    LOL,

    I never said Prigi is the answer, I'm just saying he's not a turnover machine and makes good decisions.

    If you don't threads don't post in them, but you do, so you are a hypocrite

    I know he's a troll, but this was the only Pablo specific thread on the first page so I went with it.

    Increasing his minutes makes sense. I feel it's hard to argue otherwise.

    If Terry is not scoring they need to let Prig get the minutes. He may not be the reason you win a game but sure he won't be a reason you lost. He is a save, minimum mistake guy and with all the T.O. prone players in these team to have a guy who won't shoot you in the foot more time is a plus.

    He did a heck lot better than I thought. He deserves props for his professionalism and hard work.

    He did great in his minutes but idiot McHale with his pre-set pre-established rotations laid out on paper pulled him out for JET who did NOTHING all game.

    Same thing in the 1st Quarter. Ariza has the only hot hand amongst all Rockets going 4/4 FG's and McHale pulls him out for Brewer because his notes tell him to do so. Such a robot.

    Anyway, I want to see more of Prigs than JET. If JET is shooting bricks he is worthless. Prigs is a better ball handler, takes care of the ball better and makes better decisions with the ball.

    Yeah Prigs isnt seen as a "glue guy", thats usually for swingmen for some reason, though by definition he is. Lots of intangibles working in background, no big stats but is net-positive.

    Rockets have an OUTSTANDING record when Jet STARTS. He helped us get the #2 seed in the first place. And a lot without Dwight

    Lets not act like McHale has been totally unaware. Joey Dorsey is now riding pine with raw rookie Clint Capela getting time, that took giving up pride.

    Prigs has been amazing, tonight with the back to back 3s he was the passer.

    The smartest player on our team.

    Which is pretty sad.

    He's a terrific player. I wonder if his Argentine buddies like Ginoboli and Scola are watching this game.

    Is this s fact?

    BTW, Other than a sporadic shooting night, Terry is giving us nothing. He is the one who should retire.

    Again, having someone who's not running around like a chicken with his head cut off like last year is paying dividends.

    at least you're not going to worry that he's going to do a bunch of jump passes and I think Prig's got a decent jumper.
