Rockets going after Corey Brewer and Chicken Man Jr.

Doubt it was Houston but...

Belinelli's an inefficient chucker. Dunleavy is an efficient multi-skilled player who Parsons could've learnt from, helped improve his game

One overlooked aspect about Dunleavy's game is his "quarterbacking" skills. Granger used to compliement him in interviews for helping to create better ball movement by being on floor. Dunleavy's presence would've helped the Rockets dealing with "sticky ball".

 

Dunleavy would've been GREAT for the young Rockets. Rockets' loss.

 

Bring Cisco back.

 

i dont mind dunleavy signing elsewhere. no real loss.

its better to steal a guy from a division or conference rival that a guy from the east.

 

Mike D. Jr. is a solid fundamentals player. His best weapon is the backdoor cut. Not only is he a great 3-point shooter, but he moves really well without the ball and can cut to the basket for easy layups, whenever he finds an opening.
That's something I wish Parson can pick up.

 

Both were long shots anyway.

 

Morey is handcuffed right now. He can't really sign anybody until Dwight makes his decision .... and it's going to take a long while.

 

Didn't even want this guy, I would rather have either Garcia or Delfino

Bring back Garcia - if only that shot had been the game winner!

 

Brewer it is..

 

Why on earth are we going after Brewer? He can't shoot. Has anyone watched this guy closely and sees something special; something I'm not seeing? I just don't get it.

According to Mark Stein-

Word is Corey Brewer, on top looming sitdown w/Rockets, drawing interest from New Orleans and Atlanta as well. Also: Denver wants him back

 

One of the better defenders, but not so good shooter

role player mode activated... he does something well

 

He is a high energy guy. He was the reason why Denver's bench was so good. Andre Miller to, but in almost every game he came in changed the tone when they were stagnante and going through the motions. He fits well with the young high octaine core we have.

 

He's a good perimeter defender and it's well documented that DM covets a player that fits that description.

 

would rather have garcia back

 

I'm a huge fan of signing brewer regardless of whether we get Howard or not. He would be ideal coming off the bench in our high paced offense. As much as Parsons would run down the court after a change of possession and feast off those easy buckets, Brewer will do twice as much! Brewer is super fast! Alot of energy off the bench which what the rockets need. He's going to score easy buckets and that's important to have especially when your starters are resting. He has good perimeter defense and because of his size I would expect him to finish games if Rockets decide to go small ball (in that game). As far as his 3s go, I was a little shocked to see that it was only at 29%, but when watching the nuggets, it always seemed liked Brewer was doing well, especially from the corner 3. There also this article by CBS that talks about his excellent transition play for Denver last year.

Agreed. We need shooters. I'm sure Brewer would fit our transition game well and be a nice spark off the bench, but if we are building around Dwight, it's guys like Dunlevey, Delfino, and Garcia we need. If we can find a way to get Brewer and shooters, I'm all for it, but not at the expense of shooters. We lost our 2 best pure shooters this offseason. We need to fill that hole.

 

Brewer makes a lot of sense. He's 6'9. Long, athletic, great perimeter defender. He's 27. Same age as Dwight. Perfect backup for Parsons who is also a big wing.

 

Brewer may be as tall as parsons but theres a 40 pound difference between em lol idk how could guard 3's.
