I love our beloved rockets as the next Clutchfan. I Scola, Martin and Lowry. But with Lowry and Martin injuried... Scola still being consistent but not getting any younger... Martin having a horrible season and was never a great defender. What do we do with those 3 players? Are main 3 guys. Are longest 3 tendered players. Am I the only Clutchfan who see Lowry Scola and Martin as trade chips? Dragic is just as good as Lowry in my opinion. Dragic is a great penetrator, good passer, and a decent defender. Lee is starting to blossom and really has been coming into a good player. Parsons is becoming a fantastic all around player. Defender, offensive game. Parsons is only a rookie he will only get better. Patterson is playing less minutes and his stats are close to Scola's stats. I think we need to move Scola, Lowry, and Martin. Hurts to think or say it. I feel like I'm cheating my team. But I honestly want to give Dragic, Lee, Parsons, and Patterson. Starting rolls or more playing time.m Would like to know your thoughts fellow clutchfans. Am I wrong for thinking this? Am I stupid or are y'all seeing what I am seeing. Just wondering...
Idk if you're saying Lowry is old, but he and Goran are the same age. Lowry is older than him by about 2 months.
Scola is old. I did not look at other threads but I see the topic that I was trying to covey on numerous threads. Basically Scola, Martin, and lowry need to go. Love them, good players but with the emergence of Dragic, parsons, patterson and lee. I feel we need to go with those guys and trade Lowry, Scola, and Martin. That or Scola and Martin need to come of the bench. The flow of the game is completely different with certain personel
I have wanted to trade Martin and Scola for quite some time now. I think we have waited a little too long actually and now both of their values have taken a hit. They were both great for an offensively minded coach like Adelman, but I don't think they work that well in Mchale's system. Especially KMart. If we could package them together with a young piece or a draft pick to get a young SG on the rise or a center that has a better overall game than Dalembert I would jump for joy.
Courtney Lee 26, Goran 25, Patterson 23. These guys aren't that young, and they aren't going to get that much better. If we move Scola, Lowry, or Martin it should be to bring in better players, not so are bench players can start.
No, they reach a plateau at about 25 which lasts until about 32. Players improve slightly over that period. They don't go from being Courtney Lee to being Joe Johnson or James Harden.
I guess i somewhat agree. KMart 100% needs to be shipped out this offseason. Letting scola would be hard to do because he's been the heart and soul of this team for awhile but it would help us out in the future. Now Lowry decision is the hardest one. With goran playing out of his mind and showing he can be a really good starter you almost have to see what you can get for Klow.On the other hand though, He's a ducking beast and our mvp the last 2 years. Really tough decision this offseason for morey
