    He's obviously already tired of Westbrook's nonsense.

    Why wouldnt he play. Tucker is the one guy that could get better at this point from this experience.

    All the other guys are allstars, n Gordon is injury prone n too important to us.

    Tucker is a tank. He the type of guy u always want playing.

    Live reaction from both coach Pop and coach K after such important decision from Tucker.

    At this point in his career Tucker will only trend downwards. Aging is undefeated.

    his 3 ball has trended upward as well as his defense being here, more than any other point of his career.

    Sure. I just feel it’s a tad unrealistic to expect a soon to be 35 year old player to improve with more minutes on his body. But I get it, this is likely his last chance to do this.

    i don't think he needs to necessarily improve. doubt anyone is. he is who he is. just being steady at what hes done for the last 2 years is just fine and what the rockets need him to be. hes certainly outplaying what hes actually being paid for here

    Not disputing that. I was disputing the notion that PJ would get better by playing over the summer. That is what the poster I replied to was suggesting. :)

    The 5 All Stars on this team are all from Eastern Conference.

    If those 5 guys played in Western Conference, there would be ZERO all stars on the team.

    JVG need to coach this team. He can turn water into wine.

    USA USA USA

    I hope 34 years Tucker isn't going to be worn out in October. That's a lot of traveling in those 2 months from August and September.
    LOTS OF CITIES and KFC eating in China
