He doesn't just play defense. He sets a defensive tone and intensity for team defense. As a teammate you get inspired to play defense when you see him defend like that.
Tuckers last defensive play on Lebron was unreal I am terrified that he will breakdown unless he gets some help. He is the heart and sould of our defense. If he could get some others on his team to play smarter and harder he wouldnt wear down. Im telling you he is going to be the next one to get hurt. They cant put so much on him
He deserves all the accolades that can be given for his unbelievable performance. GO PJ. GO HOUSTON ROCKETS!
That is why I have been hoping somewhat unrealistically though, that Morey can acquire James Johnson.
Then sign Pat Beverly next year during free agency. Sigh one can only dream. But that would be awesome if it were realistic.
I would pitch a CP-Bev-Harden-Butler-Tucker lineup against anyone just on defense and competitiveness alone. But the pieces complement each other as well!
That release though....have to shield my eyes. But even so...he's a special player. The best defender we've had since Chuck Hayes.
Tucker clapping his hands and moving his feet here. He is LIT. Ready to take on LeBron. How can you not get psyched for this!
Those suggesting that EGordon and PJ Tucker should be packaged for Jimmy Bucket are flat out deranged. Jimmy Bucket, in million years, cannot take on EGordon's offence and at same time, takes PJ Tucker's intangibles to this team plus the hard-nose defense effectively. He is not all that good - - plus, he doesn't want to be with the Rockets. I would take the two-for-one deal from the Rockets if I were the Minnie too. Thanks to DMorey for saying NO to Minnie's request for PJ Tucker.
