No. We just need to bench house. He’s not a starter. I’ve come to my conclusion this season (albeit a small case sample). This was hi chance to come out strong after his fiasco during the bubble. But he’s looking like the same player as before. Need to give nwaba the start until house decided to step it up.
kinda agree Harden needs a shooter on the court with him to open up the floor Nwaba plays good defense but can't shoot for ****
Man I been saying this since last year. HOU don’t even need House. I don’t want him cutting into BMac or Nwaba or Brown’s mins. He is expendable now
KMJ Deserves to Start, IDIOT https://www.espn.com/nba/player/advancedstats/_/id/4431828/kenyon-martin-jr
When @ashleyem is the only one liking your post, you know your idea is built on a shaky AF foundation.
More likely, McLemore is the replacement for EGo (when we trade him) as the first guy off the bench. Wall McLemore House Tate Cousins
House is in need of some kind of a humbling moment. I don't care about House/McLemore going in and out of the starting lineup to straighten him up a bit. If I'm Silas, I fix House up so he doesn't impact a shortened season worse than he already has. It's not smart to screw this season up. If I'm Silas, and I see a player who is supposed to be there to hit 3s and he can't hit one after attempting 3 of them, I take him out of the lineup. These guys need to come into the gym hangry.
Agree that Nwaba can’t shoot anything but layups/dunks. Don’t think I’ve seen him make one shot this year from the outside. Heckuva defender though.
Fair point....definitely would like more heighth. I would be fine with Tate, but he is only 6’4. It shouldn’t be hard to find someone better than House.
I normally would prefer getting his boost off the bench, but this team has struggled early in games and is a different team when they start off well.
I hope he will be fit for this game, but it seems he might miss it. I wanted Gerald over Bruno, but management didn't make this move. Gerald would have given us shooting with an attitude. Bruno is too soft, mentally and physically. Stone should move him for a future second round pick.
I agree that Nwaba and House are underperforming. I think the solution should be pushing Nwaba out of the lineup though not necessarily starting Ben. I think we should start Sterling Brown at the 3. The starting SF on this team needs to be a low maintenance 3 and D guy - a spot up shooter, that can defend 1-3. I would keep Ben as the backup SG and have House as the backup SF. I think Ben is great next to Harden/Wall on offense but terrible for the defense. I think Nwaba is good next to Harden/Wall on defense but terrible for the offense, everything just locks up after they create and open shot that he or Tucker can't make.
Nah. I like the idea of Mac and Gordon providing offense with the second team along with Tate and Boogie boosting the D.
He's perfect where he is in that second unit. lets not get carried away, we need more than just longrange shooting at the starting 3spot.
No way. Bring him off the bench so he doesn't have to necessarily guard the best players on the other them. Having him knock down multiple 3s during the middle of the game energizes you and deflates the other team - now their coach is scrambling to get his starters back in to stop a run. Raining 3s has a psychological effect.
