Brandon Rush and Chris Douglas-Roberts have had amazing rookie seasons so far, but last night really highlighted their respective strengths and weaknesses. In four minutes last night, Rush had: 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, and 1 turnover (+/- of -8) In two minutes last night, CDR had: 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, and 1 foul (+/- of 0) Discuss (calling moestavern19)
Iono about rush but I know CDR has had bad injuries and also he's got VC3 playing infront of him along with a pretty good player in Jarvis Hayes. Devin Harris often times plays the 2 with Keyon Dooling also. Theres not much time for him to really play.
If you've waited this long to finally have something substantive to prove Douglas-Roberts is having a better rookie season and this is it, I think I'm in pretty good shape.

Folks, this is real. I may be better known for my hard-hitting, data-rich analyses in the D&D forum, but my basketball analysis is just as dominant. Now, it's a good point that the Pacers won, and the Nets lost. But I think the Pacers lost because Rush recorded a -8 in four minutes of play. That's the majority of the points they lost by.
