He sucks, absolutely. Undersized, no handles, no court vision. He doesn't look like he's gonna get stronger - he's probably hit his ceiling. I'd trade him to a team for a first round pick, then sign a FA.
He's been with the team more than two years dumbass. He's a sucky player, always has been, regardless of the coaching.
Head gets owned on defense every game by the opponents 2's because he is undersized and slow... even though he doesn't get major minutes, he still hurts the team.. people overlook his major weakness because they are superficial fans who only focus on his 3 point shooting while ignoring everything else he does (horribly)
He is fine with his salary. But he doesn't know who he is and always do something beyond his ability. Someone got to give him a lesson.
Luther head just epitomizes what is wrong with the rockets bench. Flaky shooter, gets burned on D, turnover machine. That's how you lose.
I would rather trade james than head. Head is just as a good shooter esp at 3 point range if not better than james. Head's handles on the basketball as gotten better. Head shoots less contested shots than james, who tends to jack up alot of those.
Head plays over Steve is beyond my understanding. Head makes poor passing decision, has no handle on the ball, can't play a lick of defense, and a turnover machine.
What the hell are you guys talking about? Luther has been solid the past couple games, whenever he gets solid minutes. Last year, he was probably our 4th best player, too. He's not doing anything particularly wrong, but he's just not exactly a great playmaker. He's great at spreading the floor, and his ball-handling has done nothing but improve of late. He's only sometimes a problem on D, but Jackhouse beat him in the post maybe once tonight.
Luther is an ok player, but there are others that can do what he does already on the team, he is redundant. DD
WTF is up with Luther HEAD? Maybe he's thinking about HEAD or something because his HEAD seems to not be into the game. I don't see a bright future aHEAD for Luther. Maybe he should just HEAD home.
Send either Head, Alston, Mike James, Francis or all of them for Steve Blake or Derek Fisher. We need a smart PG who doesn't turn the ball over and can hit a few outside shots.
