Miller's performance tonight is fools gold. He has not been very good all year. I still think we will get much better for Tracy, well, I'm holding out hope for that anyway
Chicago does not play Miller much at first half of season. I think they want to give noah more time to grow up and let Miller rest. I guess they will let Miller to play more after all-star game if they cannot trade Miller for something before trade deadline.
Seriously, Brad Miller 25 points on 9/14 shooting? Our post defense sucked today! We were missing Chuck Hayes, that's why.
Jumpshooting big men have been killing the Rockets all season long. We might have had a better chance to win had Jaokim Noah played.
Exactly but since this his last year on his contract he might be traded. I don't think the Rockets should go for it though. The Rockets should do the Sixer's trade if possible. I am totally convinced that Iggy and Dalembert is what this current Rockets team needs to contend this season.
Although I am proud of this group for playing extremely competitive basketball - It is pretty obvious when the late season push for the playoffs comes up - we will be hard pressed to make the top 8 as the roster stands currently. I am not saying it's impossible - but it's going to be VERY tough. IMO - It is time for a shake up to inject some energy into this squad and not lose any more ground in this playoff race. I am not saying we do this as a quick fix by any means and settle for scraps - but I think we need to make a trade with Tmac sooner or later or I am afraid this awesome 1st half effort will be for naught. We need another scorer like Iggy - BADLY - Ariza is never going to be a reliable 1st or 2nd option - which is what we need for those 4th quarter moments - when currently AB thinks he has to jack up a deep 3 or get to the rim and pray for a foul call. I really hope Morey can get a quality trade done quickly. I know it's easier said than done . . .
OK! I was so bummed out after the loss to the Bulls that I waited til now to say something. Then about an hour ago, I got this thought: "Did the Bulls just showcase Brad Miller for our benifit?" Justa thought!
I couldn't believe that guy (miller), this guys is trash and yet he scored 25 points and 10 of his 25 in the 4th quarter, I was amazed...
No we did not blame ariza because he didn't meet our expectation, we blame him because he is playing like a douchbag now. BTW, when Tmac, Yao and artest were lost this season, every one else had to step up their game too, Chuck, Landry, Lowry all did well, but when Ariza had to step up his game and failed, you gave him a pass right, dude? Don't make me poor bad words on you.
Our bigs defense is flat out awful. Landry, Scola, and Anderson are soft on the pic n roll and rebounding. Scola was flat out moved into next week by 60 year old Brad Miller. We could give teams a fit with a legitimate big man who can rebound. Especially now that Chuck is hurting. We're done down low
It is very disappointing to see Trevor go through a drought this long. Trevor has to shoot his way out of it. We need Iggy and Dalembert to at least give Shane some bench time and another scorer to with Brooks. We are flat out awful when Trevor or Lowry aren't scoring. AB can't do it all.
i hope bulls include tyrus thomas for ariza. basically do you want knicks expirings or bulls expirings?
The Bulls are atrocious. 4-15 on the road just one day before coming to H-town? They suck ass. And they beat us. Which means we suck ass. Knee-jerk? We're 6-7 against the pitiful East. Reacting to thirteen games of evidence is not knee-jerk. Wait'll the Celtics come to town and send us into Lottery Heaven. I can't wait. John Wall is unobtainable, but there are some interesting prospects in next year's draft. We have $23 mil freeing up in a few months!
