    He's trying to prove himself in the little playing time he gets.

    1 on 5 seems to work for Artest. All Cook needs to do is to attack some fans and develop a rep for being "unstable" and he'll get plenty of PT.

    What is the problem with putting Mutombo into the game at this point?

    Yep saw that.

    I will never forgive Cook for this and now he's my most hated Rocket player.

    Mutombo doesn't need garbage time. At this point in his career, garbage time would be an insult to Mutombo, IMO.

    Injury risk and his age, we only use Mutombo when we HAVE too.

    I'm guessing not to risk him. He is 42 after all. He doesn't need minutes to remember what he has to do when he is called upon.

    Lol yep.

    Either guys like Wafer are trying to get more points and the guys like Cook are trying to prove they can get some serious minutes.

    Because we don't need a real defensive presence with this lead . . and he's 74 years old.

    Same here lol. I really thought he would be a great addition as he is a great cheerleader + can shoot the 3. But the guy just doesnt want to pass. He is looking to shoot as soon as he touches the ball.

    I'm so relieved that we're playing well at home this year, as opposed to years past . .
