    Did KMart work so hard on his 4th quarter clutchness that he forgot how to score normally? Today's game would've been pretty funny if he hasn't been so erratic this season. :(

    I think the Rockets would be even better with Lee and Gasol in the starting lineup over Martin and Scola.

    Lee isn't better than Martin, despite Martin's inconsistency

    But yes, the team would be upgraded overall because we'd have Lin and Nene, not just Gasol.

    Nene is overrated and makes top money, that of an all-star and he is nowhere near that level.

    There is not enough offense in that lineup. If they're doubling Gasol and the 3's aren't falling, where is the offense going to come from? Like Martin, Gasol can also disappear for games at a time.

    We don't need anymore softies on this team. You only get Gasol if you can pair him with a tough frontcourt partner like they tried to do with Nene.

    I really don't want to trade both kmart and scola for gasol anymore. I was all for it before the season, but with the team on a run and finally developing chemistry and learning to play with each other, I don't think we should break it up.

    I'm torn on these conference rival games lol, if Lakers lose we move up, but if they win, we get closer to Dallas. Part of me wants the 2 & 3 seeds to fall down in the standings so we're all evenly matched lol.

    you are right, but morey gave his stamp of approval, so most people on here now think he's good.

    He could be pretty good in the right system. But he has to play with a superstar.
    Gasol might be close but no cigar.

    I say as long as K-Mart brings anything defensively, he's worth having out there on the court as a prime offensive threat to the other team.

    He can hit 3's, drive the lane, and cause your big men to go into foul trouble, teams should be afraid of this guy.

    Not to mention he is probably top 5 in the nba in guys you want on the line in crunch time.

    I think the problem still lies at the center position, need a big who can pass, defend the post and is NOT SOFT. Chuck Hayes...

    Well technically Morey is doing a phenomenal job. He had Rudy Gay, Pau Gasol before trade fell through, Jeremy Lin, and by some accounts Nene almost sure to sign. Heck he even had Nicholas Batum. Now if he just had the foresight to keep them and not so much bad luck? We would have a real contending team. As it is he has done pretty well even letting go all of that talent. Unlucky guy.

    that's too much money. Chuck has not been playing fantastic basketball so far outside of Houston.
