    This is something I started noticing in the first few weeks of the season and it hasn't stopped. Cuttino is all about stats and making the all-star team. He looks for the shot almost every time, even if he has a perfect pass right in front of him. The only times he doesn't shoot is when it is just too obvious that a pass is the right move.

    I keep hearing him say "Me and Steve want to be all-stars" but haven't heard him say "this team wants to make the playoffs."

    Hopefully it'll start to change

    I AGREE. He's a nice player, but sometimes he can be SUCH A SELFISH BALL HOG. I personally like Cat and his game, but he puts up too many wild shots and passes. If he hasn't already gotten numerous tongue-lashes from the coach, Rudy needs to speak up.

    The best is yet to come.
    Go Rockets!

    First of all Cuttino is an offensive player. As an offensive player you look to shoot.
    And Cuttino's comments on the All-Star game were -
    "I have personal goals ... I want to be an All-Star, and you might have a better chance if you start," Mobley said. "But I want people to say, 'Hey, he's consistent.' I want Steve (Francis) and me to be All-Stars, and making the playoffs gives us a better chance of doing that."
    Of course Cuttino wants to make the All-Star Team. Remember the offseason when Cuttino resigned with the Rockets? Why do you think he resigned?
