You don't even know what you are talking about. Hibbert is fighting with Howard for DPOY, Lance Stephenson had a triple double and a near triple double this season. David West has been playing minimal minutes because the Pacers haven't had the need to play him heavy minutes. Pacers are defensive oriented, Rockets are offensive oriented, so why are you comparing players in terms of offense?
Because you posted about taking the champs to 7 games. Just saying, the reason they took them to 7 games was because Hibbert abused Bosh and because Wade sucked that series. Had nothing to do with Paul's defense on LeBron considering LeBron probably performed best in that series than any other.
George took 23 shots to score 27 points today... Very "Melo Type" performance... If Harden takes 17 shots people around here call him a ball hog... Lol..
i already showed you the stats. PAcers for being defensively oriented still take more shots per game than the Rockets! Freaking Jordan Crawford had a triple double the other day...Lance Stephenson got drafted in the 2nd round!! And he only got picked because of his talent!!
If you seriously think Harden is better than George right now, you should question your basketball IQ.
Paul George drops 28 in game 6 to force a game 7 and you're saying it was all Roy Hibbert. When the game was tight late who took the shot? They went to George. Wade sucked in that series?2 bad games out of 7, but it was far from sucking.
Well when you're constantly waving people off, and do nothing at the other end and most importantly, still lose the game, what do you expect? Go out and win and nobody cares.
Why should people have to question their IQ if their opinion different from yours...??? Who da F is you...!!!! Are you PG's mom...??? Lol... I question people's IQ if they think it was worth paying Howard $21 million a year when we already had Asik but I just don't say it out loud cuz it's rude...
What are you talking about? The Rockets are one of the highest in the league in pace, and Pacers one of the lowest. And Pacers do not take more shots per game than the Rockets. You are just making things up now. By the way, Lance Stephenson actually had two triple doubles and another near triple double. But I guess he is not talented at all right?
The Pacers believe he is that guy, they gave him a nice contract extension and they are putting the ball in his hands more often this season. We shall see if he can be that main man for the Pacers.
Never mind, adjusted for games played Pacers take two more FGs per game. But Rockets still play at a much faster pace than pacers.
Check the stats son....Pacers, 18 games 1,447 shots taken. Rockets 18 games, 1,395 shots taken. Stephenson certainly has talent, but when you're talking starter, he's an average nba starter.
Rockets take less FG because they go to the free throw line more. You should be looking at possessions instead because FG is meaningless in this context.
The question is, do the Pacers have the talent for people to expect a 17-1 record....no! Like the Spurs, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. When it comes to that, Harden doesnt fit well into that formula. It's clear he's not as hard a worker as George. Why does hit foot hurt? Maybe cause it's carry excess weight. I'm not saying you need a 6 pack, but it's clear he's not a gym rat or in the weight room all that much. If he is, why doesnt his body show it? He's becoming the SG version of Blake Griffin. Tremendous talent, big numbers, but no leadership, not the alpha dog to lead the team, but would make a great sidekick.
I don't know why I bothered in the first place when your agenda is so evident. Go back to supporting the Knicks, or what's left of it.
Win Shares for last season 1. Lebron James 2. Kevin Durant 3. Chris Paul 4. James Harden 5. Rusell Westbrook So he's doing just that and in a tougher conference. This is quite frankly inane. You don't know how hard he works and looking at his body type is no proof of laziness. According to this logic Kevin Durant does not hit the gym or work as hard either
Sickens me that a topic about another team's player is one of the most heavily talked about items in the GARM. Every damn day I have to look at this damn topic because it is always inching near the top. I've been hoping it would just disappear, but I guess we'll keep it alive all year right? After each player has a good or bad game, we'll post in here. Well let me just say that I don't give a **** about Paul George or any other player not wearing Rockets Red. They're all dead to me. Howard or Roy Hibbert next up? Smh...Go Rockets... /rant
