    Dude with all the bashing the Taurus has taken, I thought I would come out of the closet and finally say it...... I'm proud of you Kelvin!!!!! Man the dude has been playing with some passion and nastiness that we haven't had since Mario exited stage left. I think we, as Rocket fans owe it to him. So heres to Kelvin, the Taurus that could!

    You're damn right! Go Kelvin! (or "Calvin", as Lisa Malosky would say)

    LOL. I'm the biggest Cato fan in the world. But I still think someone's gonna say something stupid later in another thread like, "We need a C, not that useless *insert object* we have starting."



    Great Job Cato, keep it up!


    Question:

    If Cato keeps up his effort. I mean, don't expect him to go for 17 every night. Maybe 12 points, 9 boards, and 2 blocks. Then I don't think we can find a better C right now for a cheaper price. At SF, we have Glen Rice.Although he didn't play well, he was really injured and didn't get a proper chance, and T-Mo and Griffin back him up there. The other 3 spots locked up.


    Is there anything to do in the offseason? What's the first priority.


    I think it would be a good idea to, instead of offering him a playing contract, give Willis a job as assistant manager or something like that, so he can continue to motivate Cato, if it's even needed anymore. Then, we should try to trade our pick, a future pick, and KT and any other bench player (if the other team wants), for the first or second pick to pick up Yao Ming. I'm positive this guy will take around 3 years to develop, and he can't play big minutes unless he's used to the NBA game, and develops his body somewhat. So he becomes our backup C, and in 3 years he will have had enough experience to start. Then we decide what to do with Cato/Ming.



    What do you guys think?
