    How can no one mentioned Tim yet?


    Also, I would throw LiTtLey1521 on the list too. That guy/girls posts always brings a smile to my face. He/she has an opinion about everything.

    First, 99% of what I post is BBall related so my comments are only relevant in that context.

    Secondly, it is not possible for me to isolate the posters whom I admire down to a single small grouping for fear of missing someone. As a subject material, the NBA in general and the Rockets in particular are multi-faceted...history, coaching, management, current and formers players, insider info & sightings, the Collective Bargaining Agreement, Asian & Euro BBall events, X's & O's, trade speculations, Yao interviews in the Chinese media, reports from the Shaw Summer League and Rocky Mt. Reviews, pictures, marketing insights, and much, much more....

    There is a saying that "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery". Let me paraphrase that just a little..."Mutual intelligent exchanges are the sincerest form of respect". If I have failed to single you out here, but have respectfully exchanged BBall viewpoints, then be assured you have my respect...even if we disagree. :) (The major exception being admonishing those creating Garnett trade scenarios) ;)

    Lastly, I agree with 90% of the list of so called "Respected" posters and consider it the highest honor to even be postively mentioned in the same thread or post. This is especially true for aelliott and NIKEstrad who were very insiteful and patient as I fumbled my way through learning the mechanics of NBA salaries.

    Closing comment - Someday I hope to say as much with so few words as Will and to have the detached cool of Clutch and Jeff.

    A huge "Thanks" to those who singled me out in their posts.

    Go Rox.

    Good sweet mother of crap, how did Yetti get so much praise? There's about 2 things he thinks he knows about the Rockets: Francis sucks and Yao is God.

    My votes would got to heypartner, A-Train (one of those guys you love to hate), and... I'm not sure who else.

    As one who has had a couple of back and forths with Yetti, he is very passionate about his position (even though it is wrong ;) ). So I give him props for that.

    I vote for DaDakota, Hey P, and Jeff.

    Well being passionate about your position should never earn you respect on its own. Haven't you heard that phrase: "Never argue with an idiot - you can never win"? That would basically be saying every idiot has the potential to be a venerable poster on this BBS... :cool:

    Certainly got me where I am today.

    *************************************************
    MacBeth approaches the podium, pushes aside the two guards who, it would seem, have not gotten the programme lisitng, and don't realize that this is the moment where MacBeth gives a gracious acceptance speech.

    *clears throat* Brings head up and gives somewhat startled crowd a steely gaze of sheer benevolence..."I'd just like to take a moment to thank the Academy, and..*whisper* ...SYS...shhhh! Can't you see I'm making my acceptance speach!?!? Keep it down, and we can deal with whatever little problem you've got later." Gives the crowd a wan smile as if to say " Oh, the people I have to deal with, you'd never imagine."..and then gathers his notes, clears his throat with a jarring "Parumph", and continiues..." AS I WAS saying , I'd most like to thank all those who, in their wisdom, got beyond our petty political bickering and recognized me for my greatness in spite of our standing on opposite sides of issues,..You the wrong, myself the right, but let's not quibble at an historic moment like this.

    Let's get down to what this really means...Choosing me as your Most Respected Poster is not only good for the BBS...not only good for basketball, and not only good for America...it is great for the world! * Aisde, responding to repeated tugs from SYS which were, it must be admitted getting more and more forcefull. " What is it you pinnickity woman!?!? Can't it wait!?!? What?!?!? You must be drunk...let me see that! Wind and Who...Wind and Sea..this must be for a Best Runner up or somthing...oh, clearly you've made an error. Now, I must proceed with my sppech...who are these men? Security? Good idea, SYS, in wake of the kind of ballot rigging you've just shown me evidence of! These strapping young lads will hold the wolves at bay..Wait till I get to the part where they ought to vote me dictatorial powers for life...They'll LOVE it!....WHAT?!?! What do you mean, escort me elsewhere!?!? Has there been some sort of plot against the governm...er..premature..against my victory speech!?!? Hey there! Let go! My people will tear this place apart if I am not alowed to address my adoring masses..See, they're already rioting out there, can you not hear it, plebian dolt!?Wait......what is that, laughter? See..they're laughing at you, fools, for thinking that a mere couple of heavies will prevent the Pax MacBethanica..."*

    RocketGuy3:- First thing you need to wash your mouth out as your vocabulary is ofensive!
    Secondly for such a young member you need to go back and reread some of my posts as your opinion of someone you just dont know or have any idea about, is very limited!
    I have been a dedicated Rockets fan for nearly 22years in Houston. I have watched the majority of their Games during this period and have recorded and made analysis of most of them! Any opinion I have expressed has been sincere and has never required street language or the abusive use of Holy Names.
    Any opinion or suggestions which I have posted have only been made with the hope that the Rockets will improve and play an exciting Game. I dont hate any of the players, but I do prefer the Big Mans Game over Small Ball and hope, like all sincere Rox Fans that the Rox will get on track next season.

    DavidS,
    No, I'm just an ordinary new member here on the BBS. Nice try, I take that as a compliment.

    Ok, after almost 4 days, I know a number of our members are anxious to know the latest rankings,so ... here you go (you can find the table at the end of the thred)!

    Just keep in mind, we will determine the winner and the final result in 3 days time, so for some of you that are desperate to move up the rankings (as I have noticed) you would have to do the best you can to either attract new voters or convince someone to change their vote. Again, anybody may change their vote anytime before the final count.

    By the way, as a relatively new member here on the BBS, I must say that I'm not very familiar with a number of nominees (some of them I've never heard of), thus have no clue about their legibility (or "Seniority") for the poll. Do correct me if I misspelled someone's name or let me know any of the nominees that are non-exist or don't quality for the event.

    Again, I apologize for the gap between the text and the table, as I have tried to fix up and had no clue why they are exist.
