    I remember coach saying something to the effect of, he will not play Pablo and KJ because we cannot afford possessions when playoff position is at stake. I would like to flip that question. I think it is obvious we are better with Pablo and Terry splitting at the point, and I am sure quite a few others share this view. Given the play of Bev vs the play of the two ole timers, how long can we keep giving up possessions and potentially playoff position, hoping Bev comes back to form?

    Nothing will emphasize how pathetic a coach we have more - than if Prigs isn't playing at least 24 minutes in Playoff games.

    He does everything this Rockets' team needs offensively.

    Rockets are pathetic at holding on to the ball most of the time.

    Rockets desperately need 3 point shooting.

    Prigioni more than excels in both of those facets.

    And he creates easy baskets naturally on the P'n'R - not matter who the roller is. It is a thing of beauty. :eek:

    He said that when they first came here. they had no practice time. You can tell McHale wants to play Pablo when he is playing him with bev.

    I think McHale will change his mind. Pablo is by far the best distributor on this team.

    Prigs just makes good decisions with the ball. Doesn't get over zealous and cough it up in crucial moments. Doesn't play out of control only to dangerously toss it to someone

    Harden is still the best playmaker which includes his ability to create open looks for teammates.

    Best playmaker, but not the best distributor.

    He blows at drawing a charge.

    I would like to see a blowout W so McDaniels can get some PT. Prigioni should be getting PT once the playoffs get going.

    hpefully he changes his mind cuz we need more from the pg position and priggs is the only real pg on the rockets. just play him 15-20mpg. maybe even 10-15mpg with harden's playmaking and when dwight is back.

    What was the question he laughed off and made him leave the interview?
