    Centers that i believe should be options for the Rockets
    1) Nene - Great center but is 29yrs and overprice. I think he is worth it though.
    2) Kyrylo Fesenko - Young, cheap and perfect for Rockets but is foul prone and is underexperience with no offensive threat. Great defender though
    2) Samuel Dalembert - Best veteran out there but can be overprice
    3) Jeff Foster - old but better than thabeet
    4) Joel Pryzbilla - old and injury prone but great defender
    5) Reggie Evans - old and undersize as a center at 6 8 but can rebound and play defense well
    6) Joey Dorsey - young and cheap, great defender and rebounder but is foul prone, inexperience and no offensive threat. No potential too and undersize
    7) Troy Murphy - Like Donut 6 11, offensive threat, but no defense, rebound, or anything else unless there is shooting involved
    8) Kenyon Martin - old and overprice but great defender and average offense threat but is undersize at 6 9 for center.

    I think Fesnko is perfect for our team but he will need like 2-4 years to develop.
    Nene and Dalembert are other great options but are overprice
    Foster and Pryzbilla are great as starting centers for 1 season as they have experience and they are affordable too.

    What do you guys think we should sign???

    Oh and there is YI Jialian too???

    Why spend money signing a center so we can draft at 11th instead of 3rd?

    Play the current lineup.

    It'll be a painful season but only 60ish games.

    3 questions:
    Since when is Joey Dorsey a "great rebounder" or defender?
    Since when is Troy Murphy a poor rebounder?
    Since when is Kenyon Martin a center?

    Fesenko, he can contribute right away and still grow, plus we'd have him and Thabeet competing for minutes, maybe that could light a fire under Thabeet's ass.

    Wait, why not Yi? He is a UFA, has a decent touch, dominated in FIBA, and he is 7'. At worst, he would be a good bench player. How expensive could he be?

    These kinds of threads are the reason why I don't visit the GARM much anymore.

    Our lineup is the worst since Barkley blew his knee, bringing in Yi wouldn't be a bad idea at this point. Rockets are lottery bound.

    Exactly how many games did Kenyon Martin play as a center? My guess is very very few. He is a PF
