    Another score for Morey. The meter for Morey to continue as Rockets just tilted for longer tenure.

    Can't believe starting a skilled player over an unskilled player lead to good results. Can't believe it.

    Dekker scored 30 but his plus/minus was only +2. Cause for concern?

    Sam Dekker not an All-Star. Morey sucks as a drafter.

    Sam Definitely did his thing tonite
    Glad to see he is coming to his own
    If he is even HALF as good as he was tonite . . . that makes him a VERY SOLID player in this league
    All he needs not is consistency.

    Now the question is, is Chandler Parsons a poor man's Dekker?

    Ive said a few times that, already adding insult to Brewer's bad offense, he's a really lousy rebounder (especially at his height, just wasted length). Just another thing to consider against Brewer toward using another player.

    Dekker as starter and ryno as bench. Will it be more good?

    You do realize when Parsons was healthy and a Rocket he had many 30 pt games? You got to have a bigger sample size dude.

    Has Sam Dekker replaced Dmo as the Rockets new X-Factor?

    Need BBholic to confirm.

    This is without a doubt our SF or maybe even PF of the future if we really want to go small ball. I was considering to use him as an asset to get D. Cousins, but he's a keeper.

    Good points. But I will say that Dekker is more physically gifted/talented than Parsons ever was. He has a good feel for the game as well.

    I always think it's a mistake to compare 2 players who are in different stages in their careers.

    At this point is his career, Chandy is a rich man's Louie Anderson.
