Everyone was to blame for last year's debacle. Dwight, Harden, McFail, Lawson, Thornton, JB, I can go on and on. Last year was a mess it wasn't all on Dwight.
My thoughts exactly and I justify this because if Howard decided to be a PnR player, we would have had an offensive set we could depend on. All the other pieces fall in place if we know what we're doing on offense.
Still waiting for Jonathan Feigen's new Chron article : The best Rockets free agent signing that never happened - the amazing Bazemore story.
I just imagine Dwight in the Capela role and I shake my head. Dwight was in the absolute perfect place here in Houston for his skill set; but he let people, who have little to do with the Rockets, get in his head. I'm happy Atlanta is struggling... I'm a terrible person... unlike.
Dwight indeed had the perfect place here, if he would have just committed to it. A pick and roll Howard is the scariest thing when you have a Harden along with you. They could've killed the league and beaten the Warriors in 2015, I have no doubt.
Dwight let that ship sail long before Houston. Also glad ATL is losing. How the hell did they handle us so easily?
Rockets played like crap. If we played them today the way we are playing right now,we will demolish them.
Atlanta 13 wins 14 losses and has made them borderline pathetic. Yeah bad. Millsap is struggling playing with him. Dwight is a selfish SOB. Pretty much all of his ex teammates say the same.
I think the article got it right, they changed their offensive identity too much. Losing Teague hurts their depth, Dwight's style hurts ball movement, and everyone else has regressed. Hawks didnt need defensive help they needed offensive help. They have bad 3 point shooting, bad bench and turn the ball over too much. Bazemore & Sefalosha are D without the 3's, Bazemore cant hit anything. NONE of their guards can defend Shroeder included, and their backup guards are bricklayers. Hawks were already regressing last year, and all they did this year was replace Horford with Dwight and lose Teague without replacing the depth. Millsap is actually putting up his same stat line he always does. Dwight is actually a career low in shot attempts and getting assisted on more shots. I dont think its all some "Dwightmare" thing like before
What did Dwight fans expect???? Look at how a the teams that feature bigs as there best player are doing? Twolves? Pels? Sac? Atl? They all have somthing in common.... they have losing records. And dwights not as good as those guys and prob hasn'more talent around him. (wolves in a better place though) If a big guy isn't playing with a dynamic guard/wing your now winning or going very far. No matter if you have all time talent of KAT and Brow. Those guys more than most need to play with a harden Lebron or curry. Even I guy like deanglo russlel would do wonders for Anthony Davis.
Good job, Hawks!!! Now go back to your way of things. 114-112 W over the SPURS!!!! Rockets on 1.5 games back from 2nd seed now!
