    Adjusting to Houston? TR is adjusting to not sucking in the NBA.

    Robinson's career high in rebounds in a game is 14 despite playing less than one year in the NBA and being a bench player, Patterson's is 13 despite several more years in the league( the trade was a good one for the rockets, and you just need patience with this kid). No one plays particularly well their first game with a new team.

    --------------------------------------

    to put in context TRob's potential

    Patrick Paterson 10+ rebound games this year = 4
    Thomas Robinson 10+ rebound games this year = 5

    Patrick Patterson games over 30+ minutes played = 14
    Thomas Robinson games over 30+minutes played = 1

    The one legit concern with T Rob that you can get from his extremely limited time on the court in houston was the spacing when paired with asik. There were multiple occasions where they ran to the exact same spot, and they were basically in the same area the whole time. Surely when he gets more comfortable it wont be as comical as the other night, but the issue remains. Although it would be quite a small lineup he may be better suited being paired up with D Mo

    he just looked lost out there, but that is too be expected with not only being a rookie, but also being traded midseason

    He is a long way from not sucking in the NBA. The Rockets should see if he sucks in RGV first.

    Malone bear hugged him!!!!!!!!! it was the most illegal pick I have ever seen, so I've got sympathy on that for Barkley.
