    We're low on fat asses. We need some more fat asses to hold off Zo and PJ Brown. Skinny asses won't do.

    Yeah we need big bodys, But big bodys that can score at least like 10 points, run the break, DRIBBBLE THE ****ING BALL CORRECTLY WITHOUT TRAVELING AND GETTING IT STOLEN.

    I thought something good was going to happen, Maybe i might be wrong and maybe Pig is better now or something. But i doubt it, he showed he had no skills last year.

    I find watching the rise and fall of players' reputations on this board very interesting and at least a little entertaining. Mobley's reputation is, of course, the most fun to watch, but the best dynamic comes from bench players. We saw it with Maloney, Drew, Hamilton, Thomas, that other fat guy we had last year whose name escapes me, and Pig Miller.

    When we signed him last year, certain posters jumped to conclusions about his ability from his nickname, his picture, and the fact no one ever heard of him. They said he sucked and that he was slow and would eat the Rockets out of house and home, even though he was a twelfth man. He acquited himself during the season by hustling hard and rebounding better than anyone expected. Not that he proved himself a rotation-player, but worthy of a slot at the end of the bench.

    He wasn't needed after all the wheeling and dealing of the summer until now. And in the latest case of what-have-you-done-for-me-lately, his reputation has sunk to its initial low -- much like Drew's reputation sank in the first couple games of the season. If Pig plays poorly, the above-posted will be saying 'I told you so' and if he hussles and plays well, they will be strangely quiet (... or will be lauding the achievements of Pig, never remembering how they had ranked on him, praised him, and ranked on him again over the previous year).

    I think it's a good move on Rudy's part, or at least as good as can be expected right now. Miller is no superstar, but I thought he was solid when he played. Kenny Thomas and Thomas Hamilton haven't proven themselves to be any better and the Rockets desperately need the help in the frontcourt. Is Cato sitting out again tonight?

    I think whenever cato is doing good the whole team is doing good. I really like his game.


    But i guess we are going with the Thinny Slimmmy Frontcourt.

    UNLESS WE PUT

    HAMILTON AND PIG UP FRONT>. Ohh man will they eat out mourning and brown.
