    We don't have a strong highly flying dunking post man. I sure miss Carl Landry :rolleyes:

    Maybe with time; Hill hasn't proven himself enough yet to take many of Chuck's minutes. Hill's minutes will depend a lot on match-ups and how quickly he matures. Sounds like he might see some time at center.

    And there's still this Patterson kid, too.

    I am happy with the current team even without Melo. Nice to be able to get him while he is still young, but at what cost? C-Bud, PP, Hill and the draft picks represent the Rockets future. Morey would essentially bet the farm on Melo.

    OTOH, as some have posted, Melo would be a magnet to attract future free agents, and with a healthy Yao, they are most likely to be calling.

    Morey will have some tough choices, but I trust he will do the right thing.

    I agree with the OP. I see a lot of the '05 Spurs in this team. A dominant low post presence, opposite a gritty big who can get you garbage points and hussle rebounds, A legit perimeter defender, a quick point guard that can shoot, an off guard that can shoot and get to the line, spark plug off the bench, big body off the bench with range, and a great situational post defender off the bench.

    I like our chances a little more this year because in years past it has been feast or famine. We have always been 1 injury away from the lottery. But this lineup I can see one player injured and we can still compete for a playoff spot. Even more so than last year because if Yao goes down again we still have players taller than 6'7" we can put on the floor unlike last year.

    This is my first offseason as a member of CF. Is it always this slow?
