It's time you House haters sit down and admit, House should've gotten big minutes from us, despite your dumb "sample size" argument. Shoving Gary Clark into a game that he has no business playing in as a last ditch attempt to stay in the game is a baffling embarrassment for Morey and the front office. 7 Games left in reg. season, House should start or at least get big minutes. I can tell from Harden's body language, this guy is worth the PT. I also say Hartenstein should get minutes early on if Nene or Faried ain't on the court. That was also embarrassing.
What’s the point of being small if you’re slower than your counterparts. You would think with the three guards and tweener we would be quicker on the court but I haven’t seen a speed advantage yet. It reminds me of the jvg Rockets. Just always slower than our opponents. That’s why we suck at fast breaks
D'Antoni reverted to his comfort situation by going small when things were tough in the early part of the year. Can win in the regular season going small...but good playoff teams will scheme against it. Bucks are a bad matchup for Rockets. I believe their team size is 6'10" average. And faster than us when viewing Harden/CP3/Eric Gordon slowness getting back on defense. Rebounds leading to easy fast break points.
Faried was out. Nene too old to play against a transition team like Bucks and can't alley-oop either.
I actually agree with this now. As long as House doesn't get scared of the moment, he should be the starting 3. Faried is a great backup to PJ/Capela, but we are still really lacking another rim protecting 4/5. But our best lineup would be House at the starting 3 and Gordon playing off of whichever of James or Paul is on the floor with the bench unit.
Yes *Faried and GGreen we're out. They help out with athleticism, but I would feel better about our chances with one or two more athletic SF"s. Real SF's around 6'7" that can leap above the rim, but are stronger than GG We can bail on offensive rebounding and get back on defense (3 men back) and force more of the half court game and decrease fast break points in the playoffs....but our FG% will need to almost be spot on if we are going to be out rebounded by the bigger teams and out fast broken. Their length will hamper our 3-point shooting. Length and speed tend to do that. P.S. don't sell Brook Lopez short. You almost have to play Nene against Brook. Good post up game and maybe too strong for Capela to contain.
House is system player but he is great at it. Would hate it if he went to spurs, pop would do beast out of him
He is much better than just a system player, he does fit our system, but he can do a lot more - but he is happy to play his role, but he is going to be a really good starter in this league for a long time. DD
