Los (I think he earned his own thread last night)

    What impressed me the most from last night was how quick he reacted to the ball. When a shot went up and hit off the rim hard, he just reacted quicker than anyone else. He worked well off the guard's penetration and was solid defensively as well.

    If he stays healthy, I wouldn't mind seeing him splits minutes with Thomas behind Taylor.

    From what I've seen of Bullard so far, I think Rogers deserves a roster spot over Bullard. Of course, Bullard deserves a spot over Collier at this point.

    Anyway, I really like the effort and production out of Rogers last night.

    Los was really hasslin'last night, I don't mind to see him behind taylor and Cato. You see potential on Los when he's healthy.

    Rogers at backup SF like last year sounds great to me. Maybe one of these days, Rashard Lewis will be as good as Rogers.

    I want to officially jump on the Carlos Rogers bandwagon. I didn't see to many rockets games last since I live in Austin. I've seen him twice this year and he sure does hustle. He doesn't miss too many stupid shots either like Cato does once in a while.

    He kinda reminds me of Chucky Brown in the way he doesn't do anything fancy but seems to always be at the right place at the right time.

    By the way, I can see the extra weight Los put on. Its in his upper body. The reason he still looks so skinny is because of those bird legs. Some body types, (mine) just cannot bulk up their legs no matter what.

    To digress from topic, the only time I really groaned during last night's game was watching Cato trying to post up. He has much that he can bring to the game, but that's not one of them.

    Add me to the Rogers bandwagon. I think he has clearly earned a spot in the rotation, ahead of Bullard, Langhi, and Collier.

    I also liked the way Boseman played defense last night. I hope Boseman will work on his jump shot this year and come back to Rocket's camp next year.

    Is it just me or do people forget about the b.s. hoax dubbed the injured reserve. With 14 players, two will wear suits on the sideline for long periods this season. Often times nobody is hurt, but needs change and adjustments need to be made. But I bet you come playoff time Bullard will be in uniform because of his deft touch. Look for Collier, Langhi, Boseman, and Rogers to take turns passing eachother a case of the flu or tendinitis. That's contageous, isn't it [​IMG]
