Everything is wrong, it's just a LACK of effect. I mean it's all around the court too. Everyone getting blown by, teams just walking around in the paint.
I'm trying to think of a team that would actually want Howard or Smith. How many teams could actually trade for Dwight and his massive contract, and give anything of value in return? Dwight may be almost untradeable.
Think the Rockets are just going through a bad stretch and some of yall are overreacting. Need to insert DMo into the starting lineup and let Smith come off the bench.
Any reason why we shouldn't? I don't listen to him on TV a lot, but he seemed spot on with that comment. There's a lot of reaching, gambling, and rushing to take charges that aren't there. They also help when it's not necessary.
Previous 8 games (MIL,MEM,MIN,PHO,GSW,SAC,DEN,DEN) 7-1 record OffRtg DefRtg NetRtg 104.8 99.6 +5.1 Last 8 games (NOP,ATL,POR,MEM,SAS,WAS,CHA,NOP) 3-5 record OffRtg DefRtg NetRtg 100.1 103.0 -2.8 POR,ATL,SAS and WAS in top Much tougher schedule in the last 8 games and a big offensive dropoff(-4.7). Defense also is off(+3.4), but not as bad as the offensive drop.
Hilarious how people think Beverley is a major problem. He hasn't had a great stretch, but hardly the most concerning part of the team.
Not sure where I said he was the most concerning part. But he has been gambling a lot lately and tried taking about 3-4 charges that just weren't there in the Wizards game. Maybe it's not fair, but when he and Ariza have nothing going offensively, mistakes on the defensive end become way more glaring to me.
Is it just me , or are you getting that same vibe from him that T-Mac gave off the season he announced his microfracture surgery?
Oh, I didn't think that's what you were saying. My mistake if it came off that way. But yeah, Beverley needs to get his shot back, no doubt about it. Right now we have zero shooters around Harden which is a huge problem. I've pretty much accepted Ariza is going to be a scrub this year offensively, so hopefully Beverley can get back to that 37-40% range.
The whole team needs to stop jacking threes...once it starts looking like a competition between them, it's time to reel it back. And beverley now has gone 7 straight games without a free throw attempt.
