yeah and expecting the likes of chriss and knight to help the rockets in a series like this against GS, let alone the playoffs. yeah no thanks. you can have all of that
The dude plays dumb in big moments. He's great in blowout and against dumb teams. He doesn't deserve the MLE. He deserves late lotto pick's contract if he's lucky.
We need Rivers. He is extremely important. He is a solid ball handler, good defense, smart, plays with toughness and intensity, keeps his ego in check, rarely makes mistakes, he can drive, and he can shoot. I really want to keep him around for the next few years.
This x1000000000000 Nothing to see here. The guy whose paid to do this **** knows better than us 99.999999999% of the time.
Saying folks here thought he “is an All Star” is a bit much, but sure, loads of members defended House and not just from you. He’s been a bitter disappointment, at least for me. I didn’t expect wondrous things from the kid, but I expected far more than he’s produced. You, and others, were right. House wasn’t playoff tested and expectations were too high. I think we’ll see him get much smaller offers than his agent is hoping for during the off-season. As this series continues, and as we advance, House may get another chance. If he does, he better make the most of it.
lol but should he still start over Gordon? I actually do think he will be useful against other teams if we manage to advance. Warriors are a different beast.
shumpert is a better perimeter defender than House and is a big reason Steph and Klay aren't wide open for 3s. He's a better defender against a team like the warriors because we are defending the 3 point line, KD, Steph, and Klay at all costs. We are basically giving up the mismatch inside the 3 point line. Rivers is also better at defending the 3. House has more value against the nuggets where he can put a body on jokic. and the bucks. or the spurs, or toronto. Coach knows what he's doing....
Great post You have to evaluate how a player plays in the post season not just half a season in the regular season Morey did this It wasn’t about being cheap It was about making a good investment
Hopefully the series doesn’t come down to the difference of playing a game 7 on the road vs at home which might’ve been reversed had the team used all the bullets in its chamber while seeding was on the line.
House and agent stupid... should have taken the 3 years guaranteed deal. He aint getting no MLE money....from anyone... he is going to have to settle.
He wouldn't have been removed from the starting lineup because the team was playing well, even after everyone else returned. Gordon would've stayed as the 6th man which wouldn't have been a big deal since he's done that most of his time here.
