He's become exactly that player I thought he would be coming out of college. I'm not a huge fan of him but he works well if you're a contending team with the right parts. If we had him instead of the Howard/Weatherspoon combo during the JVG era we might have a title.
In SMALL sample size this year 7 games at 27 minutes/gm, he's averaging around 15 & 10 on 50% shooting. Per-36 minutes he's at 20 and 14, thats at a Pacer's slow pace. Would be something like 21.5 and 15.5 in Rockets pace. But lots of extrapolation there, the point is he's doing well right NOW as a starter. He's not someone to count on as a starter like even a Tiago Splitter type, but decent depth. Yes you're right on that. Just meaning to say if for whatever reason the current Rockets PFs get dealt and its needing depth behind a LEGIT starter.
