[The Undefeated] Austin Rivers: ‘It’s the happiest I’ve been in my career’

Jeez can you give it a rest buddy? A third of your posts are about Austin Rivers. I'm joking, welcome here!

Austin has been such a breath of fresh air. Now I'm just eagerly awaiting the return of EG. CP3 can take his time, but we seriously need EG to return.

 

Latest word from D'Antoni is EG is out another week. I think they're just giving him extra rest. After the Bucks, the Rockets face the Cavs, Magic(on the road), Grizzlies, and Nets. All 4 of those games are winnable without Gordon.

 

Just need Knight to step up, still looks lost.

I wonder how happy Rivers will be once he's 4th guard off the bench.

 

He's keeping it real. He's not even pretending he knows how it's like to be poor. He's a rich kid and needs different motivation.

 

Hell, 2 of those games should be winnable without Harden. But we will still see MDA put Harden out there for 40 mins a game.

 

I've loved him so far. There was a play yesterday where the Nuggets kept getting the offensive rebound and he chased to contest the shot...3 or 4 times I think? Then ran out on the fast break even though you could tell he was dead tired. Loved it.

 

He is going to be 6th man once Eg and Paul come back.... him or green... Still is going to play 28+ mins.

 

Who cares. Harden is young. He loves to be out there and hoop. He doesnt have the same problems Paul does.

I know what you mean... but it doesnt affect him as much as we like to imagine.

Helps when you’re not working for your dad. In what industry could any grown man feel happy working for his dad?

 

Lets see what he says after cp3 takes his pt

 

i guess you didn't read the full article

 

this is actually a great article with a lot of insight.

 

We've hated on Rivers and previously, he had given plenty of reasons to do so. However, not only he is now a Rocket, but a vital player in our rotation who has injected energy to our team.

Austin Rivers, warmly welcome to the team and I hope your stay here is as long as your remaining career!

We love you too Rivers. Morey is your real father. Forget about Doc that ******* traded you for a bag potato chips.

 

Love his pitch that the rich kid is the one who has to have a chip on his shoulder, to overcome a childhood of being coddled! That is some Olympic-level spinmanship.

 

Perhaps he or Gordon should start and the other can be 6th man. Both win-win options.
