    He is turning into scrap metal until he finds his confidence again.

    This seems like a good explanation to where his shot went. Someone who has been as consistently productive/accurate for as long as he has doesn't just lose it like that.

    I know he's been awful but a healthy Kmart is still an asset.

    What's with the "tea" references on the first page of this thread?

    Is this a new meme?

    People on the forum are at times illogical to the point of irrationality. Saying that the team would be better off without its leading scorer is just nuts. And Martin's injury means that he will be around next year because it will devalue his worth on the trade market. From now on I am just going to assume that many of you understand almost nothing about basketball. You all know who you are.

    To further elucidate on the topic it seems many of you don't have any understanding of the NBA rotation. Martin would be just fine sandwiched between Lowry and Parsons. He will make mistakes but if you have great defensive players surrounding him he would be just fine. That is the reason that Martin/ Bud/ Scola never worked. Substitute Parsons for Bud and the rotation holds it own easily with Lowry and Calembert at the 1 and 5.

    If you think that going into a playoff series with either Martin or Lowry is a good thing you should be reaching for your anti-psychotics.

    Whenever he struggles, he gets hurt and checks out. Wen he's healthy, we never hear about or see him sucking hardly. So I guess the shoulder hurt more on the road than at home?

    It's insane to celebrate the injury of any of your players, let alone your leading scorer. Just insane. smh

    I called for Martin to be dumped before he landed in houston! :p

    We're just not much better with him in the lineup. It's sad but...

    $12M in cap space > Kevin Martin
