A highly interesting question. At a glance, the performance of Paul/Harden/Gordon/Tucker/Capela has been miserable in the third, averaging a -13.7...
I had two sets of numbers up there. The first (starters: -4.1) was the full season. The second (starters: -0.6) was since Dec 9, which was the...
Indeed. But as noted towards the end of my post, other elite teams have starting lineups that are doing a much better job of outplaying opposing...
Yes, that lineup is also incredibly effective at +20.3/100 possessions, though they've only managed to use it in 31 games so far due to injuries.
After rolling out a number of different lineups as they have battled injuries, the Rockets seem to be settling into a starting five of Capela,...
Interesting all the emphasis they put on Harden dropping 35 points "on" Kawhi, and the mention that Kawhi used to be able to slow him down. If...
Healthy relative to us, perhaps, but as a Paul Millsap/Gary Harris fantasy owner I can tell you they haven't had above-average health. Will...
I don't fear any of those 5-8 seed teams at all. I'm going to say the Spurs because I'm a vengeful person and they recently eliminated us. Dodge...
I don't know that the full unit is necessarily the secret. I would say that Paul going against opposing benches and Green going against opposing...
I've been musing to myself for a few months that if he could come up with a killer hesitation dribble that incorporates fear of his stepback, he'd...
I mostly agree, but counterpoint: I think any team would be relatively pleased to play against the league's 25th ranked defense when the chips are...
[IMG] I question the man's IQ and defense too at times, but the Rockets have consistently been at their best when Green is leading the bench...
Thing I most want to see tonight: Get a large first-half lead KEEP A LARGE LEAD Play well in all four quarters, not just the first and maybe one...
It has its advantages, but it's also been a contributor to our bottom 7 defense. I'm not sure I would have done it any differently, with the...
We are 20-9 at home, and 14-15 on the road. So the more home court advantage, the better.
Well I won't say anything about it until we see what his roster spot is needed for, but on its face that is trading something for nothing....
I don't mind getting Shumpert, but if "Knight and a pick" means "Knight and our first round pick", that's an overpay.
Nice get. I'm curbing my enthusiasm because he hasn't been a consistently quality NBA guy in 3-4 years, but he does seem to be an excellent fit...
I understand it. Luxury tax is pretty punitive. I don't think a better player is walking through the door for the remainder of the MLE though,...
Boy, we really need to go out and get some help to address this mediocrity. Perhaps we could spend 49 million dollars this year to acquire...
