    My uncle manages the restaraunt "Pappa Deauxs" which is a pretty big seafood place. He called me last night and we were talking and he said that in the last 2 weeks he has seen Croshere in there twice. And one time he thinks that he may have been with some of the Rockets management. Whether or not this means anything I dont know, maybe he has a home around Houston but I thought I would let ya guys know.

    Good player and would help us, but he would be a bench guy for 6-7 million a year. After the drafting of Griffin and Morris, our weakness at the 3 has now become our strength...at least on paper; hopefully our guys will live up to it.

    Croshere could help us at the 4 spot, where he might be an upgrade over Taylor. I wouldn't mind seeing Croshere with Griffin. Would give us solid size at the forward spot with shooting skill.

    Croshere doesn't have a house in the Houston area. So, hopefully the Pacers don't hear anything about this unless a trade is going down after July 18.

    I like Mama's, on Westhiemer near Chimney Rock. Its a hot spot late night, till 4 am, and great for breakfast and a beer at 7am.

    Oh yea, we don't need Croshure.

    I would only go for Croshere if he is directly traded for Cato.

    I'm a big Croshere fan, but I'm scared of getting him on this team. His contract is that big that it is not worth taking him on to play the 4 after his struggles last season.

    I hope he plays well again, but in Indy.

    I would much rather eat at Mama's than see Croshere in a Rocket's uniform. He is worth maybe 2 million a year, while a Mama's meatloaf sandwich, at 2 in the morning is.....

    priceless!

    Keep in mind one thing. If we get Croshere, we would need to do it through a trade. It may include walt williams and kenny thomas. Our forwards would be:

    Croshere
    Mo Taylor
    Eddie Griffin
    T. Morris
    Matt Bullard
    Dan Langhi

    6 Forwards is a good number. I would do it.

    Croshere could help the Rockets, but not at 7 million a year!

    We could sign Marc Jackson for 5 million, and he would play a much bigger role than Austin (the one hit wonder from playoffs past).
