I'm hoping that Francis gets some court time while McGrady's out. The Rockets have to figure out if he's going to be able to contribute. So far, he hasn't looked good, but I'm still holding out hope. When McGrady comes back, he's going to have a tough time taking minutes away from Brooks and Head. So these next few games may be his last opportunity to show something.
i still have no idea why are RA having mutombo at the floor when the rox offense are stagnant. Odd man out for me will be Mike James and Synder. I still give SF3 a chance as his still the "big brother" for yao.
IMO, nobody has played well enough to be the definitive be all solution at the guard position, and all of them have had chances..... So....the saga will just continue until someone emerges ahead of the pack.
Mike James - James doesnt defend and now he stops shooting. Mike James dream-walked in last 2 games. What a professional! Kirk Snyder - Snyder is trying - BUT he cant dribble, he cant shoot, he doesnt pass well, he doesnt post-up, he doesnt rebound, and he doesnt defend well. So, what's left? A big body with leaping abilities.
i'm very intrigued by james. he took ZERO shot his last two games. i know he had limited minutes but still that is quite staggering. obviously he's trying to make a statement, but its only a matter of time before he speaks out. as for francis, he's done. when you get outplayed by our 4th string d-league PG then your career is over. dont worry steve, at least u had a good career for a little while.
So what do you think Mike will speak out about? Maybe that coach! Maybe he's making a statement that the whole team doesn't have confidence in Adelman. Time will tell.
