Maybe if Griffin had a BULLHORN, his teammates could see he was wide open!

    Griffin is also a better clubhouse presence...maybe Griffin has the better personality to jell with his teammates, but you seldom hear Francis or others praise KT. Why is that? Being a teamplayer is important. Cuttino may not be the personification of "team", but Kenny is far worse...

    Griffin is not only fascinating to watch, but has a poise, and maturity KT surely lacks...

    i think taylor will have no problem adjusting to playing with griffin. mo doen't seem to have taken personally what eddie has been acomplishing. if anything he has been very congratulatory towards him. just check the numerous chronicle qoutes to see how much taylor praises eddies game. whether or not that changes when he gets court time i dont know, but i definitely respect mo taylor as a good teammate.

    What the heck are you basing this on? I don't remember KT ever taking a swing at a teammate.

    There's no doubt KT doesn't like to pass to EG, but other Rockets look hesitant to pass to EG as well. I feel that EG is becoming one of the key go to players on this team, it's ridiculous that he's not getting more touches than he is right now. Like Clutch said in the recap, EG changes this team by leaps and bounds. He makes this team much better.

    Okay you asked the question, I'll answer. Yes, it was a coincidence. It had nothing to do with Thomas and its pretty silly to even suggest it did. He only took 13 shots and made 9 of them. Not exactly a ballhog. And in case you didn't watch those two games, Francis had a ver bad game in Philly, which is why we lost. And as for the Raptors game, the D couldn't stop the Raptors offense. Oh yeah, and our best player wasn't playing that game.

    Second play of the Jersey game... SECOND PLAY OF THE GAME, KT gets the ball in the post, down comes the double team, KT passes to a cutting Griffin for a foul and two free throws. Friggin KT, how could he forget that he's not supposed to be passing to that damn rook!!! GRRR!!! :mad: :mad: :rolleyes:
