    If Les really is serious about contending, he should really consider getting Boozer for Stro + Filler. Sure he is way overpaid, but he can rebound and make open jumpers. Draft the best swingman avaliable, sign V-Span, have Morey trade for an undervalued bench player (like a Raja Bell), get Yao healthy and that's enough to contend. Get T-mac healthy too and that's enough to win the whole damn thing.

    KMart has value but is unsuitable for the Rockets. He is just too street 'macho' with a small 'm' and his emotions are unstable.Wrong personality to couple with Yao & McGrady.

    Why do we want to take on his extra years, extra salary, extra baggage and his extra injury proneness for a statastical wash? Yes, he adds some physical play that we need but no way would I take that risk on HIM.

    Plus we have nothing to offer anyway.

    The two types of players I do NOT want to see the Rockets acquire this off-season-

    1. injury prone players
    2. players that cannot shoot

    Guess which one Kenyon Martin is.

    Good points considering our roster is busting at the seams with guys who fit in both catagories.
