Martin knows he must get in the flow of Rockets’ offense

This is pretty much the answer as I posted in the game thread.

Our offense is a bunch of garbage ISO ball.

 

Hopefully this little slump he's in ended with the Magic game, and the 20+ ppg Kevin we all know is back for Thursday.

 

I thought Finch was going to run the Adelman offense?

 

I was never concerned about Kevin's shooting slump. He's a good shooter. He'll get over it. What bothered me most was his body language and apparent apathy on the court. THAT was my pet peeve. It seemed like he didn't even want to be out there.

 

That's just the kind of attitude that makes you want to root for him. It's nice to hear the coach recognizing he needs to do work.

 

I think it's just denial that he is saying that the deal hasn't affected him. From the "assets" comments of last season to his general personality and demeanor, it seems like he is the sensitive type of person who would let the vetoed trade affect his game.

 

Martin knows he must get over his b****assness and do so fast.

 

I noticed the same thing watching the game. The offense centers much more around the PG and low block. I already miss all the cutting and passing from Adelman's offense. It was a beauty to watch and at times, unstoppable.

 

Our offense is without a very, very important piece. Chuck Hayes at the high post throwing crisp passes to cutters or gobbling up space with the dribble. Hayes was a very good fit offensively under Adelman, believe it or not. There is no way we can rely on Dally or Hill to give us that. And we need Scola in the low post. That's why we were trying to get Pau so bad. He would be the perfect high post for the passing/cutting offense.

Dalembert's passing from the high post was OK last year with SAC and he has a decent mid-range shooting so I think he's fine.

 

Yep, the old dump it in to the post offense, punctuated by the Francis dribble drive and dish offense.

Ugh...I really liked Adelman's offense, loved it, but alas, it is now gone.

On the plus side the Lakers junked theirs too and are having similar results.

I miss Adelman's offense.

 

I wouldn't normally be concerned with a single bad game, but this one was particularly abysmal.

Martin has never scored less than 5 points while taking at a minimum of 10 shots.

In that sense, it's not a stretch to say that this was Kevin Martin's worst professional basketball game ever. Combine that with his terrible (albeit short) preseason, and I'm thinking this ship might not get righted as quickly as we'd like. Especially with the ever-changing rotations, and lack of practice time this schedule will afford.

 

Like i said, if everyone plays like they are supposed to, we can go on a little winning streak.

 

After watching Kevin Love shoot about 50 free throws tonight, can you imagine what Martin would do up there? Those games would last 4 hours between him and Love going to the line all the time.

 

You Suck
