    According to Clyde, Asik is the Minister of Defense. ;)

    Of Morey's shockingly out of nowhere moves that pay off, of which you have the acquisitions of Scola, Landry, Budinger, etc. a this one may only be eclipse by the getting Parsons in the second round.

    Asik is the foundation of the Rockets' defense. That's why i wish Howard or Bynum play the PF position...cuz i don't want to replace Asik in the lineup....he's very important. I am also not so high on Josh Smith. His shots are inconsistent and his FT aint' that good.

    Definitely the 2nd most valuable player on the team.

    This guy is good! he's tall, big body, eats up space inside, amazing rebounder and good 1on1 post defense. Gotta love this guy, Omer Asik you got my vote for most improved

    Total stud. I would not be unhappy if we kept him and got Gasol.

    For CONTINUITY of the game purposes, they should do something about the Hack-A-Player approach.

    But thanks for the free points OKC :grin: And for Asik for knocking them down burning that approach

    so in this situation, would you want Dwight Howard or Omer Asik playing for you?

    Besides, from the Hack a Shaq original to Hack Asik, Hack Howard doesn't sound nearly as nice.

    Whole team got us the lead but Asik is the reason we pulled out the win. Such a clutch forth.

    And people want Howard over this guy why? Asik has ten times more heart, none of the drama, and his contract is beyond fair.
