    I had to laugh the other day one of the announcers said something about NeNe has to be happy to be in Houston after playing so many years in Washington because James can get him the ball for so many easy opportunities...I was like ... drr did y'all forget John Wall?!

    Supposedly they are resting Wall on back to backs, but he didn't play against Orlando Sunday, so we should expect him tonight.

    Fans: We want less Corey Brewer! Less! As in little to no playing time!
    Mike: Great to hear! We're not only gonna play him more, we're gonna insert him into the starting lineup.

    Corey Brewer is fascinating. I can't even get mad anymore. He clearly just has an unfathomable capability to convince coaches he's good.

    This is actually a good defensive move. Take scoring pressure off Brew, so all he has to do is defend and knock down open three and then Gordon can go off with the bench mob and make Ennis look competent. I would've went with KJ but I don't watch these guys practice everyday

    At least we know D'Antonio recognizes that elite PG's have been blowing us away. However, Brewer is not the answer. There is no answer. But I agree with others that McDaniel's length would at least potentially bother Wall though I doubt it.

    All said, the Wizards are 1-4. What are we afraid of. Even when Wall has 10+ they can barely break 100 points. Let's just outscore their backcourt and walk away with the win.

    And as for Brewer, he has convinced an irish, italian, and black coach to give him MORE minutes in the face of an analytic team. We must give in and bow to the King.

    Like the brewer move. Gordon is better suited for 2nd unit as plenty of guys here have been saying. As long as it´s a defensive improvement is a good change, with the way Harden has been assisting all Brewer need to do is stand in a corner.

    I support keeping KJ on the 2nd unit,but I would like to give him more minutes, he is scoring regularly

    Remember Beverley is our SG after the 15th

    The Rockets will continue to struggle against the leagues best PGs even when Bev comes back. EVERY TEAM struggles against the leagues top PGs, no one stops them but themselves. Bev wasn't a lock down defender last year, and he won't be coming back from a knee scope. I predict Brewer will get demolished by this dude going for every steal possible while our defense breaks down trying to cover for him. And he will get maybe 1 or 2 steals from it, while giving up several scoring possessions because of it, and MDA will say he did a great job. The NUDE photos of ALL COACHES is real!

    And do what? Hit 1 out of every 4 corner 3 pointers? I can do that and would do it for $1,000,000 only. Save the Rockets some money.

    Bro, how and why is Brewer getting all these minutes man smh? I don't like the move because Eric Gordon is at his best when he plays with Harden. Every time I see Eric in the second group I cringe. Oh well, I guess we shall see what happens tonight.

    With the Spurs coming up twice, I recommend to the Rockets to win this game.

    Smart move by MDA. Brewer will foul out before halftime!

    I told you Bev will be starting when he comes back. You can't start a lineup against Beal and Wall that has two of the worst defenders on the team and expect to stop them.

    I will be writing in Corey Brewer tomorrow when I go vote. He clearly has what it takes to lead this country. :eek:
