    Maybe K.T. is the franchise player. "Franchise" was "en funko!"

    I read Minnesota is pushing Wally S. It's easier for the guy on the winning team to win this award, at least they get TV time. Interesting coincidence, Wally S and KT are the same height and weight.

    Doesn't want to get traded and looking to beef up his stats.

    While I don't think much of KT's game, I do respect his effort.

    If the Rockets played with as much fire as KT, we would be much closer to .500.

    gr8-1,

    What do you have against KT? I think he really played his a** off. And we have what 12 games remaining in the season. How much can he beef up his stats in 12 games? And there's nothing wrong to work hard at work to avoid being fired. :)

    I don't think Gr8-1 was dissing KT. Just pointed out that KT DOES have something to play for, despite the crappy record.

    And, he is right. It's a wonder how some players are great before their contracts are up, then suddenly aren't that great after they receive their contract.

    You must not be a Karl Marx fan? :D In all seriousness, I find KT's speed remarkable. However, I think MoT may be our PF for the immediate future. Maybe KT is trying to prove Rudy and the fans wrong. I don't know if it's the playcalling, but KT is kind of a black hole (an efficient one) on offense.

    -And Mo Taylor ISN'T a black hole offensively. Signing Taylor was a stupid stupid move to the $$ he got. He's got a decent jump shot, but is soft, has no post game, can't rebound, and can't play defense. Average at best player. Kenny is way better than Mo defensively.

    I too am starting too believe in this guy. KT might be our best player because he is not selfish.

    KT not selfish?

    He is more of a blackhole than Mo.

    Mo also is much better at denying inside position on defense.

    KT's defense consists of stripping his man, or getting called for a foul. That is not defense at all.

    They both are poor rebounders for PFs.

    Kenny is so overratted, He is an awful passer, and cant board at all.:rolleyes:

    Seriously where do some of you get this stuff? Kenny averages 7.5 boards a game and his is a poor rebounder, on top of that he is 6'6"-6'7". He is also gaurding the best big men in the NBA, the west in paticular is stacked with 4's that are good, yet he still averages about 15 a game, on 48 percent shooting, I guess that makes him a more effective black hole that A.I. Kenny shoots about 15 times a game. yet he is black hole. He also averages 2 assists per game, thats not a ton but its better than none, he also is doing this on the rockets. If you fed moochie under the basket, not that he would ever be there becuase that would require movement, I would not be suprised to see mooch dribble the clock down before taking his layup, or dribble it out for a three.

    If you guys want to talk about a balck hole look no further than cat or moochie, as much as they dribble and waste time, i think they are more of whats wrong with this team the Kenny. Kenny busts his butt and you Kidrock8 just blast him. If you had a clue I might listen to you, but you dont so I wont.


    Mo also is much better at denying inside position on defense.
    Yeah mo is a great defender:rolleyes: of course he will be a better at denying the post, he is taller with longer arms, he can cover more area, thats also why Mo should be a better rebounder than KT but he is not, Mo isnt a good rebounder for a sf and most sg. Kt is an average rebounder for a PF, but its a hell of a lot better than mo

    KT is also only in his 3rd year, and has now realized that he can not only play at this level but excel. He is taking it to Cwebb, and KMalone, and Shareef, KT has no fear, he has turned into a man.

    Now if we could just get our guards to do the same.

    KT is playing with a lot of effort and is also playing smart ball unlike the rest of his teamates.

    I praise KT's effort but he needs to learn how to shoot before he's the future of anything. He'd better work solely on shooting this offseason if he plans on challenging Mo T for a starting job. I can hardly still believe that he used to make 3's. He'd be better as an instant offense type bench player with the driving ability he has.

    I honestly think that if we had Magic Johnson or Michael Jordan on our team when they were in their prime that kidrock8 would find something about their game to criticize.

    It's one thing to criticize Francis's lack of leadership or Mobley's shot selection (although that is a lot better now), but to say some of the stuff about KT like that is pure idiocy and lunacy.
