    GIVE LUTHER HEAD MORE MINUTES!!

    It's as simple as that.

    Luther is a sniper out there behind the arc. Let him bomb away.

    Discuss.

    Brilliant!!

    there's nothing better than giving a zero-IQ, undersized, zero-defense, zero-handles, zero-court vision, and zero-understanding of the offense and where he is on the freakin' court some minutes!!

    try to watch the game intelligently man, don't focus on the shiny wide-open threes that he makes which a middle school kid can make, focus on Kyle Korver posting his a$$ up, yes, Kyle Freakin' Korver was posting up, and he was doing a great job!! why? because Mr. Head is a great defensive player..

    Head doesn't even belong to this team, not even to the NBA. he has a small PG body but plays shooting guard, but yet he can't do $hit other than shooting, and he has proven to be inconsistent doing that (remember the "rookie wall" that lasted for 30 games?)

    the answer right now is to get players to actually play like they want to win, it's not about players or skills anymore, it's about desire and competitiveness, and we don't have that. and if we need a coach to give the players that desire like many people are suggesting, I don't like this team's chances at all..

    The problem with Luther is what position does he play? If he plays PG, he is a turnover waiting to happen. At SG, he is way too small and the opponent's SG abuses him and often gets three point plays because Head fouls way too often.

    The solution is finding a rotation and sticking with it. I've seen so many rotations that have worked. Yet, the rotation gets tinkered with all the time.

    Staying on topic...

    Luther Head seems to be interchangable with Mike James right now. I wouldn't mind giving him a crack at James' spot

    Head is arguably our best 3 pointer shooter.

    The Rockets live and die with the 3 point shot.

    Head did a great job last year hitting the 3 ball.

    When teams collapse on Yao and McGrady, Head should be on the court.

    I hate all this, what position does Head play nonsense. How as if he's a liabilty on the court, instead of an asset.

    The Rockets play great TEAM defense.

    Well, they did under JVG.

    Having Head on the floor will not compromise Houston's defense.

    Mike James, Francis, Wells and Scola don't necessarily D up. :rolleyes:

    The solution is practicing hard, working hard and trade those chemistry killers. I have feelings Rockets now have a couple of chemistry killers and RA can not control them.
