He just continues to impress me. He didn't get much attention tonight, but had a very solid game. Something good seems to happen everytime he touches the ball. I feel like he should not only get more minutes, but more touches. Scola is a major contributor, but Landry is clearly the most efficient player on the team. He does more with the little time and few touches he gets than anybody. This kid could be a major factor in the playoffs, he might be the difference.
He reminds me of Sakuragi. (for any Slam Dunk fans out there). He's a big reason the rockets are so interesting this season.
he's not skilled enough in the post where you can constantly pound him the ball. i think you can do that with scola because hes very crafty and has a variety of moves to get a good shot. im lovin landry's midrange j though. all he needs is to hit that shot consistently.
I'm not sure yet if I have seen enough to say Landry is more efficient than Scola. Scola tonight was pretty damn good. What I like about Landry is his ability to jump - for the slam, offensive/defensive rebound,dunks,attempted blocks,defense.. This kid has a bright future.
During the ESPN broadcast, the announcers were saying how Landry was starting to garner attention around the league. K-Mart said "Landry was no joke" during a Nuggets practice.
I in no way meant to diminish Scola's game, he played very well tonight. And, generally, he has a more polished game than Landry. But, Landry doesn't make as many mistakes, as many turnovers, bad passes, etc. Tonight, just about every time he touched the ball, it was a rebound, a dunk, he got fouled, or he made a mid-range jumper. True, you probably couldn't post him up as much, but he is a killer on those cuts to the basket.
he's pretty much garnered quite a bit of attention around the league...i think what they said during the game was evidence enough "kenyon martin pointed at landry, shook his head and said that guy right there...he's no joke". every time he steps on the court i'm loving this draft pick more and more...
our two headed monster is just fantastic. they are very different yet very similar in their relentless attack of the boards and the basket. scola was absolutely fantastic tonight and is more polished then landry but you have you be proud of the duo bringing it every night now.
Landry is the best finisher of ALL TIME. I've never seen anyone gets fouled hard time after time and still make the basket!
Landry has all the tools. His shot is amazing. I would love to see him post up inside the paint and fade away 4 or 5 footer. Just look at how HIGH he is when he shoots, its crazy! More plays for landry.
No matter what happens this year What the H*ll do the rockets do on Draft night? PGs are playing well SG is good SF - is ok PF - we good there C - We good there Is we draft . .I guess we go for back up SG or SF???? and they might not make this team! Rocket River
Wow a lot of love for Landry, i think Scola fundamentals are more impressive than Landry hype, but well, i also don´t like Phoenix´s Stoudemire. Feed Landry more and you´ll notice his deficient moves on the post, he is getting the touches he can handle.
Among the many things I love about Landry is that he seems to be able to shoot free throws. He needs to give some classes to the rest of the Rockets.
