I am done with Howard and his bonehead brother. Complete lack of effort, probably worse than T-Mac's last days here. Anybody that doesn't call him out on this bull**** and called Mcgrady out is a ****ing hypocrite.
how come i rarely hear about dwight's lingering knee injury from the naysayers? do they not follow the team? is this news to them?
This team has 3 guys with some of the lowest IQ's in the NBA playing major key rotation minutes in: Dwight, Smith, and Beverley. Replace all 3 of these guys in the rotation and our team takes off. There's a reason we looked best earlier this year when we had none of these boneheads. Dwight needs to just sit his ass until he's healthy or whatever if that's the issue. But Bev and Smith need to be off this team asap.
Dumping him is stupid. You can get Dragic and a first rounder for Dwight. I would do that. This team is better without Dwight, but teams would give assets for Dwight. So dumping him is r****ded.
I'm just tired of James busting his ass every night while these buffoons play like they're coasting. He was criticized last season for his defense, and he responded...raising his game on both ends of the court. He DESERVES that MVP because he is playing one. Sad to see him being dragged down by the likes of lazy players.
I was happy when he got here and Its sad to say but as a business man from a pure business stand point we need to dump him before his value drops, he looks done out there. Dwight for Dragic and Plumlee.
At this point, wtH not? Trade Dwight for Melo.. We can sign bring up Capella to play the rest of the season in Dwight's place. Melo would be the second playmaker. He's doing that in NY now.
lack of effort ? not tonight. Poor coaching, bad rotations, soft picks, bad shooting, bonehead passing. you sound like McHale - "come on guys, play harder!". we lost because of a lack of BB IQ. GSW is a horrible match up for us and effort has nothing to do with it.
Honestly, what we've seen recently makes me wonder if we'll even end up the 8th seed. The team seems to have regressed in its defense and obviously has no pride to defend. Even more importantly, it has become so Harden-reliant, that the minute he breaks this season from shouldering everything is the minute we start rolling downhill and out of the playoffs at top speed. Everybody knows there's no room for slop in The West.
Knee may also be an issue, but this is the truest post of the night. Same mistakes every game.....moving pick, step out of bounds, dip shoulder roughly into opposing center on his move to the basket for offensive foul (at worst time in the game), stupid goal tends, etc. Add that you know he will mentally miss free throws he can make (makes over 80% in practice) and the only reason I still want him out on the court is because he is so much better than Dorsey. I appreciate that he came to Houston, but this is a marriage that is clearly not working.
