According to Yahoo Sports, Houston is the sixth best rebounding team with 43.5 rebounds per game. We also give up 41.3 rebounds, which is...
Realistically, I'm expecting Mutombo at C and Landry/Scola at PF when Yao rests. Against smaller teams Adelman will probably put in Hayes for...
I've noticed Artest in the starting lineup has a similar effect as well. A good reason for having either Brooks or Artest as a starter.
I'm assuming Artest continues to come off the bench, with the rest of the second unit comprising Landry, Barry/Head/Wafer, and maybe Scola playing...
Yes, but only because Brooks has yet to prove himself on a consistent basis. IIRC Brooks did have his problems defensively in his first season,...
I think most coaches don't demote starters returning from injury, which makes perfect sense. You don't want your players looking over their...
Anyone know if Alston has been practicing lately? If he's 100%, I think Adelman will put him in the starting lineup. But like a lot of posters...
Wow. That's sad. He was one of the better writers. RIP. :(
You're right, I don't follow this team, so I'll take your word for their bigs being any good. I did take a look at their lineup and they do...
Agreed. Harris is going to be another good test for Brooks. Vince Carter should be up for the game against his cousin McGrady. I see Artest...
When everyone's healthy, Head would be an option as the third-string point guard or shooting guard. He may not be a vital piece for the Rockets,...
Maybe they can convince some other players to join them and make an all ex-Rockets team. They can tour China and put on shows like the...
Very true, but it would still be pretty disappointing if the Rockets didn't put up a good fight.
Jefferson had an incredible game while it was definitely an off night for Yao. Yao was playing the second of a back-to-back and he really looked...
Man, the Timberwolves are really bad. They had no offense outside of Jefferson, and their defense for the first three quarters was terrible....
It'll be interesting what Adelman will do regarding the PG spot. Brooks went 44 minutes against the Kings, so he probably won't do the same...
I think it's easy to take Scola for granted sometimes. The guy has played at a high level soon after he joined the Rockets, and I think we...
Nice little read. So far, I've been impressed with Artest and the way he handles himself on court and in the media. Thought the team isn't...
It's kind of similar to Scolandry. Individually Clyde and Bullard are OK, but together, they complement each other to make a greater whole....
Enjoyed your post, thecabbage. They may not outright double Yao before he gets the ball, but I've seen plenty of opposing guards "cheat" off...
