    As an old timer I'd say the coin flips of the 80s.

    Given the choices in this poll i'd thank steve for Yao... and McGrady.

    Thanks SF3.

    T-Mac easily. While getting the #1 pick was exciting I too had no real idea how Yao would turn out. I had high hopes for him but wasnt expecting too much I figured he'd be a 15ppg,10rpg player but someone the defense would need to concentrate on because of his height but still a lot of ?s surrounding that draft and Yao.

    At least with T-mac we were getting agruably a top 5 player along with Howard,gaines and Lue for an all-star, a serviceable C and a good sg.

    T-mac all the way

    oh yeah now lets see how that trade(s) worked out

    we got:

    T-mac,Barry,Howard,James,Hamilton for Francis,Cato,Mobley and two future second rounders.

    CD you da man!

    Actually..

    Houston Receives:
    T-mac
    Jon Barry
    Juwon Howard
    Mike James

    Orlando Receives:
    Steve Francis
    Doug Christie
    Kelvin Cato



    TRADE ACCEPTED

    Due to Orlando having a stupid GM and no clue how to run a nba team, the Rockets can laugh and point at Orlando for the next 7-10 years.
