    If the Rockets told Lawson the rumors was false it's probably cause Brooklyn laughed at the idea of giving up Bodonavic. That dude has a bright future in this league.

    LOol ok but we're talking about a professional basketball player that's been playing the game for years ... Sure if you toss the keys to joe schmo he'll struggle but a pro racer will be turning in some nice times after a couple of laps .. it's just basketball ,no one is asking the guy to solve the pythagorean theorem .

    Hopefully the Pythagorean theorem isn't the benchmark for intelligence in modern society

    Isn't the pythagorean theorem what brought Europe out of the dark ages?

    The more he can learn to play as if Harden is his 2 guard, rather than Harden first and 2 guard second, the better. They have to be on the court together sometimes. Yes, he has to learn plays, but the basic structure of what is done is common to most teams. Variations and "reaction" is what varies and that also depends on personnel on the court.

    It's just hard to have "personalities,"; i.e., Howard, Harden, Lawson (or substitute James, Bosh, Wade) learning to balance their reputation with doing what will make the team best -- there can be a lot of stop and go, like 2 people trying to usher each other through the door. Hopefully, sooner rather than later they just go through the door without a lot of misplaced deference. If/when that starts to happen the rest of the guys will also start to play more instinctively.

    how did cyberx's rep take a hit? He confirm earlier in this very thread that this was probably Brooklyn contacting Houston and then leaking it to the media.

    I don't know if that was brought civilization out of the Dark Ages or not, to be honest, I'm just saying its taught in grade school geometry so its not a benchmark for intelligence, but in general my point isn't exactly relevant to the discussion so I apologize :)

    More pertinently, Bogdanovic and Jack are looking good tonight

    We have a point guard that can't score a layup.

    We also have a fat, lazy, flopping, no work, fake superstar shooting guard who can't score a layup too.

    His rep will never take a hit he continues to deliver and people continue to doubt the man, don't know why


    He's all we got around here until WOJ drops things

    The sooner we get rid off Harden junior, the better. I liked him in Denver, but too many flags surrounding him. Counting on Harden & Ty was something I never trusted.

    Cyberx's rep is sterling. A few trolls tried to turn against this board, but I'm grateful that he sticks around and continue to tell us what he can.

    cyberx is the only really legit insider in my opinion.

    Time and time again he shows he's ahead of the curve and has been proven right time and time again.
