I think this would be an excellent deal because a line-up of Francis, Mobley, Bonzi, Eddie and Sheed would mean 5 guys that are VERY VERY talented and these guys are all around the same age excluding wallace being a couple years older anyways the point is these guys all probably enjoy the same things and can bond together. However, living in Portland this deal is a bit hard to imagine. Mo Cheeks has done a great job taking Wallace under his wing to control his tempers. And I personally think Wallace is up there with Garnett and Webber. As for Bonzi Wells he's Portlands most reliable scorer. One last thing I can't undestand is why Portland would want another fat-ass when they already have Kemp? Both are Chubby, slow, think they're smooth, can't rebound, although they have nice jumpers. A bit redundant?
With Bonzi Wells and Wallace, we'd be Portland II. Lots of talent and bad attitudes. All that means is 3 more coaches will be fired before everyone realizes talent alone will not win championships.... Remember when we traded for Sleepy Floyd,Joe Barely Cares and Purvis Short? *Poof* we were the Warriors II... ugh.
No....no....no.....no....no.... God what a messed up clubhouse we would have then. In addition, which lucky b*stard are these 4 guys ( Wells, Mobley, Francis, Wallace) gonna get to be their 5th man, and do things like play defense and look pass first? This would remind me of the team we had after making the Sampson to G-State trade...Potentialy great, but only if they change the rules and allow each player to have his own ball.
A friend of mine was cleaning the urinals at greenway plaza and he heard george postolos' cable repairman say we were trading for abdul rashid dostum and wally backman. pass it on.
No thanks, I would prefer to stay a Rockets fan. In order for me to do that, I kind of have to like the team.
IMO... if Sheed comes here, all of you will love him... sort of like Barkley, I hated that guy as a Sun, but as a Rocket, woooo that man was the best..
If we can get 2 good players like sheed and bonzi(who imo has very good trade value) then why can't we just get one superstar big man ala KG, Zo(he's a risk), etc. We can always make it a 3 way deal and trade those 2 plus some more of our players to make it work. Don't like Sheed, he's as much a head case as RocketsO3 is a Chaka!
I wish you could assimilate that dude, Mango. He's really bad news. And shouldn't play for the Rockets!
