If Prince Luc, Demarre, Frazier, and Bruno, if they're not getting played then why didn't we keep a hartenstein or another 7 ft. Even if you don't play that center most of the season/bubble, there may be situation like the Lakers, where you'd want that option for a few minutes.
I SO WISH A) was possible. It starts at the top and he is ignorant in terms of basketball. He’s a “superfan” and that’s about the extent of it
cant believe mike wont even try bruno after seeing all of those offensive rebounds smh. bruno can also be a lob threat for james, mclemore makes a three and isa 3 and is immediately benched lol. get this guy outta here vogel is up 2-1 and still expiermenting with his lineup
I don’t know if we need the tall center again but we definitely need a way to get more rebounds and keep the other team off the glass. when our O is rolling and we’re getting a lot of transition points but when things big down the lack of rebounding is being exposed
Regular-Season version of James Harden is needed!!! This is Play-off version of James Harden Presented to you! CHOH, CHOH.
I'mma say it here too. We need a big. The guy doesn't have to be 7'6 Boban, but he has to be someone that knows how to play big. We can't disguise forwards as centers. It doesn't work. People think too much about size when it comes to centers, it's not really that, Chuck Hayes was a big and 6'6" Kevin Durant taller than most NBA centers but you'd never put him there for a reason.
Vogel didn't have to figure out much after game 1 himself; the analysts, the fans, most people all pointed out for him. So he just sat JaVale and Dwight. With a AD a skilled big that spaced floor, it was our next chess move. Game 2,3,4, repeat repeat repeat. If this was the 90's, guys like PJ can go rougher, but Refs only let you do that so much in today's soft game. So then how do you adjust. What happend to the wingspan, are folks putting hands up at least. I admire the Rockets help defense, but they sagged too much at times and had few answers for the cuts. What changed defensively where the guys couldn't box out. Rockets defense and offense, are potent but also too predictable. Folks here ride or die with Rockets, we'll cheer them on till the end. Just leave some flexibility with what you can do.
Need skilled players period. Ppl who can dribble without turnover it over. Our players are too limited. Need more skilled. When we have a two on two fastbreak with Russ leading the charge and it results in a turnover thats a let down for somebody with Russ speed and athleticism but it’s happened over and over again this series.
Rockets have been losing for a variety of reasons. It takes a real simpleton to say "Need tall players..." I am very entertained by it though. Peeping all this basketball IQ.
Their is nothing wrong with playing small ball you just cant and shouldn't play it for 48 minutes. It starts to wear you out physically. You just need it for 30 to 36 minutes a game after that get you a versatile big. The Spurs were always getting no name bigs like this all the time. The Clippers are doing it with Montrezz
Morey and D'antoni will double down and introduce "Nano-Ball." 5 guard lineups. Everybody can put the ball on the floor and get to the rim! Rivers Westbrook Mclemore Gordon Harden
we lost to the Philly in the bubble, that wasn't a fluke loss. If the other team has a center who has some elite offensive abilities, they can easily expose us.
