We need a backup PG now. In the worst way possible. Is Lee gonna be PG or Aaron gonna play 48 minutes per game
I think Adelman figured out that playing Lee at point guard was no worse than Brooks. Brooks is a shooting guard in a point guards body. Same ball passing skills as Lee. The only thing is Lee brings that size and defense now. Cant be any worse a distributor than Brooks is by much.
If Lee is indeed our point guard, we'd be one of the biggest team in the league 6'5 pg 6'7 sg 6'9 sf 6'9 pf 7'6 c
Lee is an even worse decision maker than Brooks, a worse ball handler, and cannot get separation one on one at all. He's taller, that's about his only advantage on Aaron. Maybe Brad Miller to run the offense after Lee brings the ball up?
Isn't Lowry coming back for tomorrow's game? That's our back up. If he's not there, I'm content with having Lee.
Is Lowry coming back? If he is, then thats GREAT news. Because if he doesn't come back we are not gonna win a game.
Morey said he MIGHT be back tomorrow. I was intrigued by Lee as the backup pguard spot vs the warriors. He seems to have a nice handle and decent decision making skills. I want to see more of him at that spot down the road in case AB or Kyle go down again.
Lee is capable of playing a few minutes at PG, Brooks is already playing a TON right now, its not like Ish Smith was giving him a lot of time to rest. Lowry needs to get back soon, the Rockets cant have their closer exhausted by the 4th quarter every game due to having no backup for him. fail
:O :O MIGHT. oh I guess when Morey says "MIGHT"..that means he won't be back tomorrow. (I don't think Morey has ever used a absolute term in his career ever lol) I want to see Lee handling the PG spot too. But the fact that Adelman plays Ish Smith an undrafted rookie over him tells me that Adelman doesnt quite trust Lee at PG.
Lee, hasn't shown me anything to prove he's a point guard. He needs to run the fast breaks, slash to the basket, and shoot open set three-pointers. I don't think I want him handling the ball more than two seconds, much less running our offense. I have not been impressed with his bbiq.
Yeah, bad poll. The issue has already been resolved. Lowry is the back-up. Smith is the 3rd string. You don't even need to look at the SGs unless/until someone gets cut/traded/killed.
Are you serious? Who cares if he's an undrafted rookie, Adelman has said Smith is THE best true point guard he's ever coached. Why would he pass up the opportunity to use him with Lowry out?
Lowry will be back really soon so it's irrelevant until he gets hurt in (which he will, because he's Lowry).
