Harris is taller than Hayes and whoever said he is 1/2 inch shorter than Justin Williams must've been looking at a TV shot from the rafters or something. Williams is a legit 6'9", a good 2 1/2 to 3 inches above Harris.
I thought during the play-off, you can only have a 12-man roster, and you can change it even with injuries. So if Yao is healthy enough to play the final if we go that far, he can't play if we don't put him in the playoff roster. If Deke got injured during play-off, there will be no center in our team if we don't have a back-up center. Correct me if I am wrong, and I sincerely hope I am wrong.
That's sweet. I still have the 95 playoff in mind when we lost 2 key players (Herrera and Mad Max) and could only play basically six people for the entire play-off. Well, we were the champions. I see a lot similarity in this year's rockets.
scolar chuck and landry is enough along with mutombo. Just keep the taller one of the two to back up mutombo in playoffs
Wow, is Justin Williams shorter than Landry? Or could he have grown? Mike Harris looked HUGE in person. DD
Unless Landry, Scola, and Hayes are able to outrebound 7+ foot centers, we're keeping Williams. I seem to remember Dampier playing keep away by himself with Hayes and Landry beneath him.
Why do we need Landry when the team is winning without him? This is for the mental people who think Yao is slowing down the team. THis team right now could probably win without T-Mac.
Damn, we need another big man badly. I hope Williams gets better, cause we're going to need a big body eventually. Deke can only play so many minutes.
I seriously hope you don't mean this. They'd probably beat the bottom dwellers, but the playoff teams? Forget it.
Its a complicated system. Took T-Mac, Rafer and everyone else the first half to figure it out. That said I'm fine with keeping Harris. Height isn't everything. You can be 6'9" but because of arms be more like a 7 footer (Ben Wallace) or be 6'9" and because of leaping ability be able to get higher than most bigs (Landry). From what I saw today I really like Harris' aggressiveness and willingness to attack. His shooting percentage wasn't good but he was fouled while shooting on a lot of them.
Steve Novak??? Don't know, it will be Mike Harris or Steve Novak, whatever they'll both gain playing time.
