    It's official. JVG to the rockets. Much better hiring than the hornets did. Hopefully he makes Yao ming good.

    yea, but what about those other western conference teams they gotta beat? spurs, suns, mavs, kings, lakers, twolves, possibly warriors, blazers (if they can get their act together).

    I dont know why Atlanta would do it that trafe. Shareef is way better than Griffin is right now. If im thinking short term I want Shareef if its long term I would lean towards Griffin because he is so young and he has so much potential and athletic ability. Since the Rockets are building for a couple of years I dont know if the Rockets would make that trade.

    Blazers are too talented not to be a top 6 seed....they get 50 win seasons every year....i don't see it being any different next season either.Even with suspensions,attuide problems and drug problems..they still win alot of games

    With JVG on the Rockets, I'll think they'll go far with Mobley, Franchise, and Yao. A good trio fo sho.

    Also, what the hell happened to Eddie Griffin, I thought he would do good for sure.
