Watched the full game against the Raptors and I think it is fair to say that Ross has PG's number. The main reason behind their win against Raptors was Hibbert getting "the Durant treatment" from the refs. Currently, Raptors is as exciting to watch as last year's Rockets. You guys should definitely take a look at their games and then get depressed on "Why Rockets cannot play with the same level of hustle?"
Oh my goodness. Portland has lost to New Orleans, Philadelphia, and Sacramento. Must have some key players out with injuries. If not, then the coach must be fired. Right?
You are a bit off. Novak hasn't played any serious minutes at all and Hayes rarely gets some bench minutes due to how out of shape he is. It is the starters plus 2Pat with his bench production. Actually, even Salmons's been doing key contributions.
Look at the whole picture. The situations are not remotely similar. Portland is a team that was projected to just make the playoffs. They are way overachieving with the record they have now. Meanwhile the Rockets were projected as a top 3 seed and WCF contender. On that note people crying for McHale to be fired need to come back to reality . There is zero chance he will be fired in the middle of the season.
