    You've got to find a way to keep both of these guys...

    Is there any way at all?

    Those two dudes really made this game exciting lol!!! Wafer is Tmacish, hes got the same type of swagger as tmac, Strawberry is more in your face. I would take Strawberry if i had to chose

    Can you add a poll? So, we can vote.

    Trade Head, and keep both of them.
    I just wanna see the passion those guys shown tonight rather than see 0.071 FG. I am sick of waiting Head without any improvement for 3 years.

    I'll take Strawberry Wafer over Mike Harris and Luther Head.

    Harris is stuck behind Hayes, Landry, Scola, and maybe even Dorsey.

    Strawberry is the firmware update of Luther Head. Essentially the same, but there is an improvement

    what a battle tonight between the two. glad they were both on our side.

    either one looks to be more useful than luther head. however, cutting luther is a waste. id like the rockets to find a taker for him in exchange for a TE and maybe a future second rounder.

    It's presesaon, let's not all jump on the bandwagon. Remember Greek-Tmac? Remember Kato?

    But still, I called Wafer and Strawberry scrubs and they really made me pay this game ;)

    Before the start of today's game:
    Guess who's leading the team in field goal % and 3 pt% ?
    Luther Head

    Guess who's the third worst on the team in field goal % ? (excluding McGrady)
    Von Wafer

    Appearances deceive. Up until this point Head has been the better shooter.

    Head was the top 3 point shooter in the league.

    with Head, why Wafer?

    But we know what we'll get from Luther...and it's not pretty.

    At least with Wafer, he's shown off his skillset. That may translate well when it counts.

    Either way, I'm glad we're debating over 3rd stringers

    With the 2nd team getting better and better. Maybe better than other clubs 1st team. Rockets 1st team can rest more during regular season till the playoff. :D

    Wafer adds more size and above-the-rim play, and "potentially" better D. I'm certainly on the bandwagon. But unlike Head who's shown some skill, Wafer's NEVER shown anything 3 years in the league. Its a roll of the dice. But Head's expendable anyways..

    That's a tough choice. I like Harris, Wafer and DJ...

    Can't decide.
