Thanks Clutch for the vids. Omer is doing a fine job....and he's learning to dunk more and more :grin: ...love it!
What a wonderful Rockets Christmas gift, Asik in Sweet heart Chicago! Coast to coast! Just the kind of guy Houston loves.
Asik does have some fancy moves that he is getting a good handle on. Just needs about a year of polishing and he will be a dominant force and a budding all-star. Definitely the biggest surprise from the busy offseason. Without him, we would be doomed.
Dude needs to be paid bonuses and given awards for the amount of blood he always spills on the court. AND he always comes back! Amazing. I hope the coaching staff is praising the absolute **** outta Omer.
I love the improvement in Asik's offensive game. You can tell he isn't rushing his decisions when he gets the ball under the rim anymore. A lot more dunks now. Also drawing fouls and making them.
Asik showed again tonight just how smart he is in the game. His slam off the miss by Patterson closed the game out. He is a beast.
May be a knee jerk. But dare I say he is the MVP of this team right now. Yes, he's even more important than Harden. You hear me say this.

Not a knee jerk at all. I have been calling him the MVP since before pre-season. He anchors the defense. Teams run lay up drills against us when he is out. I knew that Omer would play like this the guy is just a stud.
