How about a SG who isn't the single worst offensive player in the NBA, among those who get as many minutes as he does? Can we get one of those?
Um...we're an SG away from having a much better team. I'm assuming you want to see us upgrade there at some point, right? Or do you see Brent...
Forget Wafer for a second. Does anybody really think we shouldn't be trying to bring in a shooting guard? What, are we just going to forget what's...
Actually, Oakland's decline wasn't really caused by a flaw in Beane's Moneyball system. Pretty much the opposite happened, it was caused by all...
'Taking opportunities to get talent that is undervalued on the basketball court' is not some unique philosophy. It's basically a general manager's...
I hear all these people saying Moneyball is about finding the Shane Battier's of the world. Guys who are fundamentally sound, and do the little...
This past season, Shane Battier averaged 33.9 minutes per game. That was 71st highest in the league. Of the 70 players who averaged more minutes...
Making 44.7% of your field goals and 39% of 3's is more efficient than making 41% of your field goals and 38.4% of 3's. You disagree with that?...
Can one of the Battier-defenders respond to this please?
Personally, I'm all about efficiency, and not wasting opportunities. I hate the guys who go out there and miss shot after shot, because it shows...
Clearly losing Pau Gasol had a lot more to do with the Grizzlies decline than losing Battier. If we struggle this season, are you going to ignore...
Come again?
I love all these people saying 'Oh, well maybe now we'd rather have Gay than Battier, but back then Battier was a better fit for this team.' At...
You can't be serious. Or maybe I misread something. I don't know where to begin if you think Tmac, Brooks, Landry for Paul, Peja, Chandler is a...
I know awards aren't everything, but has Battier ever made an All-Defensive First Team?
If they really want to save some money, they should have a look at this trade: http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=ntmezv. It would...
So it's inconceivable that he's improved since he was let go by those other teams? That's interesting, because the production he gave us last year...
Tmac, Cook, Barry for Redd, Gadzuric, Sessions
Sign and trade Odom for Battier? Maybe get them to throw in Mbenga.
Wafer is younger than every other player who played for the Rockets last season except Lowry. We need scoring, we need an SG, and we'd like him to...
