I don't know how he "needs" to play. But I'd like to see a whole lot more of how he "can" play with Yao and any other trio which TOTALLY excludes...
Maggette gets injured too frequently. Battier's true value is obscurred by the "nice guy" factor and a league awash in talented SF-SG types....
The "drop off" comes from you...as expected..distorting the facts. The "great" 50 win defensive team you're crowing about (Hubie's first) gave...
Which part of the Rockets 105-99 loss to MEM are you struggling with? The part where Yao and McGrady combined for 63 of the 99 points? Maybe it's...
And the numbers YOU look at tell us Chuck Hayes is the NBA MVP. I've given up on trying to get you to put down the math book and actually WATCH a...
Totally worthless isolated stat. Cases in point... SAS: Ginobili +25.1 Duncan +8.3 Parker +2.9 Barry +2.3 Oberto +1.7 Vaughn +11.1...
I've never been "up in the air" or "on the fence" about Battier. Bad trade from Minute 1. When you have the slowest Center in the league, you...
I'm sure Tom T is an excellent bench coach. But IMHO, Jeff Van Gundy is the real defensive genius that left the Rockets. Unfortunately, Van...
You think maybe the Rockets defense would have improved a little if they'd have acquired Kevin Garnet? Right, it's all Tom T...forget KG. :rolleyes:
It is definitley NOT the same sets. Yao in the high post, McGrady at the L of the FT line, 3 strongside players in a modified triangle, back picks...
Let's see... Eddie Griffin over Richard Jefferson... Jason Collier (and eventually Nachbar who we wouldn't play) over Pryzbilla Shane...
DaDa- I'm probably the only one that caught this. During the 4th quarter, Van Gundy basically said the same thing...paraphrasing..."they need...
DaDa - I don't think Morey would say that. It would probably be something along the lines of Alston having the 2nd highest Plus/Minus of any...
I don't play fantasy basketball. But I do watch. Sometime too much. Dirk ISO'd and scored in 3 straight possessions with less than 4:30 in the...
Nice report and I'm happy you had good seats. But they must have been on the opposite end of the court from where Dallas applied the pressure for...
Do you have a point? They could have acquired Gabriel and The Angel's but if they're not on the court...what does it matter? Here is the...
I can only think of three. 1) Mark Cuban is a nuevo-riche arse. 2) Don Nelson recognized the value of matchups in selecting personnel. 3)...
DaDa- Repeating myself...fatigue makes cowards out of everyone. Secondly, 95% of this board is a Chuck Hayes and Shane Battier fan. THEY...
Nothing is going to happen. Repeat...nothing. If the Rockets go back to winning, it will be because Yao and McGrady score enough points with...
No. The SHAME is that someone thought mono-dimensional role players including standstill spot up shooters was all that was needed. Fatigue makes...
