    The hate is strong in this thread. He only played 13 minutes and wasn't what lost us the game tonight. People need to chill the eff out.

    No this goes back to like beginning of the season. McHale has always had a fondness for Cole for some reason. There was that game earlier where he played Cole inexplicably over Greg. And even in interviews, after Cole got hurt, he always used to say something along the lines of Cole played before he got hurt (even though Cole really wasn't playing well at all)

    I agree McHale is looking for somebody who can be back up center because when Asik goes off our already below NBA average defense gets even worse. But I have always gotten this vibe that McHale sees something in Cole that others don't.

    Oh another critical thing that Greg does better than Cole is, Greg is a mean screen setter. Cole doesn't even try to get contact w/ his man.

    I don't know about the most useless POS in the NBA, but if this was the rox trying to showcase aldrich for a trade then his stocks have just completely plummeted.

    I feel like the only reason Adrich get playing time is because he looks like Kevin McHale somewhat.

    Sammy D got us Jeremy Lamb who is tearing it up in the D-League. He was integral in netting us Harden.

    But yeah, I really wish we had Dalembert on the bench, on this highly volatile team he would've been a stabilising force and accounted for +3 wins at least imo.

    At least Smith gets rebounds when he's on the floor. Aldrich's piss poor rebounding cost the game.

    Meh. You're trying to hard to be funny and earn rep. It's more of sarcasm then trolling.

    It's kind of sad really...

    He was a 3rd stringer behind Perkins and Thabeet (yes, that bust who was useless as a Rocket), but now he is backup center here? Says a lot really.

    I feel Cole Aldrich is at least better than prime Kelvin Cato.
