The people ****ting on Sam Dekker are probably the same people who thought Parsons wouldn't be any good either. He could contribute earlier than expected, you never know.
You never know. Budinger, Parsons... McHale has shown a tendency to give playing time to certain young guys who are pigmentally similar to Larry Bird.
With the Vipers, Dekkar may be relegated to play the 3 for the majority of his minutes because he will be playing with Harrell and even Wood. But if he wants to crack the Rockets line up, Dekker will need to improve his 3 ball so he carve a niche as the stretch 4. Don't see him getting a lot of minutes at the 3 with Ariza, Brewer and KJ in front of him unless someone is injured.
This was the last thing I've seen tweeted on Jul 22nd: Spoiler <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Sam <a href="https://twitter.com/dekker">@dekker</a> hanging out at Rockets Summer Camp. <a href="http://t.co/OcMatMgixb">pic.twitter.com/OcMatMgixb</a></p>— Houston Rockets (@HoustonRockets) <a href="https://twitter.com/HoustonRockets/status/623921938977550336">July 22, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
That's such a stupid troll thing to say. If you toss out crap like that, don't expect anyone to take anything you say seriously. Bud got play time, because the Rockets' roster was thinner than Donald Trump's hair. Parsons earned his play time because he was good.
I doubt it. Team was not as good back then and the only guy really in front was budinger. I can't see him m cracking the rotation unless he really shows something.
It could indeed have been a stupid troll thing to say, even without the requisite "Carl Herrera" as the name of the poster. OR it could have been merely an attempt at humor which sailed over the head of someone because there was no smiley attached to it. Not everything posted on Clutchfans is guaranteed 100% serious, y'know. :grin: <--- LOOK!
That is just an assumption of yours.... You do not want to fall into either extreme of the spectrum Extreme homers or extreme pessimists
He's as big as Draymond Green. Physically I don't think he has a problem playing against other 4's but it will all depend on this 3 point shooting. Right now, D-Mo is the stretch 4 when he plays alongside Dwight, if healthy.
In today's NBA, Sam Dekker is absolutely capable of playing the 4. Pigeon-holing him to the 3 is Neanderthal pig men thinking.
Nevermind my previous tweet, didn't notice he had 125 thousand followers. Our 2nd best team's in the west conference starters DMO has 50k, Beverley has 51k, Ariza 70k. Must be deep NCAA runs college kids thing, Jones has 170k+ too.
He's very active on Twitter! I have a feeling the Vets are gonna have a fun time making him their lil bish his rookie year.
