An Alston to Atlanta deal would make some sense, since Atlanta doesn't really have a point guard. I don't think we could get Harrington for him,...
I still like the trade because I think Alston makes the team more versatile. Mike James doesn’t really give us anything different from Luther Head...
A front court with Yao and an Oakley/Thorpe type would be far too slow to compete. In today’s NBA game, it’s crucial to have big men that are...
Number of shots is not the only thing considered when deciding how much an offense is built around a player. Watch the games. Everything revolves...
This offense is built around both Yao and Mcgrady the same way the Lakers were built around Shaq and Kobe, where every single play is run through...
One thing I'm wondering. If Van Gundy doesn't want people to raise their expectations of Yao too high, then why does he run his offense through...
Until the Rockets bring some more athletes on this team, there’s no way you trade Swift yet. Especially considering how slow and unathletic our...
The problem is really a combination of a lot of things. The way this roster is structured and the way this system is structured requires that Yao...
What happened last season with the Rockets getting off to a bad start and ending the season on a roll, may be the worse possible thing that could...
Add Phoenix to the list. Drafting Marion and Amare late in the lottery. Finding Joe Johnson, James Jones, and Boris Diaw, players that their...
At this point, I don't even want Mcgrady to come back until the Rockets win at least one game without him, just so Mcgrady doesn't lose what...
The reason the passes are so far to the left or to the right is because Yao is unable to seal his man. The passers have to throw it further away...
Isn't it kind of contradictory when you say you're satisfied with Yao's progress this season, yet you think he is what he is. How can he be...
I absolutely agree that Yao has played way too many minutes and Van Gundy depends on Yao to carry the team far too much when he's just not someone...
I'm starting to come to the realization that as long as one of our franchise players is so slow and immobile, we're just never going to match up...
Sprewell is basically the same player as Derek Anderson. They're both shooting guards who have relied on their athleticism their entire careers....
For certain players, the adjustment period excuse may be valid. Alston, for instance, looks like he’s trying a little too hard to adjust to Van...
I don’t think the problem with the guards is that they can’t shoot. It’s that they depend on the outside shot way too much. When a team is old and...
It's hard to penetrate when you have a big 7'6 guy surrounded by 3 defenders clogging up the lane. Move Yao further out, open up that paint area,...
It is a guard's oriented league and I know this is going to make some people angry, but this offense is still too Yao oriented and not guard...
