    Brand has Mercer, who is about even with Mobley...

    I don't think the Rockets are extremely talented...

    However, put Stevie on the Bulls, and the Bulls win at least 25 games...

    Put Brand on the Rockets, and we win maybe 50...

    Stevie would make more of a positive impact than Brand...

    I think we would be better off with Brand than Stevie simply because he is a big man...

    That doesn't mean Stevie is less valuable because he would make the Bulls much better too...

    Let's put it this way. Brand is your classic PF- 20-10 baller. Francis is a Clyde Drexler clone with serious hang-time, without the height.

    Both are superstars in the making. Team wise, Chise is light years ahead of Brand's.

    Sure, Brand is so darn valuable his team traded him for a high schooler.

    The big men in the West are going to make Brand eat some leather this year. I expect his points and rebounds to be down 20 - 30%. There is no doubt that Brand is a very good player, but he is not in Steve Francis' league (metaphorically, not literally [​IMG] )

    gettinbranded is a pretty good other-team board member. Yeah, he likes Bulls players more than Rockets players... but that's called "team loyalty" not trolling.

    Of course, he's crazy on this one. After season 1, it was very close. Neither team had many wins and Brand put up better numbers. This year, the Bulls sucked despite some additions and Francis became a really dynamic player. Francis is a significantly more valuable player.

    Instead of comparing stats, who would you want to build around. To me its easy.

    Here's the line that annoys me the most:

    Brand has been the model-citizen poster boy, Stevie ............. you know, huge edge Brand.

    Actually, I don't know. Steve has been one of the classiest guys on our team on and off the court. How has he not been a model citizen since joining the Rockets?
