I think Clint is the perfect big man for our system. He’s not bigger than many centers but we don’t want that. He’s light on his feet for a big, got good hands for catching and redirecting in midair to finish shots off the PnR, and he’s sound enough on defense at this point to be a menace for guards driving the paint. Also on the spectrum of big men he is among the healthier ones and based on his body composition you would expect this continue. Come back and ask me how great a fit he is when he’s making $20M per year, but for now I think he’s doing most of what we could ask from him.
I think he'll be even better next year. His growth year to year has been astounding and I wasn't a big fan at first either but he has turned me around.
He always take a day off against taller or more skilled bigs. Clint use your body not just your long arms and jus jump high thinking no one can block you. This is the NBA there are more athletic players so know your personnel and use ur body to get some contact just like DJ or Nene or a lot of other smaller players do.
Posters bashing Clint sound like the media bashing the Rockets postseason success. Bump the exaggeration down a notch.
Big fan of this guy. Surprised no one here seems impressed with his soccer skills, left-footed no less. He's only getting better, I hope to goodness he can be a longterm Rocket after this season, but if we HAVE to go with DJ I won't complain (Strictly because he's a hometown guy).
