    Oh absolutely not... nothin like that at all but I’m just citing that there is some awkwardness to his game that’s just not clicking.... either he’s just a step slow to get to the right places or he’s too heavy or something..... but somethings off. I can’t pin it down but it’s something.....

    By all accounts he should be flourishing but he just ain’t...... I mean even brewer had a nice run with James..... idk

    I watched the game intently... but can't remember now.

    Why was Faried out down the stretch? I feel like they built the lead with him in? He was +8 on the game. I know Robinson was in for the Knicks for a while so it wasn't because they went small. I think it was because MDA wanted to go small... but it didn't seem to be working.

    I think tonight was a good example of what Faried can provide. Bear in mind ultimately he'll be a 20 minute bench guy and is still getting his sea legs a bit...

    Looks like he was subbed out with 8:52 left and didn't get back in the game. The Rockets were up 92-86... they were losing a lead at that point, but that was without Harden in there for 3 minutes of gameplay... not sure Faried had anything to do with that...

    I honestly think Faried is out b/c his defense pretty shtty especially in crunch time.

    Hmmm, I think we were getting good looks to be honest just missing. Our defense was really good with the small lineup(dont have the numbers so could be wrong) also, I think Faried helped start that knicks run when Harden went to the bench.
