    Rafer may physically gone, but his shooting touch remains with the Rockets.

    Glen Davis was crying because she was fat and KG didn't find her attractive.

    Ah we're talking team mates ;)

    Thought you meant like the point guards he likes to go after on the opposition.

    Last 4 games:

    10/48 = 20.83%

    He should be used like Battier, no dribbling and no shooting unless you are WIDE open otherwise just rebound, pass, and play solid D.

    I'm a somewhat KG fan so I'll have to defend him. Garnett use to talk trash to Tim Duncan too in his Minny days and he did to LaMarcus Aldridge before as well last season. So it's not like he targets guys half his size and only half his size. Though, he does bully them a lot more cruelly.

    What's Ariza more likely to end up at this season?

    - 40% from the field, 35% from three
    - 35% from the field, 30% from three

    The first would be bad. The second would be epically, monumentally, historically bad. Yet I can't say the second is all that unlikely, much less out of the question.

    Ariza is crying, because Adelman said Morey has a verbal agreement with the Kings to trade T-Mac for Kevin Martin.

    Top 5 worst shooting percentages for the Rockets in 2009

    1. Budinger 40.9%
    2. Ariza 37.9%
    3. TMac 36.8%
    4. JT 31.6%
    5. Pops 25.0%

    Holy mother of douche - as crap as Ariza is shooting this season he's still hitting a better % than TMac?

    Looking at the numbers, there isn't really a 'much better' shooting option available in the wings to take minutes away from Ariza anyway...

    Lol, how is McGrady supposed to raise his percentage when he doesn't even play? And you could look at it another way, Ariza is just as good as an injured McGrady. Doesn't bode too well.

    take a statistics class dude, those numbers don't mean anything for t-mac, he's played too little for it to be statistically meaninful. The same is true for JT and Pops. (maybe even Chase, but I'd have to do actual calculations of confidence intervals, his case is not that clear).

    Just think, if Joey Dorsey came on for a single minute shot and made a single shot, and then left, he'd have a 100% percentage.

    That's the extreme of what you're trying to put on T-Mac and the other guys in that list that haven't played much minutes.

    Don't throw around numbers when you don't have a clue what you're talking about.

    Well, to be honest, you can't really put up T-Mac, JT, or Pops in there because they played such an insignificant amount of minutes they can't be counted. T-Mac played 7-8 mins a game and took 6 shots max and Ariza plays 6 times as many minutes and takes quite a few more shots. Statistically the more a person shoots, to a certain point, the better their FG% will get.

    Is that true? I thought players the FG% goes down with more shots, due to players having to take more inefficient shots to increase their volume.
    I could swear that's what some say about Ron Artest's improving percentages and Ariza's worsening percentages.

    This low FG% is more related to his injuries than his minutes.
    In 2008-09, T-mac averaged 38.8% FG in 34 min.
