I was a loyal 610 listener for many years but the format and the pesonel made a turn for the worst. I left them in July, after almost having a quadruple-bypass seizure listening to those idiots! Like Popeye said: I stands enough I can't stands no more!!! ............. ............. .............
He looked tired and a bit frustrated, not sure why. With all the double teams and triple teams on Harden and Lin, he should have positioned himself to get the ball. Over all he looked good, but he needs to move a bit more and needs to make an effort to be under the goal to draw defenders. I feel he could take a big man one on one and draw the foul, if only he could finish and draw the foul. They need use him like they use to use Olajuwon.
Did you just???.....Oh no you didn't!!! ...................... ...................... ......................
didn't realize they got the Taj deal done. Love the guy, and he's worth Scola money, but yeah, the Asik contract is so much better value. Morey really deserves a ton of credit on this.
I can't call Asik ELITE defense yet but he definitely is one of the better centers in actually being useful on both ends of the court at this time and the potential for him to get better is really interesting. Glad Morey made the move to get him, it was a very good one. I still can't think of a better nickname for him then Judge however.
This much is obvious. The guy doesn't learn; we're back to the whole Patterson/Scola nightmare until PP gets back.
His defense is top notch but i'm surprise with improvement on his offense and athleticism. When he was pnr w Lin he only need to step to throw it down. That was mcnasty
Overall, I think Asik had a solid game, but there was definitely a lot to improve upon. His help defense overall was actually very slow or nonexistant. And he fell for far too many pump fakes from the bigs that allowed them to drive past him with ease. With that said, he closed the game out with tremendous defense in the 4th quarter. Defensive rebounding looks to be an issue with this team. Marcus was rusty, and it showed, but I'm not sure if the return of Patterson will fully fix our defensive boards. I'm optimistic that once McHale starts playing the rookies a bit, we'll see Terrence Jones and Scott Machado worked into the rotation eventually. Morris and Douglas were terrible last night.
Just butt hurt over losing the Rockets to 790. The minute it was announced they began killing everything Morey or the Rockets did. Second rate hacks who hopefully will be buried by 790 and they'll be forced to make changes. Childish stuff
