In a few years they should go through Ming without a doubt . . . but he is (was) a rookie, he has flaws in his game and isnt the franchise player . . . some day he will be a great center but right now he isnt even a top 10 post player, Cuttino might not fit the style of play they will have in a couple of years . . . but you could say the same for Francis
forget ming...he didn't do jack this season when he did get the ball....gimme a break...i could see if ming posted up 24/7 and never got the ball but the houston games I watched...he didn't post up a lot...
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting "pchotsauce":</div><div class="quote_post">allnet...so u r blamin the rockets not makin the playoffs on Mobley? Their franchise player is Steve Francis....what did he do? nothin so mobley took the helm....</div> How many Rockets games did you watch this year? If you watched any you would know that Francis was the best player and did more for the team than Mobley. I cant remeber one time in Mobleys career he has ever "taking the helm" of a team. Mobley definetly needs to watch his shot selction . I think Francis is actually a great fit for Yao. Sometimes you need someone who can light it up with Yao or take the game over if need be. Francis can do that. I would love to see Mobley in another teams jersey next year. I agree with allnet 110% on this issue.

PG (MLE Signing) 5. TMo 6. Hawkins 7. Tito/or 2nd Round Drafted Center

If we are willing to put Mobley on the bench then I think we should trade him and get a decent guard/SF in return. I have my hesitations that Nachbar might not be ready yet to start for the Rockets franchise. However with Norris gone we need to pick up a PG in either the draft, trade, or FA.
Rockets should go after Kenny Anderson to back-up Francis...a good fit there or speedy but i hope he stays with spurs 8)
