Hayes is like Battier. Neither shoots or scores much, but when they do shoot they are extremely efficient. I actually think Hayes's low-volume...
Reason to start Howard? There is NO reason. PER and per-minute numbers aren't voodoo stats, and supposedly reasearch has confirmed that most...
I would start James at PG, T-Mac at SG, Battier at SF, Hayes at PF, and Yao at C. This leaves the team less undersized (only Hayes is short, but...
In 2005-2006, his had a PER of 20, 21.9 points per 40 minutes, and a TS% of 58.3. That's pretty damn good. No, he would be a good player on a...
Houston's 2004-2005 Player Pair Stats Yao was not only better when he played with Mike James, but he got more FGAs and points per minute when...
People don't criticize Juwan the person. They criticize Juwan the performer, who sucks on the court. More bpg than a PG? Maybe score in...
We criticize Howard because he sucks, and the stats support it. Don't by into JVG's propaganda, Swift was NOT worse than Howard. Swift has been...
What kind of player is SO dependent on the quality of his teammates, that he's utter crap if they're utter crap? Furthermore, studies suggest...
Alston's career PER has been below average. And his TS% has always been well below league average. Alston's PER is low because he can't hit his...
Haslem is below average. His rebounding % is a bit above average but nothing special. His scores at a decent percentage, but he doesn't get you...
I don't have an account there. It's true that Yao needs someone who can get him the ball, but that doesn't necessarily mean that we need a...
Alston is NOT the best PG the team has had in years. He's just the best passing PG the team has had recently. Steve Francis (as overrated and...
Jackson just had a season in which he averaged 0.294 FG%, 0.243 3P%, and 0.692 FT%. That's RyBoesque. The guy is BEYOND done. What good is a...
Hayes should be given the starting spot and locked up with a multi-year contract (it doesn't even have to be big, since he's extremely underrated...
Now that I think of it, Mike James doesn't even have to take all his shots at the expense of T-Mac or Yao. Sure, their shots would definately go...
If this team could acquire Mike James for the MLE (or whatever the Rockets can afford to offer), then they would be stupid to turn him down. This...
So Yao didn't guard Ilgauskas, Krstic, or Curry? Then which Rocket did? :rolleyes: The only one who MFW2310 mentioned there who Yao might not...
Of course Yao's height makes it harder for his opponents. That's an argument in favor of Yao's defensive abilities. Is that why he gave up...
I just checked, and I seem to have made a mistake. The All-Defensive Teams are voted on by the coaches, and the DPOY is voted on by the...
The Lakers had two great players, but that didn't make them a good defensive team in 2001. And I'm not saying that defense isn't important, just...
