    Ah, but you don't have my nice segue to the Hula Girl!

    (Great choice - I wish I'd thought of it. I've eaten there many times. There must be some way to get a good looking, half dressed girl that's somehow related to Hut's. Anyone have some ideas?)

    But he holds the ball just as much as Curry.

    The things I remember the most about Allen Leavell

    1) The "right angle" free throw shot.
    2) His play aggravated me.
    3) My earliest memories of being a Rockets fan are from his rookie year
    4) He decked a referee and was arrested for it. Don't do this, kids.

    But I still have fond memories of those Rockets teams and Leavell even though Allen was no all-star. :grin:

    I have fond memories of that team, but it hurt when we lost Lucas, and then as "average" as Leavell was, he ended up injured.

    And everyone got significantly worse bev ariza sucked jsmith terry brewer tjones kj all sucked Dwight's a p***y dmos dekkers back injury

    Harden had to carry the offensive burden more than last year and still come up with lebronesque numbers

    He's the messiah FAs are gonna come to Houston wanting to play with him

    Not with the other players or for mda or morey or les

    I always giggle at that Hardens holds the ball to much. That's been proven time and time again that he holds it no longer than guys like LBJ or Curry. But media hate doesn't need facts.

    So enlighten us who in last years roster needed to facilitate our offense or get more shots?

    Re-reading this thread reminded me of why aelliott has always been one of the best Rockets-related posters on the board. Can't believe there were posters questioning the veracity of his information. They never learn.

    Where were all of you when I was saying the same thing? I've been saying for a while now that Harden was the problem. Not his fault though.

    Harden has the ball much longer than both of them easily.

    How could you leave out the hands stretched out defense from rim to rim.

    "Hug You" by Hut, this song was clearly inspired by James Harden the biggest huthugger in history.

    he most certainly wont look after the brick bros, or the half assed "elite" center, or the oft-injured dirk wannabe, or the 4 bench players who should be in the rotation but rot on the bench cuz of the dumb ass rockets org.

    i dont blame harden for using his brain. nothin wrong with that. lets see if he does the same thing when he actually has a team around him. you know people he can pass the ball to so they can make the wide open shot he just gave them. or maybe someone who can take over the offense so james can take a breather after doing every single fkn thing for his team like telling them where to go, what to do, when to stick their thumb up their ass, and so on.

    Shaq looked out for Shaq.

    LeBron looks out for LeBron.

    The list goes on and on and on...

    Allen Leavell did show his happy-jack behind on TV when he walked naked while live news crews were there doing an interview in the locker room. (Yep, they did that in those days.) I wish I could find that footage. :)
