    The guy is a Wall only fan.

    Notice he is not really talking about House, his comments are strictly focused on Wall.

    As if Wall can weaponize House more than Harden can.

    We all know that House is a fvck nut and if Harden cant maximize him, it is foolish to believe that any other player can.

    Especially because House is utterly failing on defense, which has very little to do with Wall or any other player.

    Defense is about effort and focus.

    This might be the first time I’ve ever agreed with anything imanimal has posted. I guess there isn’t a better option to start but house really does suck.

    Still one play, doesn't make up for being worthless the rest of the time because there would be no need for a "game saving" play if he was a positive player the rest of the time.

    I mean can a team really have championship hopes with Danuel House as a starter? The answer is no. The guy is a fuxktard on the defensive side of the ball. Having two dudes who can’t play defense (Wood, House) is really going to be a problem moving forward.

    If you didn't notice him shutting down Lillard on the last play of regulation, I'm 100% sure you didn't watch the whole game close enough to have a credible opinion

    Try to read what I'm saying, I'm not saying anything about that one play other than the fact that one good play in 2 games isn't what you want from a starter.

    The fact that the one play is what you keep basing your entire arguement on kind of proves mine killer.

    His defense and IQ alone make him a starter next to Wood and House who are very low IQ players and bad defenders.

    Comparing Tucker's defense to House's is beyond ignorant.

    You will lose IQ points by stooping to his level?

    Discussion is pointless.

    He not the player he once was, both House and especially Wood likely end the season as better defenders than Tucker who is worthless on both ends of the court more often than not

    I guess it's nostalgia that has people pretending Tucker is still a quality player.

    You should go back and read your own post. You called PJ worthless, then proceeded to ignore the fact he showed his worth by shutting down one of the clutchest players in the nba (on the last play of the game). He also hit a big corner 3 prior that.

    The problem is some of you don't value the intangibles that make teams contenders. You just look at box score stats and draw completely idiotic conclusions. Every good teams NEEDS guys like PJ

    Clinging to one decent play when trying to hype up a washed player like Tucker is just sad. I get it, you remember when he wasn't worthless 99% of the time, I do too, but he's not that guy anymore

    How would you know if you go the whole game without watching any details?

    Be honest how many of you jokers were on the House hype train 2 yrs ago? I still remember getting attacked by pretty much everyone for stating House was just a role player. Lol.

    At the end of the day House is who he is, a great value role player. At 3M he can be just a big body taking mins and be worth his contract already. We are lucky to have him on the team for cheap. If he sucks as a starter tbh thats not his fault, thats the Rox FO's for depending on a 3M guy as their starter lol. Its crazy we capped out and cant even afford a decent PF.

    Do we think this will be an actual possibility? 1) will okc buy him out (link)? 2) will houston be able to sign him under the cap? Would have to be later in the season or trade clemons + a 2nd in a salary dump move? 3) would ariza want to come here?

    No way will you see House hoisting up a Finals trophy as a starter. Just absolutely NO WAY!!!
