    No team with Juwan Howard on it is ever going to be successful

    As Tinman has shown he does nothing, but lead teams to the lottery

    Stro has no clue on the bball court, so I doubt he'd be practicing, probably chillin with his homies somewhere, going to strip clubs, partyin. He gets to the NBA on pure athletiscm.

    Swift is off spending the huge amounts of money he earns for underachieving, and my quess, based on his performance, is that he spends a good bit of it on mind altering substances, because his mind is obviously very altered. It certainly doesn't appear to be on basketball.

    well he did take less money to come and play for the rockets...so maybe money isn't the most important thing to him...it might be an opportunity to be on a potential title contending team...i respect anybody who takes less money to play some where else...give the guy a break he didn't steal sunglasses or anything... :cool:

    I think yall should hold off judegement until he plays with a full sqaud. Rafer was doing great with both McGrady and Yao on the floor and the same applied with Stro.

    He's got game..

    Stop it! Stop it! Why do you taunt us? :mad:

    We all still hope he can reach his potential....but its safe to have a plan in place if he doesn't...

    Gotta say, loved the baseline move on Murphy. :cool:

    The answer to that question is really quite simple by the end of the 2007 offseason with few exceptions this will be a completely different team than the one which represented the Rox last season.

    Chillin with your homeboys is still better than jacking shades.

    LOL, doubt that. I'd rather have a player pop a pair of shades than be dating Mary Jane with his last remaining brain cell.

    on that second stromile video the sickest thing i've seen in a while was his reverse put back dunk. I thought that only happen in like Live.


    anyways i havent totally lost faith in stro mainly because of the injuried plagued season. sure injuries can be used an excuse to an extent. but i think with all the shifting lineups and nothing stable it was hard for stro to find a role. i believe it was clutch who may have posted the stats of players when both tracy and yao played and it was amazing to see the difference in swifts production. i think he will pay dividends in year two. Patience is a virtue, imagine if the mavs quit on dirk after having a mediocre rookie season and second year. Stro will be fine he doesnt have to be the man here in houston which was something he would have never lived up to in vancouver/memphis. hopefully next season will be better.

    (if he is the same player at the end of next season then i would seriously consider moving him)

    Yes. I love how we all like to remember the one, possibly two highlight reel dunks a game and forget how piss poor the rest of his game is. I think that's why I thought he would be a good fit for this team and Jerry West didn't.

    Give up on him already :)

    It's much less frustrating.
