    Yao has great hands for a 7-5 guy but, seriously. He fumbles alot of passes and is one of if not the most turnover prone big men in the league.

    No Artest please. He's a chemistry killer. Not worth the talent.

    Either Miller or Calderon is fine. But I think the latter is not going anywhere. So yeah, I want a Miller.

    Yao turns the ball over quite a bit. He is definitely a great player but for anyone who watches alot of his games it should be very evident. He was 7th in the league in turnovers per game these past two seasons. Usually, primary ball handlers are the ones who get that high of a turnover rate. Eddy Curry and Dwight are pretty bad too but that is nothing to be proud of, their known for mishandling their fair share of passes.

    Like some other posters said here, Mickael Pietrus would be a nice fit for us. He can actually hit some threes from what I remember (I had him on my fantasy team). Plus he can defend, rebound, block shots, and he is athletic as hell. He's also pretty good at penetrating. I wouldn't mind having him.

    Imagine a bench with Steve Francis (providing he recovers), Pietrus, and Landry. :eek: talk about athleticism off the bench!

    If those are the only choices, I rather pick Calderon over Artest. Calderon is, on my opinion, more consistant and a better passer/shooter.This kid just got potential. I would trade Skip and a future round pick for him.

    We aren't getting Jose Calderon... This board is so delusional at times.

    That's why This Ron commodity is cheaper and riskier that rockets could afford and should pursue.

    I need to watch Jose Calderon some more.

    What other PG can we get though, realistically, that will help us more than Rafer does?

    Andre Miller?
    Ramon Sessions?

    A revitalized and tanner John Stockton? :eek:

    There aren't that many options...

    Or we get Artest, and the fighting never stops. :D


    If we get Calderon, I think that is enough. We don't need Mike Miller.

    BUT if we get Mike Miller, we still need a capable 1 spot starter.

    Oondurstaind mah logic?
