    Does anyone think having Simien and Howard on the same team will feel just like the second coming of Taylor and Howard? I think the only real difference between the two is their age. Simien may get a few more rebounds but also seems to get hurt more often. I liked the Rockets selecting Simien at first, but have grown cold to the idea now that I've had some time to think about it. Yes, he is a safe pick, but also a mirror image of our current PF.

    IMO, we should select an athletic PF with good speed and leaping ability that would collect more blocks and dunks or a strong bruiser type PF that would inhale rebounds and clog the lane.


    Of course, this is all assuming we select a PF in the draft.

    With the way his workouts have gone, it's more like, this is all assuming Simien would be available at 24...
