    Fact. With the added rest and with Swift in the paint too to block shots, we will see opponents shooting more jumpers, which would of course mean more missed shots.

    Juwan Howard will be more productive off the bench.

    Fiction, unless Sura or James goes down, Head will be getting garbage minutes.

    Fiction, I'd put like five guys ahead of him as far as MVP goes. We'll see how the season pans out first. By the way, answer the post above you, thats how the thread works.

    Fact or Fiction: Yao will drastically improve from last year due to the summer of rest.

    Fiction, Yao doesn't have much potential in him as for he never improved from season to season.

    F or F, Yao Ming will be the better player in his rival against Miami Heat's Shaquille O'Neal.

    check the numbers homeboy, Yao HAS improved every season...from 13 to 15 to 18 points per game...as well as a jump in FG% too...

    Unable to predict. Shaq's sliding down from the peak while Yao's forging ahead for it. They're no compare cause they do not belong to the same era.

    Well wouldn't it be ironic that such a comment comes from a fan of the team which has been undergoing a hard time becuz of the lack of a good center!

    F/F: Swift will struggle to find minutes because of his poor work ethic.

    Fiction: The Rockets got him to replace him with Howard I believe.

    F/F: The Rockets will trade for Draft Picks during the deadline?

    He knows he is on a team that can contend. He will give it his all every night.

    F/F: If Mcgrady gets injured and is out for 10 games, will we be able to win at least 6 of them with out him?

    Fiction, if any trade during the deadline occurs, it will be an instant impact player. We aren't built to win a championship now, so we most likely won't be trying to get a surplus of rookies.

    Bull, he was on a team that could contend with Memphis. They had an incredibly deep team with some great players like Wells, Miller, and Gasol. If he only exerted himself more, they definitely could have gone far.

    Fact, bringing in Andersen allows us to sub in for him when he's out with injury. We have a really deep guard rotation with Wesley, Head, and Barry so I'm sure ten days without him would be fine.

    Fact or Fiction: Head will exceed expectations and show some potential to become a good player.

    Fact. Besides Sura, there isn't a player on the Rockets who might even get three technicals this season. Everyone is very composed.

    F/F: Charlie Ward will become a contributing member of the rotation.

    Fiction. Although he adds a bit of depth, he isn't exactly a contributing player- just a reserve. And if we have to start relying on him if Howards injured, we're screwed. I'd say with the addition of Baxter, we'll be even with San Antonio.
