    Can't wait to read your report from tomorrow's practices since Yao will be in the fold.

    The Big Fella never rests !! He had arrived Austin and immediately down to work, even though he had barely recovered from his flu and the jetlag !! :eek:

    Rick Adelman sounded just as enthusiastic about Mike Harris as Elston Turner was (I think from one of Hilltopper's vids during SL).

    I really hope they can keep him.

    They're probably special sandals made specially for those two-toed ninja turtles, of which Bonzi is one.

    Hilltopper, did your guys catch Bonzi's actions yesterday? Couldn't find any from the video clip (Local News of Camp Day 2) in Clutch's media player. It should be very funny.

    It shouldn't come as any surprise that the Rockets org knows all about this place.

    Im doubtful the players read, but there are probably a number of the employees that lurk here.

    If yall will remember, the old VP of Marketing(Tim McDonough(sp?)) actually used to post from time to time before he went to NOLA.

    Great work on your coverage this year Clutch. Ive enjoyed it immensely.

    Who woulda thunk back in 97 that one day you would be a officially recognized media member at camps?

    /me is green with envy ;)

    Steve is definitely going to the bench to backup the 1/2 spots. Although that is probably the most talented lineup we can have, its just not a good fit. With james and francis on the floor on the starting unit, we would only have one reliable 3 point shooter to space the floor. Steve would be best used coming off the bench with the 2nd unit where he would have free reign to do what he does best, dominate the ball and try to score and create shots for others. If hes on the starting lineup hes going to have to play off the ball, which he has never done well.

    T-mac looks like he has lost a few pounds. he's face looks more defined. looks more like the Orlando mcgrady in terms of definition.

    Btw, have a look at that las picture. tracy looks taller then jackie butler,novak and looks just a little shorter then a 7 foot jack sikma. eventhough tracy is crouching. i've allways suspected he's been around 6'9 maybe 6'10. i remember duncan, KG and sheed wallace commenting how decivingly tall tracy is.

    Great recap from this week's training camp, big ups on a job well done. Lots of info to go with the audio/video. Try to get Yao on Friday to close it out

    the more important question is how jealous will TMAC be when YAO gives SF3 a little sugar on the cheek :rolleyes:

    He already said Butler looks like 6 fouls. I tend to think that is the way it is going to go for the season for him. He's too slow for this style of play, just a big lug out there. I hope we trade him.

    Haven't heard anything about Snyder though.

    Can you imagine Van Gundy with Bonzi standing around in his sandals?

    My god man, Van Gundy would have already booted him clear back to Sacramento. With Rick, he don't even care. He knows Bonzi will be ready to go when it's time to go.
