    To win this series, the Rockets needs to beat up GSW in the post with a combo of Dwight/DMo/Smith/Beasley.

    The Roxs can't let the hack-a-rocket strategy gain steam and put DMo at center if that happens.

    Yea... that bolded hyperbole is why you have folks disagreeing with you. Nothing in the bolded is backed up by anything pre-nerve injury. Stop using absolutes like "never" when clearly TJones was able to do some things on the court.

    Some people just care about BEING right, and don't care WHY. Glad you admitted your insecurity earlier, takes a big man to do so. Hopefully you can build upon that.

    SMH, well it's not hyperbole, it's just obvious really.....even if you still fail to see it. You failed to see it then, you fail to see it now, it's why I question your ability to evaluate player talent.

    I'm not sure he's trolling, I think his analysis is just THAT bad.

    I remember when those folks were saying he would swoop in and save the Rockets season.

    On the cool it looks like the same damn story to me.

    Super Role Player.

    Difference maker in the post and on defense.

    Clearly someone who can stay on the court and give some production for 2 1/2 seasons is better than "nothing" as you say. If you had begun that "nothing" narrative this season then I could let your hyperbole/absolutisms slide.

    Your analysis gives you the impression that something is less than nothing. It's laughable your argument.

    Bobby is a troll yes. He believes that something is less than nothing.

    Something negative is less than nothing. Think on that for a while.

    Yeah, he really did. It's okay, let's just end this. You didn't get it years ago, you don't get it today, you probably won't ever get it. Not everyone is cut out for knowing what is going on when they watch sports.

    I'm sure you mean well.

    It's funny, I don't think much of TJones. I just think why one is right matters.

    And you got to be "right", which is what matters to you; despite not being able to tangibly show why.

    As do I. If you paid more attention to "why" things happen, you wouldn't have been so horribly wrong about Jones and you wouldn't be wrong now.

    Why matters.

    Yet you haven't back away from your "nothing" comments despite not being able to give any sort of empirical evidence.

    "Nothing" should be easy to prove.....

    I've proved to you and others here multiple times over the years and still you fail to see the obvious. You say the "why" matters, yet you don't apply that to your valuations of players. He's a negative on defense, he's a negative on offense. Put that together and you get him being a negative overall who probably won't be in the league at all 3 years from now.

    The fact that you still can't see that is sad and honestly, I'm feeling pretty bad for you right now.

    Our "X-Factor" is a combo of guys, which is mainly Beasley.

    It's not DMo. Maybe next year or something.

    He hasn't been able to do much. It's obvious to any decent basketball mind.

    Personally, DMo wouldn't start for me on an NBA team. He'd come off of the bench.

    Currently, Beas' skill set is much greater than DMo's.
