This one is on Adelman and Brooks he overplayed Landry when he was being schooled by Millsap. Should have played Scola who was being effective. Also came into the game late and played like a ballhog. Result 14-2 run by the Jazz.
I WOULD LOVE TO TRADE BATTIER. however if jefferies took 2 first rounders I dont think battier will take much less so wait til next trade deadline!!!
Can we please trade one or two of our rotation players for an upgrade at one of our positions? This is getting old losing all the time.
Brooks was 1-10 in the second half and did almost nothing else productive save a few good efforts on defense, believe it or not. At least Battier is a solid defender. I'm not excusing his performance but he was far from the only player that played poorly. Landry was owned by Millsap. I think it's more than just the lack of Lowry. That would help but teams are also paying him more and more attention as the season goes on. There will be more nights like this for him, even when Lowry returns, until he starts making better decisions under pressure.
Landry look weak tonight the all star break meant too many nights out for Landry. Instead of coming back strong from the break it looked like he didn't get his rest.
Hayes, Battier, and maybe Ariza shouldn't be starters for any decent team. Scrubola and Brooks aren't consistent. We're going to lose a lot of games.
He's our best option, unfortunately... it wouldn't hurt if Brooks created a play for Scola or Landry though...his driving to the rack thing is getting old.
there are 30 more games we are 3 games out of the playoffs how are you just going to make that assumption after 1 loss to a top 5 team who beat basically every top team in the nba in the past month when our best players had his worst game of the season o nce Lowry comes back and we get some value out of Mcgrady's contract what makes you think we cant win at least 15 of 30?
I'd take it a step further when he plays like he did in the 2nd half. Sit his ass on the bench, particularly when Lowry gets back, assuming Brooks doesn't get traded. Adelman needs to do something to teach Brooks that it's not okay to keep making horrible decisions over and over again. Popovich would have had Temple in the game if his PG was playing that horribly for that long of a period. He wouldn't even allow it to continue, in fact.
I told you guys that the whole "we play as a unit/team" will die down. haha now that my boy t-mac is leaving houston, the team that gets him will have a better chance of making the playoff then these houston we have a problem rockets. :grin:
I guess so, but his turn-overs, getting stuffed and bricks always seem to come in during crunch time.
Aaron Brooks had a brief moment of insanity and thought he was Kyle Brooks. After bricking his last 5 shots, he came down to earth and realized he was nowhere near as good.
