Why the hell does it matter if Moochie is playing well or not? The bottom line is, he was crap on our team and was costing the team wins. Whether it's because of his lack of talent or our lacklustre system simply doesn't matter. To put it simply, we doesn't fit this team. So what if he's playing well on the Knicks, it's not like we got screwed. The worst thing that happened here is we helped out the Knicks (a team in the EC, which won't affect our playoff picture) at the same time instead of only doing ourselves a favor.
I wanted Mooch of this team as much as anyone, but I couldn't help but feel a little sad at the end of the game when all the Rockets came up to give him a hug. Did anyone else notice how hard Moochie was play D on Wilks when he came into the game. The man had something to prove. If he would have done that the last couple of seasons he still might have a job.
I would rather have Wilks passing the ball to one of our scorers rather than have Moochie dribble dribble dribble turnover. I'm glad he's doing well and everything but the fact is NY still SUCKS even with Marbury and Penny. The Rockets are better without Moochie. That is all I care about Moochie.
My god, Moochie was 4-5 from 3pt range. You know that has to be a fluke. There were times this season with the Rockets he would step inside the line when he was wide open, because he had so little confidence in his shot. Of course, those shots can be easier when you're down 25.
Moochie shot well last night, but he probably felt he had something to prove. He will not produce that good a shot the rest of the season. He just doesn't have it.
This goes back to the "discussion" that Bull and Copp were having after the Detroit debacle. Is the problem with offense a result of the new rules allowing zones and guys to campout in the paint or is it incumbent on players making millions of dollars a year to learn to adjust?
