    before Shump came to houston, he was doing just fine in Sac.

    Some guys just don't fit on this team. its as simple as that. If anything, it disproves the ever so used theory that playing with harden/cp3 automatically makes you better. some people think you can just plug any guy next to them and results will just show. Not that this was the first actual example btw.

    I agree. but shump has been nothing but trash.. he gets a lot of open looks from CP3 & Harden kickout.
    He can't take it to the hole & miss open 3s..
    That's really all him, it wasn't like the rockets is asking him to do anything more than play tough D & hit open 3s.

    very underwhelming for sure but as long as he has houston on that jersey we still have to hope he can give us something. especially when the other bench guys aren't either.

    You guys really, really, really, really hated Ennis. Now you guys are using him to hate on Shump..

    Ennis couldn't stay in front of his man, but he did the little things I think the Rockets are missing now that House is not playing well.

    3nn15 €lubb3r$

    Honestly, 3nn15 was not great with Houston. More useful than $hump3r but whatever. Either way, the major thing now is that House, who was actually good, turned into a pumpkin.

    Ennis was awful with the Rockets. He wasn't good with Philly either until now. I'm glad he's doing well but I don't have any regrets.

    I must admit though that I'm surprised Shumpert has been poor. I know the first round pick was for tax savings, but I expected Shump to be better.

    I told y'all to trade Harden and build around Ennis. 500k vs 200 million.

    Hey, at least Shumpert wasn't gun shy in game 2 and was letting it fly from deep. It would have been nice if he made his shots, but it's not like he went off-script like MCW at every chance and completely bogged down our offense, or got constantly beat on the other end like Ennis earlier in the season (Ennis hustled but he just looked over his head). Shump did an alright job on Curry if I remember too. I'm not sure why Coach took him out, but I'm sure he had his reasons.

    If you're watching Ennis, you can see he's thriving more in a system that has more movement.

    He was not great here... I think some players just need to be moving more to be effective. Anyone who has played basketball can understand that, even if that's not what they need.

    Haha. Nice job!

    Luxury Tax Savings hasn’t been playing well so far. Maybe tomorrow...

    James is not the difference.

    Ariza is.

    I should add, I'm not sure why we never saw him after the first quarter (?) other than Rivers and Gerald actually being able to actually make their shots.

    Shumpert will come up big at some point for us, but never play more than a few minutes a game. I hope!

    James Ennis was really bad. Shumpert has been really bad. Don’t act like we took a huge hit

    So ENNIS is the answer we've been seeking all along!

    Morley had him right here and sent him packing! Now we'll never win a title!!
