    korver looks like he can play D b/c he tries to play D. novak will not even be 1/100th of korver at his best. wish we had him.

    our starting line up has outplayed utah. but their 2nd unit has OWNED ours.

    I can not believe it why do one dimentional players like Korver have big games defending, dribbling, shooting?

    Korver is a scrub just like Novak, but he has hit some shots.

    I joked to myself before the game that during these few days of rest and preparation, the Rockets should have done nothing but free throw and layup drill. Maybe it wasn't such a bad idea.

    Well earlier peple on this board were crying to put him in ! I agree if the NBA was just spot up jump shooting then Novak would be an All-Star ! I agree he has no business in the NBA unless he plays for the Clippers or the Sonics as the 11th player on that team !!

    DAMN IT. It was so great, we cut the lead and it was tied game. And hell not 2 mins, 2 3s by Korver and they again have a lead. DAMN it is painful as hell.

    We gotta keep that lead, we can't give up on defense and leave Korver cause now they again have a lead.

    Tracy Scola Deke need to be in the game and we damn HAVE TO ATTACK THE RIM. Tracy should go to the post again, cause pick and rolls are well defended.

    Last quatert to play solid defense and offense. We can win it, too bad it is again 8 pt lead.

    It's because he has a lot of help, for example, that play where he blocked McGrday, a Jazz player cut off McGrady to force him into a jumpshot, which allowed Korver to get back to McGrady to block him.

    We are gonna lose because no one can hit free throws, and players like Korver/AK47 play out of their minds.

    Korver is a scrub? Man, did you see him play in sixers? This guy is the best catch-and-shoot player in the is league IMO. Imagine if we got him...

    Nah, Korver gets a lot of his pts as tha "trailer" on fast transitions.

    We dont push tha ball like Utah.
