    Yeah they gave Cassell's number, but Cassell left the Rockets along time ago and he destroys us everytime we play him. Sam is always motivated against the Rockets. I felt for Steve.

    Also they didn't give his number to an Ex-Knick... .CHARLIE WARD, a friend of the jewish community;)

    Willis is a disappointed about the jersey numbers.
    Also Willis finds it difficult to hoop in baseball gear.
    :cool:

    Ouch!!!! I love Steve to death but am not bothered by his # being taken. Elie on the other hand hurts me deeply.

    I think everyone has forgotten how McGrady took Rhodes number.

    I heard that in the new version of The Wizard of Oz, they're going to replace the Tin Man with Buzz Lightyear. Sacrilege!

    How could they do that. It's not the superstars that matter. It's the role players that provide the memories. And the draft busts. By giving McGrady that #, they're destroying our team's history.

    I'm not sure I'll ever be able to chear for McGrady quite as hard as I could if he hadn't taken Roderick's # :(.

    I agree. They should have waited at least a season before giving out #3 again out of respect for the effort Steve gave the Rockets. You can question his results & methods, but you can't question his effort.

    Will you be saying that when Steve comes to town in January, wearing his ORLANDO jersey #3, and trying to out it on the Rockets with everything he has

    the guy is not dead or retired - we do not need to pay tribute - he is still playing in the league and wearing #3, he doesn't care - why do you and tinman ?

    We should pay tribute to Steve and Cuttino.

    I dont understand your hate Willis. We, as Rockets fans, knew Steve and Cuttino since they were rookies.

    We say them grow up, we adopted them.

    WE ARE MR DRUMMUND!

    Who pays tribute to players that are still playing in their prime for other teams ?!?

    Well, while you are paying tribute to Steve - he will be wearing HIS #3 jersey and trying pay tribute to the Toyota Center goals by dunking on your boy Charlie Ward

    Tinman, you get on my nerves, but props on the creativity with Different Strokes. Now, your next assignment is to integrate Juwan Howard with "Eye of the Tiger."

    "Eye of the Tiger" was the theme song in the Rocky movies.
    I guess when Apollo got knocked out by Drago, that will be the outcome of Andre Kirolenko vs Juwan Howard next year.

    I'll post something musical soon :cool:
