    Yeah maybe need to checkout the MPG. Of course Von doesn't have the same pedigree as Kobe, but I like his intensity and the energy he brings. The dude just gives his all out there and sometimes yeah he freaks out (adelman-lakers incident), however who doesn't? If Adelman was that good at controlling temper players I don't see why Von would be such and issue. Furthermore I do believe he is a good teammate, he's buddies with Landry and Brooks(just to show he is fitting in).

    Thanks for the videos Bob Monkeyson. Great job. These two videos just show us that Landry and Wafer are two key guys who can bring energy and excitement to the team. Nobody else was able to do that for us last year. We need to sign Wafer back because of how much athleticism he has, and the energy he brings. As seen a few times in the video, he is not afraid to attack the rim and go up strong. We need what he brings to this team. Also, I thought Landry played very well for us last year, especially in the playoffs. It's sad though because the gunshot wound that he took to the leg slowed him down, and took some of his explosivness away. Either way, he is going to be a very important player for us this year. We need the same production out of him that we saw in the playoffs this year.

    Von is a great athlete for sure. I just wish he would calm down and realize that if he plays better teamball and keep his attitude in check, he would welcomed back to any team. He just wants everything now, he thinks he is worth way more than he is. Just chill and work hard and it will pay off in the end. I just hate the way that when he gets the ball, you know what hes going to do with it, so easy to read. Until he learns how to play like a team, I dont want him back.

    yeah I was so confused on what songs to use so I just went with whatever sounded decent. Actually I did start out using the commentary but it got kinda annoying and out of place on the vids so I put music in instead.

    Tim Duncan.....in my opinion one of the greatest power forwards to ever suit up.....if not the greatest.

    Thanks for the cool videos, the music I can take,the players are awesome. I love Carl Landry, he reminds me of Deke, the smile, the attitude, and now the finger wag. They have a simular style on the court as well.Von is an awesome player,yes, he may have a temper he needs to work on, but who doesnt have you all read some of the posts on here, and facebook. I think he just needs to grow up a little, I know I feel that way sometimes too.The facts are they are both awesome players, bring alot to this team, and I appriciate Bob's videos. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

    My girl works at Sharpstown and ran into Carl Landry yesterday. He asked for her number and said she got junk in her trunk....she shot him down ( as far as i know lol) and got his email for tickets.

    Agreed.
