    Crap trade. Rockets got screwed.

    I have a hard time beieving that Kmart can do more for us than Tmac (even at 75% of what he was).

    Plus we would still have carl.

    This is a classic example of a coach bringing in his people. Good or not. And the last few times it didn't work out. RA has a bad record.

    Bonzi
    Bobby Jax
    Artest
    Now Kevin Martin

    In a few years when Adalman is gone we will realize we gave mcgrady away for nothing

    If you ask anyone on the board if it would be possible to trade Carl for a player like K-mart they would have told you no. Morey traded a second round tweener PF for a 6'7 high percentage SG that's only 27.

    McGrady was expiring and worth nothing and he turned into 3 potential lotto picks.

    Stop talking about the past..we're talking right now and its only .535. He is currently NOT a high percentage shooting guard. Instead of trying to argue I'll let the next 10 games he plays with the rockets show you.

    If it's that high He's top 15 in the league.

    and guess what? Centers and Forwards own the FG% stat. A SG that hits at that clip is ELITE!!

    you're killing your argument.

    Donte Green is actually shooting at a really good clip this year in limited minutes.

    Karolik is right also. Right now Kevin Martin is not having a good shooting year. Maybe that has to do with the players around him (Evans a ballhog? No post presence? etc) maybe it has to do with returning from injury. We'll have to wait and see.

    If Martin for the Rockets is Martin of the Kings this year, he is not a top player. If he returns to form however, he is the perfect fit for this team and is an elite shooter.

    So your contention is that his poor shooting in the 20 games after returning from surgery on his shooting wrist means he'll never regain the same shooting efficiency he has demonstrated throughout his entire career?

    Was there any other reasons you think he has no chance of ever returning to his former production? If that's it, I don't think that's near enough evidence to suggest he can't return to that form.

    oh, you went to TS. fine.

    He's on a team with a ball hog SG playing PG.

    He just got back from an injury and had to change his style to fit in.

    If you want to talk about NOW how about 3 months ago.

    tell me that clip is not impressive and if you say "anyone can do that on a given night" I will just stop wasting my time with you.

    Again, I never said he wouldn't return to form. But as of right NOW, he's not a " high percentage" SG, and i'd trust a stretch of 20 games more than 1 game Reeko. The injuries, tyreke ect...are all just excuses for now for his poor shooting..Whether they are good excuses we will see...i sure hope so because otherwise it would be a sign of decline.

    Yeah crap players like Granger and Kobe shoot in that range. Forget the fact that he is coming off an injury (he is at 53% despite 3 sub 15% shooting games early in his come back), this is his only season since his rookie season where he is below 60% (elite type numbers), and that he was adjusting to playing off of Evans when he came back. Whatever he is smoking, you could use some to lighten up a bit. Why don't you wait until he plays few games for the Rockets before you get your panties twisted in a bunch.
