    AB doesn't fit running game either. We have seen many long accurate passes from Lowry in fast breaks, I can't recall when was the last time AB's pass lead to a good fast break.

    Lack of court vision is fatal for a PG. AB will go down as another failed PG experiment by Rockets.

    AB and Lowry need to switch roles. AB plays better wit the 2nd unit. This is why he shined and took the spot away from Rafer.

    Lowry is willing to drive but also pass. He also doesn't dribble forever either

    Aaron Brooks is a shooter and that is it. He is not a starter in this league. Plain and simple. We need to hurry up and start Lowry and improve at that position in the draft.

    To be fair, Brooks did shoot lights out in Games 1 and 2.

    But that may actually be working against us, because now he thinks he can continue shooting like this in every game. He had very quiet Games 3 and 4, so he was trying hard to crunch up his production once again. It didn't work but he kept forcing it.

    And his FT shooting has been absolutely horrendous too this series too, uncharacteristically so. To me, it's another sign that he's trying too hard.

    this game should be very simple since scola was very hot. role players should create opportunities for scola. once scola is unstoppable, yao would have more chance. what a group of dumb asses!

    Lowry was really not much better with some dumb fouls.

    As for brooks, I don't totally blame him for taking 20 shots.

    even when he passed it looked like no one wanted to shoot the ball and they just wanted to pass around so it ended up on brooks to create

    Thats sounds to me as the perfect description of Ron.

    If its obvious who cost us the game then YOU are blind. Yes AB made some bad plays, but so did Yao, Landry, Artest etc. He did ignore Yao on a few possessions, but so did Artest. And the reason why AB ended up with so many attempts is because there was no movement in our offense. Some of those shots he had to take because Artest had dribbled for 18 seconds and had nothing going so he just passed it to AB.

    Im not saying AB didnt have a terrible game. He did, but you cant blame him for this loss. Artest has had worse games the whole series. He hasn't done nothing. And still he comes in to the game in crunch time and just tries to take over by shooting jumpers. If you want to blame 1 guy for this loss instead of the whole team for their poor execution on offense, then you have got to blame it on Artest.

    I doesn't hurt much when we have a weak PG in our lineup

    I really hurts when our worst player on the court thinks he's the best

    Apparently Mr. Brooks thinks we have nailed the series and it's time for his personal statistics.

    just a bad game and very hesitant but we're going to need him to make those big plays and hit those shots.

    I observed at least 3 games, most AB's pass went to Artest....

    Lets tracking it in the following games!

    Sigh. AB is the PG. If the PG ignores passes to players he should have made, what is the point of the PG position then?

    AB has been playing worse each game instead of better. Blazers figured him out, just don't leave him opn on 3 point line, he'll either dribble non-stop, or miss a contested 3, or drvie into the hoop getting blocked.
