Another Reason to Like the Rockets

As if inking Brent Barry, trading for Ron Artest and already having Yao Ming wasn't enough reason to love the Houston Rockets, the signing of Dikembe Mutombo is reason enough to pull for these guys out west.



I have to admit, I was not happy when the Sixers traded Theo Ratliff for Mutombo, but it proved to be the right move. I grew to really like Mutombo for his tremendous defense and rebounding, and he is a great guy. Who can ever forget his dominance in the Milwaukee series in 2001 and George Karl throwing a hissy fit after a reporter called him out for saying Mutombo would be a non-factor?

Who wants to come to LA with me?
