    He can just drive the ball in. NO SHOOTING, just take it in. This guy has a talent that not alot of ppl have. He first of all can drive in any time he wants. He is quicker that most 2's and besides he is a lefty, so that is harder to hold for right hand players.


    JUST DRIVE THE BALL IN AND HE WILL BE DOMINATING.

    and also if he realized that he is playing with 4 other teammates. Cuttino has wonderful talent but has too play alot smarter and give up the ball sometimes actually most of the time.

    But... but... but...
    I thought you had to shoot to score points. What? Do you get points for driving now?

    The one thing Mobley needs more than anything is good FG %age. His shooting is miserable. You can drive till the cows come home, but your drive won't be respected unless you have an outside shot to match.

    By the way, on a side note, former Rockets that could all drive, but could never make the shot once they got there :

    Allen "The Original Choker -- Spree's an imitation" Leavell
    Derrick "I Can Score On Anybody (in college)" Chievous
    Kenny "Well damn, I got in here, what the hell do I do?!" Smith


    I think Chievous ended up with a permanent whiplash condition with all of his shot attempts that were rejected... [​IMG]

    Good points Dunkenstein. Mobley gets too the hoop and has open looks at an unbelievable rate. And misses more layups and open shots than my granny on a good day.
