Chuck almost won the title that year. Rodman went so hard for the title though, and ended up winning. Omer you surpassed my expectations, and have shown that "projects" that play hard will beat out pure talent every day. Omer is a work horse.
I remember those possessions today where Asik had to guard Jermaine in the post, literally no one else could grab a rebound..
Omer's has actually been the best rebounder in the league this year. He's got a higher rebounding percentage than everyone else, including Dwight Howard. The only reason Howard and Vucevic are ahead of him is that they get more minutes. Per minute, Asik is the best rebounder when he's on the court. http://stats.nba.com/?GameScope=Season&PlayerOrTeam=Player&StatCategory=Rebounds
Who came up with the term HOF(and not in reference to the hall of fame) anyway? I don't think I've seen a single poster who signed up here and talks about how he came because of Harden.
Response I do agree that Rockets can be over 50% team either without Lin or Harden or Parsons (without one of them), but I do not think Rockets will be over 50% team without Omer. I think his offensive skills will continue to improve. I would not bring in Dwight Howard because Rockets have Omer who's healthy, doesn't complain and is improving.
I find the coaches ride Omer really hard. Basically they ask him to do everything. He has to defend the paint, defend the PnR, rebound, outlet pass, set screens, offensive rebound. He's like the guy who when doing a group project gets piled on all the work everyone else is too lazy to do. He's also the reason why the Rockets could get away with so many sub-par PFs and using Delfino/Parsons at PF.
they actually exists, from Turkey mind you, I remember one poster name is like omerthelover or something like that. And OOF sounds cool.
Man I love Omer! now it looks like he might be developing a 12 footer too. FT shooting is getting better. If he would only dunk the ball more. it's going to suck when we trade him and Beverly....
Lets just start calling the Big Turk... "The Gobbler" rebound criminal at large. :grin::grin::grin: zzpot
you write great dude.. It read to me like I was hearing the words just before a prize fight!!.. Like Mike Tyson was about to Kick a Huge guy ass live on free TV. zzpot
