Chris Paul Confirmed To Play (and Start) Tomorrow vs. Suns

Not worried about chemistry.

Hope Chris stats healthy and Harden maintains a 28 PER. His numbers will fall, but efficiency should increase.

 

lets hope he actually puts up some numbers. because right now im feeling like we were a better team last year with Beverly and williams.

 

and the game is on TNT tmw lol perfect timing haha

 

With Capela's improvement, Rockets are better this year if Paul is only average bench-player good.

 

Oh boy...

Chuck: "Ernah, it's not gonna work. I already know it doesn't work. I saw it the first game of the season. James is just pound the ball while Chris stands in the corner. He's useless on this team."

Kenny: "Agree with Charles. Not gonna work. He'd be better off elsewhere, where he has the ball in his hands."

Shaq: "Ditto those guys. James likes the ball in his hands & Chris is not a spot up shooter. Not gonna work, doesn't scare Golden State, doesn't scare anyone."

 

yeah watching EG trying to run the point guard position last night was painful in the fourth

 

This is unlikely to happen. But with Chris Paul back, it would be beneficial for Mike D'Antoni to expand his rotation to keep everyone rested, energized, rust free, healthy, mentally into the games, and playing with pace. No excuses of being tired. No player could complain of having lost any agility or alertness due to languishing on the bench to long. Distribute the minutes as the game circumstances unfold.

The bench is so deep, I think 10 players "could" play every game.

Guard:
Rotate James Harden, Chris Paul and Eric Gordon. Both Ariza and Mbah a Moute can switch easily with these three when defense dictates.

Forward:
Trevor Ariza, Luc Mbah a Moute, Ryan Anderson and Tucker. To me Ariza is still logging too many minutes. He is older and we need him fresh for the playoffs. Ryan Anderson's defense has improved and I am expecting his shooting to improve at home over the season.

Center:
Clint Capela, Nene and Tarik Black. Clint should play a large portion of the minutes. Nene should be the first off the bench (except back to backs).
But, Tarik needs to play.

And now for some dreaming...
I hope that one night we have beaten the opponent so bad, and the lead is so large, that the mop-up lineup looks like this...

Point Guard -- Bobby Jackson
Guard -- Demetrius Jackson
Forward -- Troy Williams
Forward -- Chinanu Onuaku
Center -- Zhou Qi

This season will be exciting!!!!

 

(As the Clippers continue to tank without Paul)

 

I wanna see CP shooting midrange shots. He's the only one on the team that should be able to shoot midrange consistently

 

I'm excited! I hope he will have a big game, and lead us to victory.

 

Can't wait

 

Great news! Harden and Gordon can afford to rest more.

 

Yesterday’s game is a clear example of how CPknee will take the load off of Harden. That game would have had a great shot of being won with Paul out there.

I can’t wait to see a Capela, Luc, CP3, Gordon and Harden on the floor together, that lineup will be crazy good.

 

We were a better team with Beverley and Williams over Paul, Tucker, and Mbah Moute? The ceiling was reached with Beverley and Williams. This is at least gives the Rockets a fighting chance.

 

@Pen15clubber I smell championship.
