    Sounds like very good news. Didn't know anything about the turf toe before.

    Good to hear Jordan was limited by an injury in Summer League. I was worried that he was going to be a bust.

    But he still cannot even handle Johnson 1 on 1! You are worthless if you cannot handle Johnson!

    Kevin Martin needs to gain 10-15 lbs. At his current weight, he is still too small and easily injured.

    but i have it on very high authority that seveal clutchfans posters think Hill is the new miki moore and can never be a true contributor

    surely this story must be musings of the rockets communist network

    Article doesn't say at all that Hill's been a camp standout.

    It cites others as being standouts, and Hill having improved from his really crummy summer league play.

    Sorry, my native language is not english (but hungarian), so maybe I misunderstood the following two sentences:

    I guess it says Hill was one of the camp standouts. But anyway, I'm hungarian, I must be the one who is mistaken here.

    Pump up his value with a little media article. If they sign Dampier, I don't think you'll see Hill in a Rocket uniform opening day.

    AXIOM I.: Hill sucks.
    AXIOM II.: "The media" has a hidden agenda: pumping up the values of Houston's trade baits.

    COROLLARY I of AXIOM I.: Hill's ceiling at HOU is "trade bait" (at most).

    FACT I.: Hill is being praised.

    THEOREM I.: If FACT I. holds, it can only indicate that the media is pumping up his value.

    It's logical, really. But! What happens if we do not accept AXIOM I.? Well, then, he is maybe, just maybe being praised essentially because he deserves it?

    Exercise: How do you interpret FACT I if we do not accept AXIOM I and II as true propositions?

    good, but Im always weary of these happy go lucky training camp articles.. EVERYbody always look great and has an 'outstanding' camp and then when the preseason begins, I be like'wtf, I thought he was killing it?' Ill believe it when I see it, just a week and a half ago Alexander was embarrassing him so Ill just wait and and see first

    Other ridiculous clutchfan comments:

    -Chase budinger is better than JR Smith
    -Kirk Hinrich is upgrade at point if we trade our MIP Aaron Brooks
    -We shouldnt trade Melo, because Martin is a better player (according they're +/- stats :rolleyes: )
    -Jermaine Taylor is better than Von Wafer ever was
    -JVG was a better coach than RA, he just didnt have the talent (A healthy Yao and Tmac :rolleyes: )
    -We should trade Yao for Jakim Noah, lmao.

    Houston sports fans are stupid.

    but we do tend to overrate (Chase, Landry, Taylor, Wafer) or undervalue (Brooks, Martin) our talent when we have em here.
