Game1? AB played good in first half of game 1, The second half is just normal. AB is not the main reason for the win in that game. game 1 was closed too early , Although he scored more,it means nothing for a game ,just means salary for a player.
Answer this honestly. Where is this series right now without Brooks? He has been the most consistent player for the Rockets in the 3 games. The play at the end was huge whether you like it or not.
Talking about forum names? Supposively your rocket solid but you hate the two players who have been carrying our team for the past 2 years in the postseason. Your A HATER. He made the FT's what's your point? Single handedly? Hey i'm not the one with a 1* thread. Apparently i'm not the only here who thinks you don't know ****. <object width="640" height="505"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EWxV8jDyvYg&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EWxV8jDyvYg&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="505"></embed></object> This one's for you chump.
Hmm..... Let's see. Game 1: Who led Rockets charge out of gate and played 24 minutes only and scored 24 points. Mind you, this is the whole reason why Aaron had a good game because Blazers started to focus post defense. Game 2: Nobody played well, Rockets LOST. Where is Aaron? Game 3: Need I say more? Watch the game.
Only you started, look at your first post in my thread. If you don't like it, you could take a hike and smoke crack in your cave.
It was Brooks in game 1 who led the charge in the 2nd half to crush the Blazers. Yeah, he was left open because the Blazers concentrated on defending the paint. You still have to hit the shots and Brooks did just that. It was Brooks that even made it a game in the end of game 2. It was Brooks who hit the free throws down the stretch in game 3 AND getting the rebound of his miss to finish the game. No...he's not in the class of Chris Paul or any of the other top pg's in the league. You're simply wrong, however, if you think the Rockets are in this same position without him or with Lowry getting the bulk of the minutes. I like Lowry as a change of pace off the bench. He does well to get to the line. Jackson and JVG were right tonight though. Where was his leadership when Wafer was dominating the ball while trying to give the game away? They compliment each other well.
Ok again, if I had offended you before, i apologize. But I made this thread to see what clutch fan members think of Aaron B. vs Kyle L as our future PG. You started name calling in your very first post. Now here is your another: However I found you in another thread posting this. Now tell me how hypocritic you can be. Our most efficient player is Lowry at this point. And it's not Yao's fault that he gets fronted, it truly isn't. All he can do is make the shots when he actually get's it in the post, rebound and not turn the ball over. __________________ AB/KL are the future! It's best for Tracy, the fans and the rocket team to part ways with McGrady. I still wish him a great recovery. Thanks for the good moments T-Mac and I know you tried regardless of what people say. Soo who's the next scapegoat CFans? Yao for MVP! Twitter.com/xpl333zy
Here is AB's line in the playoffs after three games: PPG: 20.33 FG%: 55 FT: 8-12 3pt: 9-14 TO: 5 (1.6 per game). APG: 5.6 MPG: 32 (total 97). I really need to understand. The ball getting to Yao is not a point guard problem. Give the Blazers credit!!! OMG... double/triple teamed even before the ball gets to him??? Illegal D to the 10th power but the rules allow this now. Try feeding the ball to a 7'6" guy in triple coverage... Yao is not a quick enough leaper... someone will swat that ball before he even gets to it. Please correct the stats I have looked up if they are wrong but what does AB have to do to get some recognition around here???
All knee-jerks to the side, Lowry is by far the better player. Unfortunately, Brooks is the better perimeter scorer, making him part of the "Finisher-by-committee". And he's a better shooter, making him part of the "get-Yao-going-early" starting lineup.
Thread title: How bad is AB? How good is KL? AB IS NOT BAD! I never even mentioned Lowry EVER. If you actually READ my sig (umm which you copy and pasted) it states "AB/KL are the future!". Your are completely lost.
Good post. But let's not digress. I am talking about Point Guard. I.E., run the point and set up your man to score. Not scoring guard. You see, CP3 and D.W. excels when they are assisting, not by scoring. Remember that basketball is a game of 5. As a PG, I am looking for more assists and setting up your teammates, rather than scoring. we have plenty of fire powers who can do much better jobs than him. If you follow the game, It's quite often that the team has a better chance of winning if their PGs are doing a great job of finding his teammates rather than the other way around. Tell who, in this list: Yao, Scola, Landry, Wafer, has a lower Shooting Percentage than Aaron?
I am not really getting your logic and I feel you have very strong feelings against AB for some reason. The PG position in this series has to score because that is what Portland is giving up. Blake cannot guard either Lowery or Brooks. How close are you watching the game? Both point guards have a pass first mentality. Both of their scoring is dictated by the Portland defense and within the flow of the game. Do you at least see that?
AB may have scored the majority of the FT points toward the end of the game and grabbed that final rebound which he had missed. but wasn't it him that dribbled way too much on three plays specifically when we were up by 8 around 4 minutes left. and what we get out of it. 2 missed shot and 2 pts from scola that saved us. i don't know about you guys but we need consistency at the PG position not someone I'm always afraid of towards the end of the game that he'll turn it over. lowry should be the one finishing our games at least he'll pass first or drive to the hole for a foul.
he's outplaying blake, he's doing fairly well considering that rafer is chucking it in Orlando, I'm rather content with Brooks icing games at the end with free throws and hitting open shots 3 games he has done fairly well 20.4 pts on 55% shooting 9/15 from three (60%) 5.7 asts a game (matching Rafer's average) 1.6 turnovers in 32 minutes, he's doing very well nothing to complain about. Blake on the other hand 10.3 pts on 48%, 40% Threes 7 asts a game
