I know our back court has to be among Top 10, even Top 5 in the league Where does our Front court rank in the league? Parsons Scola Dalembert
I think people are being too quick to hate on The Bear. Maybe that's just me. When he was playing amazing everyone loved him, and now after a little bad stretch people are saying we should trade him, bench him, etc. I think that's kinda effed up...
I think they're right around average. That with an above average back court makes for a slightly above average team good for 6th seed. Yay.
Correct if I am wrong but isnt the back court composed of the 1, 2 and 3? while the front court is the 4 and 5?
Slightly below average, but I voted for "average". I think we're in the 15-20 range. Our frontcourt isn't terrible but it's definitely our weakest area. We have a solid all around team now.
No the back court is the point guard and shooting guard. Until they can bring it consistently I would rank our front court below average.
Starting forwards Luis Scola and Chandler Parsons give the Rockets a nice mix of veteran wiles and rookie enthusiasm around the basket. Center Samuel Dalembert has been a nice pickup with his play in the paint at both ends. http://www.nba.com/reportcard/midseason/2012/rockets/
10 front courts better than ours: Atlanta - TMAC/JSmith/Horford Boston - Pierce/Garnett/O'Neal Chicago - Deng/Boozer/Noah Denver - Gallo/Harrington/Nene LAL - Barnes/Gasol/Bynum LAC - Butler/Griffin/Jordan Indiana - Granger/PaulGeorge/Hibbert Memphis - Gay/Randolph/Gasol Miami - Lebron/Bosh/Anthony Utah - Hayward/Favors/Jefferson Portland - Wallace/Aldridge/Camby oh wait.. that's already 11, not gonna bother finishing
Ya know, there are only 5 other teams that fall outside of your range... Toronto Washington Sacramento San Antonio Utah If you think just one of them doesn't have a better front court than ours *ahemToronto*, then that puts us right smack in the middle...with an average front court. Your last sentence there makes it sound like there were a ton of other teams ahead of us.
Minnesota - Beasley/Love/Pekovic Dallas - Marion/Nowitzki/Haywood San Antonio - Jefferson/Duncan/Splitter Philadelphia - Iguodala/Young/Hawes Orlando - Turkoglu/RyanAnderson/DHoward New Jersey - Brooks/Humphries/Lopez OKC - Durant/Cook/Ibaka New York - Melo/Amare/Chandler Sacramento - Salmons/Hayes/Cousins Ok now I listed 9 more, that's 20 teams with frontcourts better than ours We are bottom 10. Below average. Look at all the teams I listed and tell me you wouldn't swap our frontcourt for theirs.
Our team plays as a team and with have a better bench then most nba teams... that's how we can have a bottom 10 frontcourt and still succeed.
