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... ------------------ "Awesome baby!" Dick Vitale
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. ------------------ "The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till the other is ready." -HDT

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 ) ------------------
look your man just got traded cause he's EXPENDABLE(sorry spelling)..... The rockets keep francis knowing that he's sure talent to bring a ring rather than your brand... Brand is gone.... Franchise kicked his A$$ and the bulls are regrettin they didn't draft him.... that's life.... ------------------ "Wahooo"-homer Beers all around.......

I AM SICK OF THIS TROLL GETTINGBRANDED... IF ELTON BRAND IS SO GOOD, THEN THE BULLS WOULD NOT HAVE TRADED HIM.. PERIOD! ANY POSSIBLE WAY WE CAN BAN THIS r****d?!! ------------------ BILL KENNEDY SUCKS!
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. ------------------ Clutchcity.net... source for all your Rockets, Astros, political, music, humor, and Gordita news.
Instead of comparing stats, who would you want to build around. To me its easy. ------------------ T-Pooh and Quitten went up the hill, to make a bet on a Foreward. When it all came down, they were nowhere to be found. Now they should be drawn and quartered.
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? ------------------ Draftsource.net-- the premier source for draft info. Profiles, rankings, mock drafts, and more! The Mo Taylor Fan Site
