    Hawkins hasnt played in the NBA long enough for a valid comparison..so heres the stats on offense this year..
    ANDERSON- ,418 sHOOTING PERCENTAGE
    .214 3 pt %
    ,647 free throw %
    8,8 ppg @ 38 min per game

    HAWKINS- .400 SHOOTING PERCENTAGE
    ,333 3pt %
    .667 free throw
    4.7 ppg @ 25 min per game

    These two seem pretty close right now....And Shandon hasnt shown the fire Hawkins is exhibiting,,in a long time !!!

    I never did figure out why ya'll didn't put the 'o' in shandon anderson? Maybe no offense? If that isn't it, then I am definitely confused.

    And Hawk can dribble which is something SA will never be able to do.

    i'll take credit for originating that one.


    shandn andersn has no "o". no "offense" in his game. dude can't hit his ass with either hand.


    hawkins on the other hand, appears to have a reliable jumper. oh, and he also is a better defender (more active) than shandn.

    I can confirm that - I remember that verse came up with that first, if I am not completely mistaken :).

    He's definitely a better defensive player than Shandon Anderson

    I hope Hawk works on his shooting though. I don't care if his scoring avgerage goes up any, I would just like him to be a 3 point threat. If Hawk could hit the jumper and the 3 he would be fighting for 6th man of the year.

    What more do you expect from Cat? I assume you are referring to his play from last night, not the whole season. Looking at the previous five games, I thought he played pretty well, especially considering he and Steve weren't getting much help offensively. Plus he's playing ironman minutes.

    I know I don't see why people get mad at the Cat because he shoots the ball. He only shoots 18 shots a game and he should shoot that much because he is one of the Rockets best scoring opions. He shoots becasue he makes his shoots. Man the guy has a bad game and anyone jumps all over him.
