    I defended KT all last year because
    I felt someone had to. I think he is a
    fine baller and HIGHLY underrate

    Enter Mo:
    I thought he was highly overrate
    and I had not seen anything special

    SO I felt KT was getting bashed too harshly
    and
    I think maybe I've bashed Mo to harshly
    [I apologize]

    People . . .I think we are fortunate to have
    both of them. I think they push each other
    to an extent. I think Each will improve
    [Honestly i think they will improve by
    leaps and bounds]

    KT's shot is improving. I like what he does
    now . . he doesn't settle for the 3. He fakes
    and RIFLES for the middle.
    PEOPLE he will hit some of those [work on a floater KT]
    He will become a better passer in there.

    I like The Seattle Mo . . MO AGGRESSIVE
    once he takes folx down low a few times.
    The spacing for the jumper will come.

    neither are defensively spectacular but
    Neither is *ss horrible either

    a. They work hard -
    b. Neither is a SUPER Emotional person so
    If they look lackadaisical . . it's just
    them . . not them being lazy [I hope]

    Can we put this WHO IS BEST SH*T to rest.

    Let's unite as Rocket Fans and root for
    both of them . . .is that possible.

    Discussing where they can improve is onething
    but man . . seems like we are worse than the
    BUSH CAMP vs GORE Camp
    [and that is bad]

    I think the separation between Mo and KT is closed than the vote count in Florida ;-)

    PIG RIVER [The new camp ;-) ]

    River...we are always thinking alike. We should merge our threads in a sign that solidarity still exists with some Rocket's fans.

    Rocket River -
    This thread seems like the aftermath of your "What do we need from our PF's" thread. After tabulating my lengthy post, I had to objectively say that COMBINED they are not that far behind the WC Playoff team's combined PF's. Is that what prompted this thread?

    The above post is an example of what RR and heypee are saying to not do. (above GATER's)

    Oh alright, I won't instigate....but I may retaliate.

    Now I'll be happy unless Jamison goes off for 51 against us.

    I agree, KT and MO shouldn't be viewed as a VS. match. They play great in certain games and downright horrible in others. Their games will improve into where they both will have great games than bad ones. So quit wasting your time bashing either one of them.

    What is wrong with just comparing the two??

    KT shows hustle and physical play. He rebounds, plays good defense and is showing signs of maturing by taking better shots and not always settling for the three.

    Mo' hasn't had much time to become acclimated to the system, but is trying to play the big forward, as Calvin has been saying. He is playing more physical and is going to the basket. He still needs to learn how to rebound, something I am afraid may never happen. Also, his defense can use alot of work.

    All in all, without bashing, I say KT is the keeper and Mo's will be allowed to walk at the end of the season unless he starts to gel with the rest of this team.

    Don't forget Cato is coming back...more pressure on Mo'. How he handles it will be the measuring stick.
