rondo averaging 15 and 9 in 4 games this month...on 66% shooting. if a deal is done to bring in rondo revolving around parsons, i have to imagine morey is working on another deal to get rid of lin or asik to fill in at SF.
Why would we ever trade for Rose.... No one has any idea if he will ever get back to how he was. I would much rather have Rondo over Rose atm
Ah, so he just woke up one morning during his 8th NBA season knowing how to shoot? I think it's MUCH more likely that he is just having a fluke hot streak.
Oh please! You guys seem to forget he won that one ring in 2007-2008 when he was 21. He was the 4th banana behind Garnett, Pierce and Allen playing the 4th most minutes during the season & playoffs. He was their Lin, Beverley or Jones(depending on how you want to rank them on our team.)
This is what I hate, my sleeping pattern for the last 3 days has been houston time, I have been sleeping during the day and then staying up all night hoping for something
Favors has been having hip issues for a while so not a surprise, he was ify to play coming into this game
Please tell me how many injuries that D.Rose has suffered in his knees and legs over the past two years? Also how many games he played? Oh yeah, doesn't Rose game entirely consisted on his explosive athleticism?
Honestly I wouldn't take Rose, I think the Rockets have had to deal with enough injured superstars already.
exactly, I mean I have been frustrated with players who look like they dont want to improve but some do get better, so I wont knock them as long as they know their flaws.
Derrick Rose & Rondo are nothing alike. Derrick Rose has proven himself to be an elite scorer with pretty good assist numbers to boot. Rondo has never averaged greater than 13.7 PPG in his career.
And he also replied back stating that all of a sudden he woke up with a 3 point shot.... yeah the same way Jason Richardson woke up with one after 7+ years in the league and the same way Jason Kidd all of a sudden discovered a 3 point shot after 10+ years. You guys are delusional with how player development works. I guess you have to be one to know one.
@ESPNSteinLine: RT @Mike_Bresnahan: Lakers closing in a deal to send Steve Blake to Golden State, according to Times sources
Random: just watched hibbert vs love in the post, love didn't even try to jump when he went for the hook shot, shot went in "love clapped his hands mad" like one of our rockets players tend to do sometimes. Good luck waiting for 2015 for that.
Richardson went from being a 35% 3 point shooter his first 6 years to being a 39% shooter after that, Kidd went from being a 33% shooter his first 10 seasons to being a 37% shooter after that.....Rondo was a 24% 3 point shooter his first 7 years. Notice how that's not the same at all?
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA 1m Steve Blake has been traded to Golden State, league source tells Yahoo Sports.
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA 2m Golden State expected to send Kent Bazemore and MarShon Brooks to the Lakers for Blake, league source tells Yahoo Sports.
Being the FIRST to find out is overrated; go to sleep, get your rest, you will find out soon enough. Doesn't look like it is going to break tonight. It may take the "pressure" of the deadline to get it done.
