    He's been a pleasant surprise, I could go into the playoffs and be content with him if we must. Rather see Kyle but it doesn't matter what I'd rather see.

    If we can only get the real Kevin Martin back for a playoff run. Anyways Good Hustle Earl Boykins :slap on butt: as he heads to the locker room. No homo.

    He did great last night, McHale left him in a bit too long, but he still did awesome and goran got some rest.

    Anythings better than Fortson... ANYTHING :grin: but this guy puts in a good 10-20 mins of hard effort every night with a veteran saavy that limits his turnovers. Great pickup by the Rockets.

    He is a good player, gave a good spark off the bench last night.

    The Chicago announcers were calling him "Earl Boinkins" lol.

    Since Boykins wasn't with a team before 23rd March (waiver deadline) can he play for us in the playoffs? If not, then Morey screwed up big time!

    Boykins is eligible for the playoffs!! Please morey, you moron, sign him already for the rest of the season. Remember in 2008 when Rafer was out for the 1st two games @ home which we lost?? He was a huge reason why we didn't win those games because we had Bobby Jackson and no back-up! You have to learn from your mistakes so Morey better do it. There's no way in case of injury to Lowry / Dragic that Fortson can contribute. However, Earl can and it's always good to have another veteran around to help out.
