    rocketball .. Shut the **** up.

    Bryce has got better ... But **** . He has 1 good game and ppl are acting like he is the best thing. He did do some ****ed up plays at the end. He plays like **** when its like 3 minutes on the clock, He played a well game, I liked how he played early in the game. But end of games, he doesnt know how to play right.


    Its not all about the points stupid ass.

    1. Remember when Shaq banged Barkley over the head and they threw punches and got ejected? You know why Barkley got the ball under the basket behind Shaq, so that Shaq was out of the play and had to reach over and club him? Because Bryce Drew went up for a long jumper, drew the defense out of the post and, while in the air, fired a bullet (and I mean a bullet) pass to Barkley right under the hoop.

    2. You guys who are talking about starting the Bryce Drew Fan Club are too late. Remember "bryce is HOT!"? Whatever happened to her? I miss her.

    Ok, I will be the only one...

    Bryce Drew sucks. Three good games don't make up for all the bad ones before hand. Remember Matt Maloney? What can Bryce do that Maloney can't? Didn't he play ball for the Rocks at one time? And he is where now?

    This is his 15 minutes of fame. I hope he enjoys it while it lasts.

    i've been eating my words for the past few games now about bryce... but against kidd? today i was even concerned, thinking that barkley & anderson (mobley to a lesser extent) would have to take on the role of ball distribution (i actually expressed concerns w/ rudy's inability to get a backup this year and last year (kj b/c of scottie)). but 10 assists? i think that i'll relish my role of rocket fan rather than rocket mgmt.

    bballfanatic:
    But let's keep in mind it's human nature of the "fan" to ride high on a winning streak then to be down on the team and players when they aren't playing well.

    how true, let's hope that those of us whom have questioned rudy (including myself) will be eating our words on that note as well... if we're 10 and 12 by dec. 15, i think that rudy will be untouch(e)able (and deservedly so)

    Francis3, It has been more than one game. But you probably couldn't admit that.

    Look guys.. If he can keep this up than ok he is good. But if he starts to suck again. Then all this stuff he did will be forgotten.

    Its not about how much you score, its about how smart you can play.

    Wait a minute, I bashed Drew too, although I said he was a total defensive liabilty and now he is playing some defense so I take that back. He outplayed Jason Kidd-- with more minutes.

    Drew Min 42 Fg 5-16 TOT 6 AST 10 TO 3 P 14
    Kidd Min 37 Fg 5-14 TOT 6 AST 5 TO 2 P 12

    Drew outplayed Kidd in Asts that's all, and a big factor was the Rocks were shooting well, and they moved the ball really well, the Suns had more TOs than the Rocks (14-20), so they shoot less for 5 shots than the Rocks. Now Drew has a good game doesn't mean he is good backup pg, I am not discrediting Drew, I just need more games to evaluate him.

    exactly .. One game doesnt mean anything. But we really need him to bring some offense off that bench.

    OK, so that's what happened to "bryce is HOT!" Glad to know you're still on the premises, young lady.

    Next question: Whatever happened to her tormentor, "bench is WARM!"? Stand up and eat your crow, you villain.

    Good evening folks!

    Didn't see or hear the game, but it after reading the box score, it looks like the rocks played well.

    Francis

    Tht's just it, I think Drew is one of the smartest players on the court for the Rocks! He is now getting the chance to get in a grove, that's why your seeing an emprovement. And to say that you'll only approve when he's doing good and ridicule when he's doing poorly is the worng way to look at it. He's a Rocket, untill he slanders the team he plays for, he deserves our support. Good or Bad!

    Look I see that me talking trash about your favorite player has gotten you mad. But admit it, He plays like a dumb ass the last couple of minutes. He rushes, he does alot of dumb things at the end of the game.

    I wish the best for him, I hope he can become a good player... A GOOD BENCH PLAYER!!

    The way ppl here are posting.. Its like Bryce Drew is taking over the starting spot.

    Almu,

    Why does everyone want to compare Bryce Drew to Maloney, they are not the same players by far. The only similarity between the two is that they are white. Bryce's game is much better than Maloney. Let's not take my word for it, lets take people who know something about the game:

    Cato after the game: "Drew is a player, he was my point guard on the blue team practice, I love his game, I love this guy."

    Barkley: "Bryce Drew can play in this league...."

    And so on, I think these guys would know if he can play. So give the guy a break, he has some talents or he wouldn't be in the league....

    No one is saying that he should take over the starting spot, just that he deserves some credit. On the other hand, you guys just come out and say the guy sucks, and that is also false. This guy does bring some things to this team and that cannot be denied. Yes, he makes mistakes at times, sometimes rushes and even panics in certain situations, but everyone is making mistakes. You don't lead the league in turnovers, cause of one guy. Barkley has more turnovers this year than Drew, so why aren't you bashing him for dumb mistakes. The problem is, people are bashing him for the wrong reason, it has nothing to do with his ability on the court.

    Drew, by the way is not my favorite player, I am just a Rocket fan and like everyone who puts on the uni. I will critize them constructively, when I believe it is needed. It is when people take personal attacks on a player, without backing it up I hate.

    Drew, is a good BACK UP point guard for this team.......case closed.
