    lol, so true. You can't find much support for any players on clutchfans, almost about every player is mocked for this or that.

    If we were winning they'd all be overvalued like crazy. I think as a whole CF's(myself included) are still upset about the lack of progress last season.

    I picked KMart. I'm not comparing to Ray Allen, but he has some characteristics of Allen like FTs and 3 PT FGs. CLee is a better defender, but his defense isn't what I call a stopper. If pay is the same I take KMart, but if CLee is kept to get another player, CLee>KMart. Player for player, I rather have someone who can keep us in the game with FTs and who can extend the lead with 3s. We definitely don't need to fill this position this offseason, most likely subtracting 1 of them.

    Lee has character.. He is very professional and has a good image off the court. Martin has estrogen.. He is a nobody and has no self image or defense.

    OP asks a question of value between Clee and Kmart, people post their answers and reasons, and this posts suggests that viewpoints contrary to your own come from a place of irrationality. I guess the only acceptable response to the OP's question is one that has the same viewpoint as yours. Sound about right for clutchfans?

    Would have been fine if you just left it at your reasons for why KMart had a less than average year....

    A 100% healthy and motivated Kevin Martin without a mutha effin doubt! Courtney Lee needs to know his place and come off that bench. Nuff Said!

    Keep both of them, trade Kevin when his stock goes up.

    When's that going to be? I think those days of it going up are gone. It's basically what it is, or will go down (IMO).

    you know, just because some of yall's opinion isn't the popular opinion around here doesn't mean you've got to be a chode about about it. i don't think anyone on this board (well, maybe a couple) would argue against that k-mart is the better player of the two, but that is NOT in debate right now. what IS in debate is who do you think would fit better on this team?

    Lee was a good starter back in Orlando. He plays better as a role player and the ball not always in his hand to score. I think he'll do better next season as a starter. Plus, I wanna get rid of martin and scola's contracts and the crappy defense they play.

    If not looking at the roster, I would pick Martin any day over Lee.

    Considering our roster, I do not think we can strive with 3 players playing defense (Scola) so with that choice I have to pick Lee.

    Really depends on who else we get. I like Lee better as a player, not great at anything, but a good player.

    Keep Martin if you have an inside player that can throw it back out for 3s.

    Not really check out the Houston Texans Message Board. I am a member of several boards and I haven't seen much more player butchering then on here. I think with injuries of Yao, Lowry, and Martin (arguably their 3 best players) the Rockets have done pretty well. It could be a lot worse.

    Don't ever underestimate the contract year season. Every NBA player understands what it means. It can make players like Mike James look like John Wall.

    Martin's value will go up this season. The Rockets know he is not the answer for this team, so they will play him and they will try to get the most they can for him.

    Martin is a better offensive player, but I prefer Lee's defensive strengths and youth.

    I think we could ship Martin off to a contender in the East and get at least a pick or two back so there is that as well.

    Valid point. I stand corrected.
