    i respect your opinnion, but i actually like schroedor. He's the perfect buy low guy for our team. i really don't understand the hate for him. i understand he over valued himself, but he's still a good player. He's selfish? perhaps he learned his lesson. I don't see why he doesn't fit our timeline at 28. Didn't we sign ariza and tucker around that age? I've heard you say that's he's a bad defender, but is he really that bad? He played in that three guard line up with the thunder -- i get it, it was with paul -- but he still had to guard our small forwards. I feel he's an above average defender. Isn't KPJ a thug too? what's the difference? at any rate, signing him to a cheap three year deal would be good for us. I'm at least willing to watch this season and see how he does.

    maybe because he is an older more expensive version of 3 of your prospects? Never known for making anyone around him better?
    We need people to help our top prospects. I definitely don't see how this helps. Because I see the logic behind your points, just can't make it fit the Rockets roster and most recent investments.

    i think another reason we are playing him is an attempt to lowball KPJ on his next contract. If schroeder takes minutes out of KPJ's point guard duties, while moving KPJ to the 2, it helps in negotiations on his next contract. If we keep playing KPJ starter minutes while starting at point, he's going to ask for loads of money. KPJ isn't a point guard. I'm not saying that schroeder is the best one, but it's clear that KPJ is a 2. Yes, he can start at point on a bad team, but on a contender, playing against a great defense, his handles aren't good enough, he picks up his dribble way too much in the half court and traps himself.

    He can shoot whenever he likes......you do know that Giddy is a ball dominant Point guard right?

    Are you saying that Green should be the PG, over KPJ and his 8 assists and ZERO turnovers?

    Just want to be clear here, who is taking away the shots from Green? He has plenty of opportunities to score.

    He really doesn't. Hence why he's like 6th on the team in touches. This offense is a cluster **** for everyone especially the rooks in Green and Sengun.
