This is just terrific knowledge. Do you seriously just look at big names? because if anything Battier is one of the most important pieces to this team. If we get someone in return for Battier it better be someone that can play defense, because if McGrady is forced to guard the best SG/SF, your going to be begging for Battier to return, I guarantee you that.


Thank You

Or maybe he knows something?
We get these things EVERY YEAR while I want to believe it I have to see us get out of the first round before I see these types of threads, unless we get a Gasol type trade.

This may seem crazy, but maybe we should, I don't know, get out of the first round before declaring ourselves champions.

What the hell are YOU smoking??? I say we declare ourselves champions not only for next year, but the last two years. I'm already looking forward to four-peating in the '09-10 season.

Who's with me?

Normally, if this were still the David Carr era, I'd agree. However I think the Texans have the most potential of any of the Houston teams(yes, I said it) at the moment. The only problem is they play in the toughest division in football.

Still, the idea that any of those 3 teams will win a championship anytime soon is laughable at best. Sadly.

GO DYNAMO?!
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Mcgrady2Head's comments make it evident that he learned the game of basketball by playing NBA Live.

What makes that REALLY sad is that everyone knows that 2K is the better game.

Poor guy.

EDIT: yes, another if scenario... will these two ever stay healthy? Can they play at least 80% of the regular season games, and NOT MISS THE PLAYOFFS?
