to cut Matt Bullard, he is downright horrible, and bring in somebody who can shoot 3's and actually make them in the clutch, and who can play some defense, and drive to the hoop. Sooooooo what he can crack jokes, and the whole team can laugh in unison with him, does that win games agains Sacramento or Dallas? HELL NO!!!! drop him now he sucks, drop the Gordons Fisherman now ------------------ got milf?
All Matt Bullard is asked to do is shoot three-pointers. He does that job well. Get off him. ------------------ Founder and President of the Houston Homers Club(HHC) - Are you a homer? Join now! The Rockets will be NBA champions. Believe.
I agree with Puedlfor.Although Bullard is limited to hitting the threes,he can still be useful to us,especially with the new zone defence rules.Bullard is also a cheaper option than Walt williams who needs to be traded along with Cato. ------------------
Bullard will be a FA this summer. The new rules will probably give Bull some additional value. He loves it here and it wouldn't surprise me if the Rockets and Bull already have a wink-wink in place where he signs for a veteran minimum (about $1.2M). Bullard is aware of his limitations and plays within the Rockets' system (and himself). He is more bang for the buck than the Rockets will find anywhere with the $ they will have available. Maybe you prefer we sign Isiah Rider? ------------------ Raef to Rocks in '01-'02! [This message has been edited by GATER (edited May 06, 2001).]
Bullard shoots threes no better than Langhi, Langhi is younger and can do more.... "Get off of him".....he sucks, let this joke go, and lets get somebody who can score and play defense. You know, you say he hits three's he cant shoot a three any better than Langhi or Gugliotta or Christian Laetner, BULLARD IS NOT A AUTOMATIC 3, by no means, he shoots 8 in a row when we're up by 25 but when we desperately need his 3, he is off, waaaaaaaaay off, off into his drumming ------------------ got milf?
Do you know what a role-player is? Its a player who is only asked to perform a certain role. Matt Bullard's role is to shoot three's, something he does very well. And I seem to remember him draining several key threes in a 20pt comebck versus the Spurs. BTW, 3-point percentages Matt Bullard 40.4% Christian Laettner 30.8% Tom Gugliotta 25% Want to make anymore stupid claims? ------------------ Founder and President of the Houston Homers Club(HHC) - Are you a homer?

OlajuWons - Bullard was 20th in 3PT% for the entire league. Since Langhi was 0-1 for the season, I'll take Bull for another year at a bargain price while we groom Langhi. Why don't you give it a rest. ------------------ GATER [This message has been edited by GATER (edited May 08, 2001).]
Besides a couple of airballs here and there, Langhi cant do much more. Bullard stays. You are alone on this one Olajuwons ------------------ I hope, when they die, cartoon characters have to answer for their sins.
DAMN! somebody done got told. Good job Puedlfor.

Do you remember a Houston-San Antonio game that happened in March at the compaq center? We won that game by 4, without Matt Bullard we would have lost that game. Matt shot 6 of 7 from 3 point range in that game. It was a close game when he did this too. ------------------ Saturday, Donny, is shabbas, the Jewish day of rest.

WHOA! middle aged yuppy, fat bellied bleacher creacher Pudelfor??????/what ever the **** that means.... I would go to my nerdy data files and bring up the statistics for his defense but they dont have any, He is horrible, "NAH I DONT KNOW WHAT A ROLE PLAYER IS", is somebody we put in to help ignite a spark, yeah that is BULLARD ALRIGHT, I FORGOT JUST HOW ****ING VALUABLE HE WAS, excuse me , I am lame and dumb, he is definitely somebody we need, we need him around..........NOT!!!!!! I just know you r****d that we can have a role player,. hey I shouldnt waste my time having to explain here but I will, if we have to have a role player, why cant we have one who is more athletical, one who can come in and give us some , with his skill, some productivity, there are millions better than him who can be "role" players, is it because you like his hairstyle, here worm,Jim Jackson, George McCloud, and Cherokee Parks, check out these guys for me to, OH and I will be waiting "to get told" again ------------------ got milf?
Jim Jackson - 32.5% George McCloud - 32.9% Cherokee Parks - 0.00% From the nerdy data files at ESPN. ------------------ Founder and President of the Houston Homers Club(HHC) - Are you a homer? Join now! The Rockets will be NBA champions. Believe.
You keep missing my point. My point is that Bullard's role is just to shoot threes, not to play defense, not to be athletic and not to drive and score. It doesn't matter if he could do all that, if he could he would have a different role on the team, but he can't. But he can shoot. I know there are better overall role players, there are several on the Rockets, but there are few who are better at their role than Matt Bullard. Role-players who are willing to play there role and are good at it, are increasingly difficult to find in the NBA. We have one here, don't throw him out. All he does is shoot threes, thats all he's asked to do and he does it well. We don't have to pay a lot of money for him and he gets along with the rest of the team. ------------------ Founder and President of the Houston Homers Club(HHC) - Are you a homer? Join now!

Puedlfor, I am impressed with your restraint. Mango ------------------ Get it right or just don't do it! Resistance is futile....you will be assimilated.
It's not restraint. I just don't care if he thinks I'm a middle aged yuppie. Though I don't see anything wrong with being a fat-bellied bleacher creature. After all, where would Wrigley Field be without those. ------------------ Founder and President of the Houston Homers Club(HHC) - Are you a homer? Join now! The Rockets will be NBA champions.

Bullard is also a good utility player. He's not GREAT at any of the positions, but he is a servicable rebounder, not THAT horrible of a defender, and an excellent 3 point shooter. He has some offensive skills. Bull can play the C, PF, or SF. He's not a GREAT C or PF, but he draws his man away from the basket, and can hit threes at an excellent clip. Whenever, wherever Rudy needs Bull, he goes in and gives 110%. His 110% may not be as much as other players' -- he may not be Dirk Nowitzki-like, but it's solid enough for him to have lasted for a while in the league. He's kindof like our team's Billy Spiers. ------------------ "Up and down, inside out, outside in, some you lose some you win" -- DMB -> "Sweet Up and Down"
Vengeance Stupid fact about Billy Spiers, I read he was the most average man in baseball, stat-wise. Across the board his stats were pretty much the major league average. Weird huh? ------------------ Founder and President of the Houston Homers Club(HHC) - Are you a homer? Join now! The Rockets will be NBA champions. Believe.
the OlajuWons - The first sign of ignorance is resorting to personal attacks on someones physiology. You are a textbook case of "don't confuse me with the facts, my mind is made up". Aside from the fact that no one you mentioned does anything the Rocks need (please don't try to pass off Jim Jackson as great movement without the ball and lockdown "D"), you neglected 2 other little "facts" - McCloud is still on contract until 2003 and Parks hasn't MADE a 3pt shot since his rookie season (5 teams ago). I don't know (or care to know) much about you as a person, but your basketball IQ is pathetic. ------------------ GATER [This message has been edited by GATER (edited May 07, 2001).]
