    I'm pretty sure it was Avery Johnson when he was with the Spurs, it was on camera I think. A buddy in our rocket crew saw it and we made fun of AJ from then on out.

    Sorry if this was posted already, but didn't see it anywhere. Patterson says the surgery has got him feeling better than ever and jumping higher than ever.

    Great news! Time to start him and trade Scola, as much as I love him, we are not going anywhere this season so use him in a trade.

    That's awesome. I remember Battier showing some hops and getting his first dunk in eight years after gaining relief from a minor surgery. :grin:

    Good, we need him to raise his trade value.

    Unless he's part of a package for a superstar, I want this guy as the Rockets' starting PF in the near (if not immediate) future.

    Patterson has had surgery on both ankles now. I'd rather trade him and look to Morris.

    He played with OJ Mayo in HS so you can honestly find a ton of clips..

    This guy is key to our future. I really hope he takes that next step here. I feel he is borderline allstar in the making. If not an important piece to a winning team.

    Almost all of Yao's surgeries were to repair foot injuries. Also, how can you compare someone who is 7'6" and 300+ lbs to someone who is 6'9" and 235 lbs? Completely different situations.

    You would be an idiot to trade Patrick Patterson based on a couple ankle surgeries, one that he succesfully played through. I'll leave it at that...

    Even if he's in a package for Dwight Howard?
