    AB hittin some BIG shots tonite in the 4th in a 1 pt win on the road. And the team is already lovin him. I really think it's ideal for him to be on a team like that, looking for a super super fast paced game

    Yea and i think he has the Rockets assistants to thank. They worked with him before every game, mostly on his shooting and it has seemed to really payoff.

    Andre Barret has 12 points on 5 0f 8 shooting and 12 assists tonight against Milwaukee. It's a shame he didn't work out with the rockets.

    Oh please. One good game and JVG is stupid for not 'bringing him up' and keeping him? Come back if he sticks in the NBA on a team for an entire season and plays nightly.

    I mean, I think AB is in the right offense and all, and I like him...but I don't think JVG was wrong to play others in front of him. He wasn't right here--too turnover prone for our offense, looking scared at times. And I don't think he'll play significant minutes in the NBA over an entire season (i.e. the first backup PG off the bench all year)--mostly because his skills don't make up for his height.
