Jarrett Allen, the Rocket who isn't

Not only blind but deaf and dumb too.

 

Coaching matters.

Wood is better than LMA right now while JA is better than Claxton.

Not even debatable.

Yet other coaches/teams can play 2 even THREE bigs while the Rockets absolutely suffer when they try.

 

Your ignorance is at cosmic levels.

Get help.

 

delete.

 

Using this logic CP3 is not a PG either since Harden has had more success as a PG than CP3.

Do you hear yourself?

 

You don't think Harden's a point guard? That's a real interesting take. Here's an interesting statistic that I'd say contradicts your view very nicely:

Players in the last 10 years to average over 10 assists per game in a season:

Russel Westbrook x 4
LeBron James (the year he played PG)
James Harden x2
John Wall x3
Chris Paul x3
Rajon Rondo x4
Steve Nash

This is the list of players in the last decade to average over 11 assists a game over a season:
Russel Westbrook
James Harden
Rajon Rondo x3

Looks like a pretty elite list of point guards to me. To claim Harden isn't a PG and hasn't been for the latter part of his career is straight up nonsense at this point. Not only is he a PG, he's one of the absolute elite PG in the last 10 years, and that's a fact.

 

Lol, yeah double big lineups with Harden at peak powers are good! Coaching matters. Though honestly watching the last 3 nets games they were better with just Claxton and Harden. LMA and Durant were back tonight and the offense wasn't as sharp.

Who gives a **** about Wood honestly.

Did you watch the Rockets during peak Harden? He made threatening NBA players out of 54 year old Nene, China League version Kenneth Faried, took Austin Rivers and Gerald Green off the couch etc

That wasn't Dantony, except that he was doing the most critical thing an NBA coach actually does which is get the hell out of the way

 

So you are comparing JBB of Cavs to D'Antoni and/or Nash?

And that is just tip of iceberg.

Carlisle is doing it with Pacers now and last season with Mavs.

Lakers rode 2 bigs plus to a championship.

Bucks, Knicks and Grizz also start 2 bigs.

 

^Lol this post is amazing^

didnt jarrett allen go to texas

he is beasting for the cavs

 

Doesn't make sense to commit long term money to a team with no foundation.

 

Nets lose Harden and lost him for the guy replacing him in the All Star game. Tragic circle of events.

 

None more tragic than Houston

That Bucks pick will be great, I'm sure

 

I wish we could ban all bumps of this thread. My heart cannot take it.

 

But Tillman didn't have to pay Jarrett Allen so he is still happy with the trade.

 

Still think this is a miss
I think Allen at C with Wood at PF would be better

Rocket River

 

I think the evidence is clear now that value and talent weren't the main perogatives of that trade.

 

We signed Theis and Nwaba to like 15 mill per in the offseason

Allen's salary? 20 mill per

 

The Allstar who is.
