    Lowry, because he rebounds and distributes so well, will eventually nail a triple-double if he continues to play 40 minutes per.

    He does, and might just...but honestly I wish he would not be back there rebounding and someone else would and he would be available for the outlet pass....

    If your PG is getting so many boards, your bigs are not doing a great job of rebounding.

    Actually, I think its very good for your offense to have a PG who'll go get the defensive boards and then push it up the floor.

    Jason Kidd is the prototypical example. When he gets the defensive rebound and pushes it up, its almost as good as an outlet pass.

    And the fact that this PG averaged 7.3 rebounds per game for his career sure didn't slow down his team's fast breaks...

    yeah but it also means that ur bigs are keeping the other team's bigs from putting up shots from under the basket....and that the def is forcing outside shots....long rebounds

    No GM could have done a better job rebuilding this roster. It's not Morey's fault that Yao keeps falling apart. Still, every decision Morey makes between now and draft day will be the most important of his career, and one mistake could set us back for years. I am both looking forward to the draft and also dreading it.

    ^^Just wish there was a LITTLE bit more to be excited about regarding the upcoming draft class.

    What makes you think the Rockets would have any better luck with Cousins than the Kings?

    Are you kidding? Houston is the city that shot Landry. Cousins isn't going to come here and mess around.

    Actually, this could all be a ruse to get Cousins to play better for the Kings. I'm sure Landry told him about Houston. They're telling Cousins, if he doesn't get his act together, he might get sent here...

    Why would you say that? We have many veterans who can help out on this team.

    Also, if we are able to get Cousins without including Patterson, we would have someone on the team that he is already comfortable playing with.
