Well I basically agree with everyone's point that we need an "enforcer" instead of a "thug." But that's what I intended all along. If I had realized (like I should have) that the word "thug" is associated more with head cases than hard noses than I would have used the term "enforcer." And Space, the Bulls were never a speed team. They were clearly half court, using Jordan's one on one skills to draw the double team which he would either beat or pass out of. the backcourt players on that team (CArtwright, H Grant, Rodman, Long - well there's always an exception) were excellent defenders. Also, Jordan and Pippen pretty much stopped any perimeter players from driving in the first place. The Rockets could try to emulate the Bulls but I just don't see Francis, Anderson, and Mobley creating a defensive wall the way Jordan and Pippen did (not for awhile at least). Until their defensive skills are consistent, I still think that an "enforcer" in the middle would do wonders for this team's winnning percentage. It's okay to have one or two big man who play well from the outside but a team full of Sam Perkins will never win a championship. ------------------
Bryce Drew was a bad boy in Valpo, is that a good thug? ------------------ "You look a team that's been to the mountaintop like the Houston Rockets, I'm going to put pressure on myself to be the best possible player that I can be. With the pieces they already have in place and myself, we can do some amazing things next season." Maurice Taylor
speaking of bryce drew, matt maloney could play a little 4.. and i mean..he sounds thuggish too.. have you heard his philly accent? ------------------ Oh.. so this is how you add a signature huh? coo coo.
Pollard ain't no thug. He's a pretty-boy. Just look at his sideburns. ------------------ My dream job is to be a Houston Rockets towel-boy.
Maybe Sacramento's Pollard, he put up respectable numbers in 17 min/game and could play 4/5.

I can't flip because I don't want to be confused with Peter Vecsey. -- Charles Barkley [This message has been edited by Hydra (edited September 26, 2000).]
