    I would...we can transform this 7'6 footer and have twin towers of houston and I believe we can transform this giant to becoming a good complement for Yao and maybe monkeyman Ewing and Van Gundy can make his height an advantage..so can Yao since they're both the same size.. they can do what the coaching scrubs of Dallas can't for like the ten years they had him without proper usage!

    I would trade since Cato can't score and most of his rebounds bounce to him. Bradley is a better defender than him. Dallas would trade since I think they've got too many good players already and they've given up on Bradley. Plus, adding a whiteboy to the rockets team would lighten things up! Please consider guys it's a blessing in disguise if we get him...we can turn this gem into a diamond..but maybe the queer rich owner of dallas wants to keep him :rolleyes: but maybe he dont anymore..they have a look-a-like replacement in lafrentz

    I'll be the first to say...HELL NO!

    Bradley is a better shot blocker than Cato but not a better defender and on top of it Bradley can't stay out of foul trouble.

    Cato can at least put a body on Shaq and make him work a little.

    Your imagination and Les and CD's realities have nothing to do with each other. Luckily.

    Not only no....but hell the f*** no.

    I like what I see in Cato nowadays. Maybe I'm high on a couple of meaningless games against the no-Webber Kings, but still, maybe Cato has shrugged off his former constraints---the Steve/Cat/Rudy show---and will give us some solid play at the 5/4.

    Bradley? The Great White Nope? Forget it. If you had asked before the season, I'd have said yes; not now.

    And I'm afraid of trading with Dallas. The Mavs are gonna be hell.

    First, let's get the facts straight...we are not at the bottom. We had the 9th best record in a conference far superior to the East. Secondly, basicly the same team (exclusive of Yao) finished with the best record ever for a non-playoff team.

    I for one am not confusing Cuban's "throw enough money at it and we will win" attitude for imagination.

    We have enough "stars", we need qualified role players which are complimentary in style. Bradley is more identical to Yao than he is complimentary.

    Bradley is marginally cheaper than Cato, but his contract is 2 years longer. In those 2 additional years, he will make $10m and turn 36 years of age.

    Please don't be further offended, but I'm turning this one down also. Especially after the way Cato has responded to working with Patrick Ewing. Bradley has never shown a desire to improve on any team he's played for.
