    Let's not forget that Omer quit on the Rox last year for a few months.

    A fair point. I would be pretty disappointed and have trouble hiding it, if our new technician was a self-appointed "Ray Lewis with a voltmeter" and looked completely lost in the lab. :grin:

    On the notion of him complaining about his roster, he was handed pretty much nothing but rooks and young players until DH came along. The media was always asking about expectations and performances, and he always answered with deferring to youth and inexperience leading inconsistency.

    I guess it was kind of a cop-out but it's not like it's not going to be truth in 95% of cases.

    I never understood your hate for Asik. You will be hard pressed to find a rim protector that size with that kind of timing. Dmo has made so many critical errors as a Rocket, yet you give him a free pass and even talk him up when we all know he can't really bang inside nor defend and rebound anywhere near Asik's capabilities.

    Should have kept Asik - gone Twin Towers mode. Got a new starting PG by sign-trade Parsons.
