    I don't think these guys are ever going to see any minutes with MDA as a coach. He won't even try.

    At least they'll play before getting traded or cut.

    Abandoning young players needing development.

    Is it not odd Clemons isn't sent down too? He will start eating up his two ways days once the G-League starts and he isn't sniffing minutes so far.

    Nope. Gary Clark has a chance but he failed to impress really quickly. Now he is done.

    I know I'm one of the few on Clutchfans, but I thought he impressed. Impressed enough to get more playing time at least.

    When Melo died, Gary did so well in his place, Rockets media started putting him on the promotional materials. Harden and CP3 pleaded for him to start a game when MDA was going to roll with 7 players and he played well again.

    Gary had that one disaster of a game AS A ROOKIE and had a shooting slump that EG gets to have for 2 months to start every season and was never seen again.

    Hartenstein is not an nba caliber player. And Clark hasn’t shown much either.

    Clark needs to be playing. He can play the 4 or the 5. This team always works best when we can spread the floor. Don’t get this at all.

    This is even worse than staying in the minors in baseball , at least there you could move up a level .

    Our player development kinda sucks .

    I disagree. You coach people up. Capela could only run fast when he was a Rookie, now people say he is a part of the Rockets big three.

    Hartenstein has a great motor and can shoot. Gary has Battier-like intangABILTY.

    A patient coach would put these guys in a position to succeed. When you got players like Harden and Russ, you just need hustle dirty work players o fill in.

    Hartenstein going for 50 points 50 rebounds 50 blocks a game in the G League. A triple quintuple.

    They both need time in the NBA or moved. They both are who they are and g league doesn’t help them be any better for the Rockets. It is time to part ways if this is their future, IMO. The g league is a failure by the time they develop they are at the end of their contract and want to be paid (DMo) or it never happens. Winning in the valley doesn’t do anything for the Rockets.
