Me too, like smacking my knee really hard laughing, passed it right to Nash ... TWICE! then when i recovered i realized we lost. Man i bet he feels like a big steaming bag of s**t soup.
I'm not bashing on DM other than during free agency. I didn't know Ariza was going to turn into a spoiled brat. I did however, as well as the majority of Clutchfans, know that BRAD MILLER was a huge mistake. Some cheered and praised Brad because Morey signed him.
Nobody. If you can't sign anyone, then don't panic and sign someone that you know you're going to regret signing. As much as it would have pained me for Morey to not make a move. It pains me worse knowing Brad Miller is a Houston Rocket.
Why was it a "panic" move? It was just a matter of taking who was available after guys like Chandler went elsewhere. Relying on Jordan Hill would have been panicking.
Board opinion was pretty split IIRC. Half the board was like "SPLASH!", the other half was like "BRAD MILLER? NOOOO."
I dont know why but all of Adelman's SAC players are finesse players who are unclutch in the last seconds of the game...
I don't expect Brad to be clutch. I'm only pissed that he tries to be clutch. Martin is a lost cause. Just stick him in there for the first 36 minutes and limit his minutes afterwards. Maybe it's a result of more aggressive defense, less fouls, etc.
Ok, this comment clearly shows that you're just pissed about the loss and placing excessive blame on Miller. Not signing Brad Miller (for peanuts btw) would have been idiotic given the circumstances. Had we lost this game without Miller, you would most likely be cursing Morey for not signing SOMEONE/ANYONE in the summer. Dude had a bad few posessions. It happens. At least it's clear that he is extremely dissapointed in himself, just as much as we are. He's usually a good guy to have on the bench.
Getting Miller wasn't a panic move. The Rockets wanted to get better offensively, Adelman liked him, and so we added him when other options didn't pan out. Miller has been pretty much as advertised.
F**+ brad miller. Even my grandma can play better than him. Only reason why he is here it's cause of Rick. Brad and Kevin are Rick s favorite nuts...
