Casspi's not in there to playmake. We have Lin, Harden, Brooks. He's in there to spread the floor and hit 3's...and every month it seems like he's getting worse at doing that. I think he's a decent offensive player but his new style of non-three, playmaking offense is not what the Rockets really need. Our three point shooting has been pretty bad of late. The Atlanta game was no exception. Harden and Lin drive, and pass out; Howard posts, and passes out. That's our offense. Right now we need three point shooters. On a separate note...Garcia was 1-7 today, 0-4 from three, also committed needless fouls
I'm glad I unintentionally napped in that game. Coach McHale has made reference that he doesn't know what some players are thinking. I think it probably keeping Omri Casspi off the court. Getting some playoff experience as well as some communication experience outside of basketball is what he needs for a successful year.
Some interesting stats in that article. I wonder why Casspi didn't get more burn with Parsons out. Maybe they really want to use him exclusively as a stretch 4, not as a 3. I think he can also be useful at the 3, in certain match-ups.
