    Hahaha. Laugh at yourself buddy. You just agreed with me. I said Russ was a bad shooter. You got upset at me posting that. And now you basically said Russ is a bad shooter but can get better. Thank you for this pointless exchange. I apologize for not writing “guys Russ is not a bad shooter he just hasn’t improved yet, don’t point out what’s factual”

    PJ was great against the Hamptons 5 playing center.

    He shouldn't be playing center much if at all anymore and certainly shouldn't be playing 40 minutes a night. They really need to find another 4 with size to help cut down on PJ's minutes, or he will be worn out by the playoffs. Playing vets too many minutes in the regular season is one of MDA's biggest faults. IMHO.

    smh guess u not very bright.. he was a bad shooter...I'm talking bout in houston...the jury still out on if he will be bad here. you can determine that when a guy has a injury on his fingers(u know you need that to shoot) so yea dont know where u got that from. you was saying Westbrook is shooting bad....ah well fuh his hand is hurt....no one know if he wr qould of shot badness here..I repeat here...if not for the hand injury

    So you're saying his entire career + the 12 games in Houston are too small of a sample size? Well I think we'll definitely know if he's a good shooter by around age 35.

    Of course I watched him played. How did your statements about his speed and volleyball skills conflict with my point that he totally outclassed his competition who were mostly chain smoking white dudes 5 inches shorter than Wilt?

    I wasn’t saying he wasn’t extraordinary, just saying that today the competition is ALL extraordinary.

    @mike2k132 What in the world is wrong with you? Like this guy said, he’s always been a bad shooter. If he gets healthy, and he shoots better, then you can claim that you knew he would IMPROVE, and that’s it. It still wouldn’t change the fact that he’s been a poor shooter to this point. You can’t call people out for saying he’s a bad shooter when we’re basing it on the past few years and his current status and your argument is his fingers are hurt and he’s only played 11 games with his current team.

    Really a great find. Thanks, man. Mitchell and Smith, and the other guy (who’s name escapes me) with some great commentary during the latter part of last night’s game, while covering several other games. Terrific praise of James. Time to see if he can garner some more due to tonight’s game. Let’s go against the odds and pull out another win!

    Go Rockets!
