    ugh--what is it with this franchise and the significant injuries at the worst times?





    *i will add, no way 15 months ago I would've thought of Bev out being significant. but he deserves all the credit for his offensive game improving and elite ball defending.

    Harden/Hamilton starting backcourt.

    Stars are made in situations like this. What if a player comes up from the D League and helps the Rockets advance in the playoff?

    Also, i thought anbody we signed this far in the season wouldn't be eligible for playoffs? Is there an exception if a injury accurs?

    PG is the one position 100% North American / Euro certified. It's just a tough position to be a full blown master at.

    I think we should be after another PG not to replace Cannan, but more so as insurance. I mean $hit what happens if Jlin goes out?(had few injuries) or Canaan himself. We are screwed.

    Lol if i recall correctly rudy hates the nba, refused to play while in contract for a little bit.

    In a really old video of dmo, 2 years before he was drafted, a reporter asked dmo if he's talked to nba player about coming to the nba from euro leagues and Dmo answere Rudy. The reporter then asked what rudy said an dmo responded something like "not things i can say on camera, not good things"

    The Rockets in the playoffs will play both Lin and Harden 40+ minutes a night. There are no back to backs. Fill in with Garcia and Canaan. Less than 18 minutes a night between them.

    They can play in the playoffs if they haven't played for another team already.

    It was an issue over playing time/role. He'd love his time here.

    Everyone on the bench is afraid to shoot because they can't hit their shots but the Rockets really need someone on the wing to step up. Delfino was given the green light to jack up shots to his heart's content. Rudy with the same freedom would be an upgrade.
