    To be honest, I start to panic every time the ball is in Head's hand.

    It's time like this when Rafer is missing his shots and Head .. well like Head that we are desperate for AB.

    No, it takes changing your jump shot. I don't care how many shots Rafer shoots in the summer his mechanics on his jumper are SERIOUSLY flawed. He needs to start from ground zero and it's already too late.

    Because Luther doesn't do anything else well. Horrible on post D, no handles, can't check guys bigger/taller than him.

    Luther actually hit a clutch three to stop the memphis grizzlies run and give us a one point advantage when we needed it the most in the 4th quater

    Luther was negative in the bonehead mistakes to good plays ratio last night

    other then shooting wide open shots (which he passes up alot), he's very shaky on most other aspects of his game

    He won't improve, what you see is what you get from Luther, and he will repeat good shooting nights then invisible acts/bonehead nights cycle until we ship him

    Honestly I'd rather see what Von Wafer can do and if he can develop into a nice backup 2 guard

    Let's just be greatful that he won't have to shoot nearly as much this year as he has in the past. I'm confident that he can make enough open threes to help us win games. Thats all that matters to me.

    It would be nice to have a PG like Deron Williams, but that just aint gunna happen.

    I think Wafer can shoot just as good as Luther with the same open looks. Wafer has a bad % over his career but he hasn't exactly had the luxury Luther has had playing with Yao and T-Mac.

    To let Rafer play 48 minutes to make enough bricks to build a new arena.

    I think Aaron Brooks will be a valuable addition but I don't think he's the answer. It's pretty sad watching Luther run the offense, I'd rather have Barry do it.

    well the Rockets traded away a better one-dimensional 3-point shooter in Novak, what's to stop them from trading another one-dimensional player?

    At least that gives us a chance to grab a darn rebound. Can't do much about Luther throwing/giving away possessions.

    AB0 is clutch from free.

    I was playing 2k9 because I just got it today and put Stevie at 1 with Tmac, artest, yao and scola. It was crazy, Stevie is real good at getting to the rim on this game! I wish he could be as good IRL.
