    I am curious to see how Harrell does against Kanter and Gibson. Kanter is unremarkable on the offensive glass, but Gibson is still good in spite of his declining age.

    Next year we're going to have to tailor our offense to accommodate a guy like Harrell. Coach him up, tell him to do everything he can to try and become the next Draymond. All he has to do is hit 33% from three to make himself dangerous out there. The tough part will be to develop the court vision, but with his quick twitch explosiveness he has the potential to blossom even further.

    Ahah yeah, i'm not a fan of starting EG so i understand what you're saying, but i can see MDA going with him in the starting 5 at this point...if that's the case i'm curious to see EG and Lou playing in different minutes.

    I'm also a fan of Sam so i wouldn't mind starting him, a young guy needs to play to improve, if i'm the coach i actually start him tommorrow even if his shot is not working lately, he will benefit by playing with James imo, he would get better shots, if he cuts James will find him etc...but you know MDA loves his small lineaup...

    Two weeks is a lot of time to get Wiltjer some minutes at that position, and I don't mean one or two. Let the kid come in for 4 or 5 minutes with the starters and see what he can do, before bringing in Dekker, Harrell, Gordon, or Lou. Hey, somebody make a rap out of that! I'd love to hear those lines in a rap!

    Of course. Seems like every time we have a good year we always get an injury just in time for the playoffs smh.

    I would like that but the team needs someone to replace Dekker because his game has been poor lately. Should Troy Williams be brought in the last 10 ten games and have a look at what he can do?

    I don't remember their record in all of them, but they blew out the Grizzlies in Memphis with Dekker starting in his place and lost at home to Utah with Gordon starting.

    L 103-109 at Miami
    W 111-92 at home against Milwaukee
    W 119 - 85 at Memphis
    L 108-115 at home against Utah

    We also lost a game at home 108-125 against the Warriors where he played just 9 minutes (i think it was when he tried to come back after that stomach virus)

    Dekker not that well as far as i remember from the boxscores, i think he played around 25 minutes per game with 10 or less points (not shooting that well) but rebounding ok/well -> aside the game against Memphis when he scored 30 points. Other than that i think Trevor played around 40 minutes (more at the 4 i guess), Gordon still around 30/35 with Brewer taking minutes at the 3.

    Again, feel free to correct if these numbers are wrong, that's what i remember seeing some minutes ago.

    Just rest him the last 10 games. Third seed is basically locked up.

    You dudes are a bunch of babies. The Rockets aren't going to lose to the Thunder on Sunday, with or without Anderson.

    You can quote the dude for this too. Bring it at me.
