    Guy is one of the sickest street ballers...but his size is a big issue, i think in that field Robinson has made the best impact of being small but still jacked, strong and quick enough to compete.

    His high school highlights were sick.

    And then he got arrested...

    Poor man's Nate Robinson. Nate is way better even at Nate's age right now.
    However, considering Aquille is 3 inches shorter (5'6") he's still very impressive.

    So 18 year old gets arrested for assaulting mother of his child, now he shows love to christian jesus for signing with Rockets... Doesn't christian jesus teach you not to have pre marital intercourse or beat women?

    It's because youtube has creepy powers of advertising videos very similar to your browsing history. Literally. I'd go google something that I never googled before and then would go to youtube and that thing I was googling would be top 5 suggested video for me....

    A complete defensive liability, he couldn't last on the floor for a minute before he'd be made into a turnstile

    You watched his games in HS or do you just expect it because of height? Just curious, would be cool if someone here followed him a bit and could tell us a bit more.

    We have a defensive team, minus T. Jones, so for Carr this is a logical place to be. After all we got used to play 4 vs 5 on defense when Harden doesn't bother to help.

    But yeah, imagine Westbrook vs Carr.

    People who believe in God aren't saints. Everybody is a sinner.

    People wrongly believe a Christian is a hypocrite if they sin.

    I'm guessing this is a move for RGV? Should make them a fun team to watch.
