Sources: Dwight isn't "thrilled" with PG situation.

Just trade Lin already. That will make everybody happy... Lin, Beverly, his teammates, Rockets organization, LOFs, LOHs,... wow....one action that makes everybody happy. LOL.

 

based on everything thats been said they were meant to switch

Lin on Blake
Bev on Nash
Dwight on Gasol

Nash Screens Lin, Bev is meant to go Blake, Gasol screens Bev, Dwight is meant to close on Blake, but hes late


GAMEWINNNAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
meanwhile im punching holes in the library computer

 

what player or coach would complain about a BACKUP PG with
16 pts on 5-8 FG
1-2 3pt 50 %
2 blocks
3 stls
4 assists
must be Harden or Beverley

 

Cause all those people hate him? It wasn't even his fault we lost tonight.

 

Well said. That means Dwight is complaining to McHale that he doesn't want Harden to hold onto the ball all the time and would like to be able to develop chemistry with his partner in Dream's Deadly Combo. Or maybe Dwight is able to notice that Bev and TT don't fit very well and is complaining to McHale.

 

Is there a quote or something?

Our PG by game design is technically Harden...

 

Beverly will be happy coz he gets to be permanent starter. The Rockets organization and his teammates will be happy coz he gets paid too much and obviously Rockets can't pay everybody.

But seriously, I think Bev is sort of on a trial period and he's got to show he's capable of being a permanent starter before they ship Lin and his contract out. Until then, Lin is staying put. Unless they can trade him for another PG. But which PG out there are actually available? Jameer? That seems like the only guy who's available but he's not an upgrade at all it seems.

 

Nah, most of the people complaining here are old timers, not the the 2012-2013 posters.

Neither of the PGs really have the ball in their hands.

 

Beverley hates Jeremy now?

 

I care about what makes the Rockets better. If you can find me an AVAILABLE pg better than Lin then make the trade. Don't trade him unnecessarily just because it divides fans.

 

A couple of things Coach Sampson has said often enough. 1. The Rockets coaches want players to execute defense they way they want it to be played 2. Stop going under screens

 

Bev and Lin hardly even get to run plays. 80% of the time they just bring the ball up court and then run to the corners. They are playing the pg position put technically Harden is really the one in the role of pg. Bev and Lin are both playing off ball.

 

PG is not the problem, Lin or Bev or frigging Jameer Nelson, wont make much diff.
The 2 stars are, 9/24 and 5/16, my god, this is your team, u da man, when you shoot like that, you got the balls to blame other? what happens to franchise players setting the tone or leading by example?
When we had Tmac and yao, we had bunch of scrubs surrounding them.
Now we have good role players around, one star is turning into a poor man tmac, less talent, more selfish, worse attitude, and the other one started blaming game 6 games into the season.
Imagine if we had Lin/Bev/Asik/CP/Cisco/Casspi around tmac and yao...

 

I am glad finally he speak it out. A leader should take responsibility to point it out and call on the team to fix it. He is the max contract guy now, when the other max contract play the ball wrong way, you are the only one in the team that can restrain him.

 

Dwight is not happy with PGs situation. Lin has been singled out by angry teammates and coaches. It's a superstar league, if Howard and Harden say they don't want to play with Lin, he's gone. He's already on the bench, seems like a potential trade could be a matter of when if the players don't start gelling soon.

 

Is Dwight mad at Harden?

 

Yes for the starters. Harden got 11 assists during preseason game Beverley disappeared. Harden not Bev is the PG for the starters then Bev and Lin trade when Harden is off the floor with Lin playing the 2. The most effective lineup 2nite was the closing lineup Bev, Lin, Dwight and Harden 2gether is what got us the lead but in the 2nd half Harden refused to pass Lin the ball or pass the ball at all

 

I think he is the one in the team selling "start Beverley he is the better defender thing" too.
like it or not, we have a wrong defensive coach, our defense is terrible.
