When we signed him, we wanted "Linsanity". We did not want a "Chris Paul mimic". I don't know who told Lin to start playing like a traditional PG...
I think this is spot on. Lin is a scoring PG, not a traditional PG. His strength is his athleticism. He's fast enough to get past other guards and...
Look at who gets the assists: Howard- Likes to run post moves. Harden - Is the team star and gets closesly guarded. Harden doesn't run around...
I'm not blaming the defense entirely on Harden, but I'm not crediting Harden for contributing to the defense when Asik is on the court either....
I think Parsons should be given the opportunity to start. However, if either Garcia or Casspi gets on a streak, keep them in. When we sub Lin and...
We were 29th in the league for scoring defense last year, so let's not pretend we didn't have a problem. Harden was noticably lackluster on...
The major difference is Lebron still plays defense with that many minutes. History has already proven that 38mpg for Harden results in fatigue...
We all saw what happened last season when Harden gets ridden too hard. He starts saving his energy and his defense suffers. His minutes so far has...
I think it's worth keeping Asik until the trade deadline, just to see him play with the 2nd unit. He may start with Howard for 5-6 minutes, but...
Portland doesn't want Lin. The only reason the Rockets want to get rid of Asik is because $8million is too hefty for a back up center, but you...
We need more guard who plays defense. Morey needs to look at how we can trade Jones/Dmo/Smith for a back up guard. We have Aaron Brooks and James...
Dwight actually did OK. He got in foul trouble early, so he didn't have alot of minutes. He actually went for the dunk on post ups, which I've...
Harfen looks tired. Not hustling on either side of the court. He's settling for a lot of jump shots instead of driving to the rim. He's not even...
I don't see how this can work. If we sign Durant, we would have $60 million tied up between Howard, Durant and Harden. That doesn't leave much at...
It works, because Harden is such a serious threat on the drive. Parsons will camp on the corner 3 spot, waiting for Harden to draw a double team...
I guess you haven't picked up on the clues. Morey prohibits mid range shots. It's been like this for a while.
Parsons is not a complete player. He's good in transition and spot up shooting. However, he is bad at creating his own shot. His only 1 on 1 move...
This isn't getting enough attention. The rest of the team does not know how to pass to Dwight in the post. There's so many times he has to come...
Lin actually played SG in college. All his weaknesses makes sense when you keep this in mind. He keeps picking up his dribbles, forcing passes and...
This is actually not a bad idea. If we can package Asik and Parsons for a good PF, we should. We are deep in the SF position. Garcia and Casspi...
