of bouncing out long and igniting Dallas' fastbreak. Not to mention the slowness factor with him and both out there at the same time just killed us against quicker teams.
Rockets woulda destroyed Dallas if Juwan was healthy in 05. Hell, gimme Shane in that series, and Dallas gets beat down.
