Yeah, and it took 5 games before he saw more 1 min of pt Look these young guys suck but they get better the more you play them. Hill was worse than Jeffries before the previous season ended but he caught up fast and is now better. The same thing could have happened to JT except we have no idea since he didn't see even 1 min. of PT on the court.
Doesn't make sense. If this was true, why would T-mac want to keep playing with the Rockets? He didn't ask to be traded until it was clear he wasn't going to get PT. But he did everything he could to stay with the club. Look at Steve Francis, the guy was traded away and then came back and resigned as a FA. Barkeley - bitter? Maybe, but he played here until he injured himself. He never asked to be traded by the Rockets. He ended his career here as a matter of fact even though the team sucked his last season. JT? The guy is a scrub...no one in the league is going to pay attention to what he says and blame Houston. Lavishing players? We have the best facilities that attracts guys to come out in the off season. It's not about the luxuries anyway, it's about the way an organization treats it's players. And Houston under Les Alexander has been outstanding. Maybe we're not the Lakers, but we're pretty high up there. Talent doesn't come here because he have restrictions with cap room and frankly we don't have the big name talent to draw other big name talent. But remember, Bosh didn't snub us - he went to play with Lebron and Wade. You can't take that as a snub to the org. It wasn't about that. If Lebron and Wade were in Houston, he'd come here. no doubt. People need to stop this talk about us not treating players well before people start actually thinking that and makes this stupid false reputation. I've never heard anyone say this really. You don't see Carl Landry saying bad things about us. You don't see Ariza complaining about the org. The only former players that do are Artest and who else? Not even T-mac rips on the org.
