    Anderson needs to stop dunking. He is neither athletic or young. At this stage of his career, it will only invite injuries. I know our bench goes crazy when he stuffs the ball in, but he is too valuable as a deep 3-point threat and spacer.

    Spacing is kind of f'd up without him... And then there's some missing interior help defense as well... Deniers are idiots.

    Like Icarus, he flew too close to the sun and was punished for exceeding his limits...

    Best way to keep that Hip healthy is to just shoot 3s

    And yet......I can still remember this one (maybe only?) dunk I saw Matt Bullard deliver. How long ago was that? He had a straight shot 3-pointer lined up. He dribbled it in and dunked it.

    Anderson can be guilty of the same thing: "Oh, yeah? 6'10' white boy who just shoots three-pointers? WATCH THIS!"

    Poor guy. Damned if he do, damned if he don't do. Hope he gets back soon.

    Ryno is still important piece of our roster, having healthy ryno for the playoffs is really crucial

    We have the luxury of sitting guys with minor injuries. Frankly, no reason to overextend anyone if they are not absolutely and totally 100%, unless its JH and CP3 for big games/tough opponents (and that only because we need to win and hold on to the #1 seed).

    Sit him for a whole week or two, Rockets can afford to have him get 100% healthy. No need to rush with this crazy depth.

    Would like to see Green get some burn and payback against Celts.

    He needs to rest. All our players can afford to do so periodically.
    I agree! Ryno needs to rest up. This is why we have this crazy depth. I'd love to watch green just dunk on someone.

    MONEY GREEN TIME

    Wright is made out of glass and Ryno should never dunk again... as sexy as it is.

    Gotta love how, in typical Rockets fashion, there's been absolutely no update or timeline estimate provided for the Anderson injury. Same with Wright.
