    Obviously, they have to wait for for Aug. 14 and all, but if the Rox do not immediately thereafter begin a badazz BIG 3 campaign, It will be dissappointing.

    The rockets big 3 wont be nearly as marketable. Artest's name is kinda ruined after the brawl, but who cares. As long as we win a championship too.

    The real question is what will ESPN name our big 3? The Celts got the Boston 3party.

    I want to see an Artest, Hayes, Dorsey billboard with the title "Beef: It's what's for dinner."

    fixed :rolleyes:


    Yes, Artest got in the brawl and all, but you know what--I would rather have that then charges of rape, or drug and alcohol issues ala eddie G.

    Screw that fight, tmac, shaq, and many others have fought on the court--artest just took it to the stands.....what, we only forgive as long as the fight involves opposing players :rolleyes:


    Make it marketable---Photo chops mount up...post those big 3 chops. :p

    I think our big 3 named Big 3 long, it's really cool. In china,it is said that long is the stongest symbol of deity,it means win. and i think we nearlly touch it. :D

    It would have to be something that is related to Houston. I can't really think of anything at the moment other than something generic like "The Big 3" or something.

    Or... I know they wouldn't do this but Tall, Black and Angry would be a funny nickname.

    Rockets don't have a big 3. Instead they have 3 sets of tag teams in 111, Scolandry, and now Artest+Battier (Road Wariers).

    I don't mean to add on, but I have to agree with the posts above! That signature hurts my eyes man so lets tone it down a little bit please.


    But that would be a great match-up for the Finals! Yao v. Garnett, Pierce v. Artest, and T-Mac v. Allen. Imagine having Shane Battier running out to help against Pierce and Allen since Battier's strongest suit is help defense! :eek:

    At the risk of bringing down an endless rain of "Houston, you have a problem" quotes, I personally loved the nickname of Apollo 3 for when we had Barkley, Drexler and Olajuwon when I was a kid; only later did I realize that the particular mission only lasted for a little under 5 minutes in total, and was detonated prior to reaching space; eerily appropriate for that trio.

    Personally, I like Clutch City III: Return of the Ring.

    Admittedly, I am rather crappy at these.

    What the hell is wrong with some people. The guy puts an extra "s" on disappointing, and you give him the roll eyes.

    Kind of like those guys that register and then just lurk here for months and then their first post is something insulting...

    What a great start.

    Hopefully the 2 week layover gives marketing guys enough time to throw out some cool stuff by the time we officially announce the trade.
