    So you think Rick has told him not to shoot? Really?

    Same reason Yao doesn't get a lot of shots some nights. Rockets are playing within Rick's system. Our offense is fine, we just need better defense right now.

    Scola is playing center and he's guarding Wallace. If you put in Deke and had him guard Sheed, Sheed would park himself at the 3 point line, Deke wouldn't want to come out that far, and Wallace would have wide open jumpers whenever he wanted. I guess the solution would be to have Deke guard Amir but I think that they would respond by spreading the floor and trying to draw Deke away from the basket where he's much less effective than Battier/Scola/Hayes.

    now that's what battier needs to do if he doesn't do anything else on offense; go for the boards.

    good job shane

    Battier does play well. He is 3-3 and 11 points now.
