    Sorry but I gotta disagree... if the shots ain't fallin (regardless of how open or in rhythm they may be...) then you need to pump the brakes on the chuckin' and try to help your team by doing other things - passing, defense, etc.... not just Corey - but pretty much anybody...

    There's a Chinese saying, "Use a long line if you want to catch big fish."

    Brewer is a CON-summate professional. I hope he retires a Rockets.

    Brewer gets the green light so longer he doesn't get court time during critical times.....

    Who else is here because of the big O in front of 'Antoni?

    Brewer was 0-8 from three in the WCF. Just think if he would have played the con for that warm-up Finals.

    I get where you're coming from. But if you're in the game, and the first & second looks aren't there, and the ball swings around the key to you, you take the shot.

    Brewer has been fine this year. I hate to say it.

    I still think O'Antoni should limit him to 7 first half minutes total.

    he has to say that otherwise Brewer will play even worse with less confidence from his coach.
