JVG is at best schizophrenic in his replies 1. He points out there is only 1/2 player role available- and because Bonzi feels he needs more- he gives those minutes to Snyder 2. He says he has concerns about size and rebounding off the bench ( meaning Luther!) 3. He says he is using the best players- and in effect says Luther is better than Bonzi. I forsee Bonzi playing in the playoffs.
Seriously... guys.. I have luffy on ignore for a reason!! LOL Every time you quote him I am forced to read it.. or at the very least glance over it! Getting back on thread... Matt many thanks for the heads up and the interview. I am off to listen to it now.
Yeah I think that's exactly what he meant. That he has an 8 and a half player rotation and that if Bonzi doesn't feel like he can be a player that "sometimes get playing time and sometimes not get playing time" then he doesn't want his disgruntled butt on the bench. I agree with whoever said they think Bonzi will be suiting up for the playoff is right. It sounds like Jeff is weighing the fact that we are winning without Bonzi being a better option then arguing with him over getting X number minutes and finding that Bonzi in a suit is a better option for now. But I would imagine if JVG thinks Bonzi can help in a playoff game he will play the guy without a lot of reservations, because at that point Bonzi is too freaking excited to get minutes at all to complain about the number of them. mind games are scary aren't they.
I have a feeling Bonzi basically wants Luther Head's minutes, being the primary option off the bench. In all the games besides the Celtics game, Bonzi was relegated as our 8th man, getting about 20 min a game. IMO it would be better for the team if Bonzi got in the high 20s to low 30 min/game as long as his attitude was acceptable. I have no problem with him taking most of Head's minutes.
Hey Amel, are you trying to cover all bases with your sig? One part of your sig says the Rockets will be kicked out in the 2nd round. The next part says we won't make the 2nd round.
lol thats the second time someone asked me, I really don't see much difference, but what I mean is that we will not pass the second round, we will win against Utah I have no doubt about that, but who ever comes after is going to give us an ass whopping...
the last post by blahblehblah pretty much nailed the explanation to Amel's confusing sig here. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=126183&page=3&pp=20 Simply put, Amel one upon a time declared the rockets would not make the 2nd round and then backtracked/ammended it, as the rockets got better.
is there some way to combine luther's hustle with bonzi?!? maybe we should call captain planet.. and unite our squad as well while we're at it.
If you really meant that the rockets will not pass the second round when you made the initial declaration, how do you explain your response when other people immediately challenged you and said the Rockets WOULD be in the 2nd round? Care to explain that lol?
got it fixed for you, these things don't bother me so much, English is my third language so I don't look into things that much...
what does pointing out how obvious your stupidity and lies have to do with rafer alston lol? The only problem I have with you "marking your words" has nothing to do with JVG or alston but with you not owning up to it. Its a message board man, have some balls and stand behind what you write instead of spouting nonsense and then running away from it. Oh and FYI, I guess rooting for the signing of Mike James and Chucky Atkins also makes me Alston's #1 fan.
Oh I see now, you want that championship more than the rest of us. This is why you blame all of Bonzi's problems on JVG. It makes so much sense.
