Love the Rockets
Posted: Sun Dec 13, 2009 12:42 pm
Been a diehard Sonics fan for over 15 years, haven't really had a team to follow since they moved. That being said, for whatever reason, I really like the Rockets these days. Every year they struggle with injury problems but they find a way to piece together a lineup and do well. Their two superstar players have had serious injury problems, but between drafting smart and making the right moves they've stayed in contention. I really hope that Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady come back healthy soon and you guys will be amongst the elite in the West.
Imagine a lineup of
PG - Brooks/Lowry
SG - McGrady/Budinger
SF - Battier/Ariza
PF - Scola/Landry
C - Yao/Andersen
That is one DEEP team, great balance of offense, defense, slashing, and outside shooting. You got it all. Assuming Yao comes back near 100% and McGrady returns, while he isn't a superstar anymore, if he can stay in shape and play within himself he'd be a very effective addition to the team. I'm looking forward to the Rockets success in the near future.
