    Boki has talent, all he needs is confidence, putting him on the bench like that will not help any.

    bOKi has no end.
    He has already proven to be one of the best players ever came out of slovenia. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he IS one of the top 2 players from that region, ever.

    bOki has the whole package, and it is only a matter of times before he becomes the starting sf.

    Boki does make mistakes, and gets killed when he's on defense. He's two games where his shooting was good, but that's about it. I don't dislike Boki, but I think he doesn't deserve playing time over Pike, JJ, or A. Griffin.

    I might change my mind if JJ keeps struggling.

    Boki had alot of opportunity to show us his goods...that's why he's on the bench now. Until he gets a haircut, I don't see him active, maybe garbage time.

    You have lost your freaking mind or at least you have not watched a single game. Boki's defense has been very, very good this year.

    Another poster that needs to take in a game or two. Boki's defense has been very very good. Well above average.

    I disagree. Boki may have been active, but I've seen the guy he was guarding blow by him, he's also blown rotations to cover other people's men on a switch.

    Must go with crash here. Is there anyone on the Rockets, including SF, that somebody has "blown by" them? No, Boki has been not only legitimate on defense but improving as well.

    I didn't mean that in the singular. I meant that he gets blown by regularly. Steve's D in the Utah game was horrible. I don't think he was even guarding anyone close enough to give them the chance to blow by him. But I will say that in the 2nd half of the Suns game, Steve did a great job helping to shut Marbury down. Boki hasn't been able to shut anyone down, and it's often a field day for the man he's guarding.

    Sorry for the confusion about being blown by one time, and regularly.
