According to CBS sportsline player ranking Houston PG: 7 SG: 7 SF: 16 PF: 28 (Cato) and 30 (MoT) C: 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total #: 60, average ranking 12 (60/5) Is that interesting that Houston's team ranking is 12, too? This further prove that Houston has no mid-range game. A guy like Padgett actually looked pretty good in its lineup.
If Padgett can just shoot a decent jumper, he's going to get a lot more time as long as the opposing team doesn't have a monster at power forward. It goes to show how important Yao is to the Rockets. The Celtics tried to go hard at Yao to get more points in the paint, but Yao warded off many shots. The FG percentage was 36% for the Celtics with the 3 point percentage being 43%. It was shutdown time in the paint even with Cato out.
Right. Padgett did great tonight in his spot start, but to think of him guarding the Elton Brands, Tim Duncans of the league is laughable. Cato can atleast be servicable against the Tim Duncans of the league and even Shaq. We'll need Cato starting in playoff games, so I like our rotation now as it is.
