    The same idiots who wanted Canaan to get regular minutes?

    Can you imagine what the team would have looked like with him on the roster instead of Prigs? You will never hear them admit it, but Prigs is a huge upgrade over Canaan.

    Not going to lie, but in the second quarter when he threw up the second three on back to back trips I had already cussed mid ball flight.

    He doesn't turn the ball over. That is probably the best part about him.

    It's weird how he always seems to take his 3's a few steps behind the line. I guess it's to keep his low trajectory shot from being blocked but still looks wrong.

    If he can give us Knicks pablo shooting it would be really cool.

    I was just expecting a 3 point specialist when we got him. He's a whole lot more than that.

    Obligatory comparison video:

    Just watched the replay, Prigs was GREAT last night. First time in a long time Rockets have proper PG play.

    Pablo's been a very nice surprise. I hate to think where we'd be if we had to depend on Nick Johnson backing up Terry, who's supposed to be the backup himself. Bev's loss has been a blow. We'll continue to wish we had him suited up in the second round. Paul or Parker/Mills? Damn.

    Great post.

    To that poster who keeps bringing up us losing last year, we did lose last year in the first round because of shaky point guard play .

    Not defensively but just basic point guard 101 stuff.

    We don't want any insane point guard, we want someone with a brain

    He really is the anti-Lin. So steady. He's a pure bred PG.

    Great job by Prigs, definitely a timely move my Morey since Bev got injured. Pablo isn't just mistake free, he also wasn't a defensive liability so he was great on the floor for us when Jet was firing blanks.

    I like Prigs, but I would love Prigs if he shot his career average with us. That is is all we need to really take it to the next level.

    Don't get it. Our offense was bad with Pablo on the court in this series.

    Hit some shots, Prigi. Don't be like Ariza and throw up bricks left and right.
