Poor Cat is hardly getting enough accolades from his own fans. He is LEADING THE LEAGUE in minutes. This goes to show how much of a gym rat he has become. The guy is playing over 45 minutes a game! In addition to his sick 3P%, which does not look to be a mistake at all (of course it'll go down), he's shooting 50% from the field. For a SG averaging 22+ a game, that is a Jordan-esque number. Cat is also averaging over 3 assists per game, 2 steals per game, and 5.5 rebounds. All solid contributions. And he's an indentured servant by NBA standards.
Dagnabit.... Mobley must've read this thread and got all big-headed. He went out and shot 0 - 6 on threes against the Nuggets. Those damn laws of averages!
Raven Lunatic, Me too, but something tells me the law ain't done throwing the book at him just yet.....
I was at that GS game (the last Rocket game I saw in person), I don't think Cuttino's shot hit the bank. I can also say I was a fan of Cat then and have always liked him better than MD because I thought MD was too passive and non-instinctive. Though MD's first year with the Gizzards he did begin to look like better player, I am nontheless glad the Gizzards didn't ask for Cuttino instead of MD. Also, I think after Cuttino's big shot someone asked Barkley if threw it to him (Cuttino) because he had confidence the rookie would make it, Barkley said, "NO, I threw it to him because he was open." Of course it was funnyier how Charles delivered the response.
Didn't he say that had he realized it was a rookie that he was passing it to, he wouldn't have passed it or something along those lines?
