Honestly Dillon needed a change of scenery ! Like I said the dominoes fell like they way should have . It has all worked out perfectly so far
That is true and I think Memphis needs sort of a change as well, basically their GM is put to the test. They will get through it and there are better days, they just need to get thru hell first. I do not think Bane and JJJ are bona fide 2nd options as well. They are fine but I do not have them as sure fire stars. Maxey right now is better than Bane.
My guess is that Dillon fouls out 2 out of the next 3 games. Unless Curry sits the NBA has already penciled in the Lakers and GSW for victories over the Rockets. I think if we are in all 3 games that will say a lot about how Ime has changed our culture. The fact that Vegas has the Clippers as 5.5 point favorites is very telling.
First 5 games 35.2 mpg 60/60/93 shooting Last 5 games 26.6 mpg 42/33/67 shooting First 5 games he was shooting like Steph. Last 5 games he’s closer to his career shooting percentages. Blowouts and foul trouble have cost him a lot of minutes in the last 5 as well.
The right way to view it is that in the first first 5 games his shooting numbers were abnormally up. The last 5 they have normalized more to his career percentages. Hot streaks and cold streaks happen.
I was a non believer but now . . . I honestly think he is probably the most important player Not the best but important. I think he bring ATTITUDE The biggest thing the Rockets good teams need is ATTITUDE . .some CRAZY While Artest was perhaps not as good as TMac . ..but he was more important. Vernon was probably the second most important person in our 1st championship These are the never say die guys .. .they not going to back down guys . . . the "ion know i ain't gonna push him too far" guys We need some CRAZY to push to the next level I think Dillon provides that . . .and I ain't mad at it. Rocket River
I like his archetype. He has fast feet, active hands and a natural defender so he can guard multiple positions. He can shoot from 3pt line or attack to the rim and finish instead if he wants. His middy is solid. There is probably nothing he can't do on the court.
It did not look like a major market was going to scoop him up and yeah he is probably right for the middling markets.....
Not sure what that means, you don't think every major market would die to have him right now? They don't have the coach that their confident would be able to help him succeed. We did. Lakers would kill for him right now. Bucks, I mean probably only Boston wouldn't have a need for him of the major teams. He's been perfect so far.
