Again, and the last time. Both, hear that both Lin and Parsons are out. You didn't have a time with Parsons and Lin or Parsons and Harden out, you had Lin and Parsons in with Harden out. That's a big difference having 2 core guys out vs. one.
yea, I mean he's All Defense 1st team!! Back in the BIG 12!!! Stop with these excuses, superstars dont get stopped by PJ Tucker. If Batum or Gordon Hayward get stopped by Tucker, then fine, but you're supposed to be one of the top 3 SG's in the league.
What could McHale really do with so many hurt players. I say he should of let Jones play more the last 2 games if u really want him 2 be the starter or is this gonna b the Asik trade
Are you high? 4/10 is 40% shooting. 12 points on 10 shots is REALLY far from being efficient. 12 and 4 wouldn't even make you a starting PG on most NBA teams. The ONLY reason Bev is starting is to cover up for Harden's defensive deficiencies. 19 points on 11 shots and 20 points on 14 shots are VERY efficient. That is SO far from "keeping them in check" that it's hilarious. Do you realize that Chris Paul averages 18.9 ppg? Beverley "checked" them SO much that they only scored like CP3. Seriously, you're welcome to come back to earth. Beverley has his strengths but being a classic or combo PG isn't one of them. He's a defensive guard that can sometimes sink a bucket. And that's about it. Patrick Beverley 2013/14 - 9.4 PPG, 2.4 APG, 30.9 MPG Beverley is a starting PG on the Rockets and the Heat and that's about it. Most every other team in the NBA has a PG that scores and facilitates.
You are dense if you don't understand. Whether or not what your saying is even true, the fact is, this team has played lethargically without parsons in the line up the last two games. That's a fact. Whatever non sense you are spewing is irrelevant.
Uhhh u r delusional Bev has been exposed he is a good hustle player.. that's it they shut down Harden scoring so who on the starters will score WHO? especially if Parsons and LIn are out NOT BEVERLEY
It may not always be that way, but if one is honest, the Rockets have been playing better team basketball without Harden.
I want to blame it on injuries too, but the Rockets were able to defeat teams last year with a starting line up of Asik, Lin, Garcia, Smith, and Anderson when they had to. Something more than injuries is up, and I am starting to get concerned.
I like him as a whole but he is not playing smart with his talent and ability. He should embrace team ball and develope some mid-range game or something. Right now he seems like taking pleasure in hitting step back threes and finishing his lay ups in traffic. These are high degree of difficulty plays. It is great he can make them and make them in the crunch sometimes, but it is starting to look that's all his doing.
They need to switch james to the three spot or get him to commit to play better D.The only time we looked good tonight was when Brooks was running the show.
