That was some pretty good defense by T-Will in his first minutes as a Rocket. Great movement. Made about three passes that were missed shots so no assists.
Did it ever occur to you guys that MAYBE Adelman has brought him along just fine -- that if he'd played earlier when he didn't know the system as well, he might have sucked? RA plays him and he looks pretty good, and you all say that RA was WRONG? WTF?
No, everyone knew this kid was the second coming of both Michael Jordon and Magic Johnson combine! Rick knew that, but he and his evil team of assistant coaches wanted to hold the Twill back. The rest of the Rockets knew this, so they purposely lost this game to show off how amazing Twill is. With Twill's amazing leadership Houston squashed a 20 point lead and regained the number 8 spot in the west... Duh.
Fair point, but I expect him to get consistent minutes now. Its plain as day that he is a better option over Budinger.
We have too many wings......we have 5 legitimate rotation wings. Shane Cbud Martin Lee TWill You just can't play everyone....I like what I saw out of him, great vision, aggressive O and D, but who is going to sit? DD
I think the answer is pretty clear at this stage, unless of course RA remains solid with his rotations. Martin and Lee at the 2, Shane and TWill at the 3. Bud rides the pine. Of course, seeing TWill's court vision, the guy is definitely capable of playing multiple positions, so I won't be surprised if we play the Lee/Twill/Bud line up with TWill running the point possibly.
I don't think it is all that clear, but if that is what Adelman does than fine. I found it very interesting to see him at the PG spot, that would be amazing if he can actually be a PG.......a big PG...... A guy with that size at the point, man talk about a massive advantage.... If he could i would trade KMart too, and put Lee in there with him......as 2 very athletic changeable players at the PG and SG positions......Kmart might be enough with another asset like CBud or Hill etc to net us that Superstar player we need...... However, I am not holding my breath on that. DD
I think the answer is to include AB , the MIP of last year in a Yao trade, put CBud in the trade as well. Hopefully, we will get a decent C in return, somebody like Jason Thompson.
Basketballminds of the coaching staff need to hurry and figure it out...he's the best two way player we have on the team. My only question is... If we did trade for a superstar that didnt know our system would RA sit him this long? Battier struggling...not giving us anything on offense? Sub Budinger struggling on offense? Sub And so on all the way to the Pg position cause he can play all 3 RAs scheduled subbing methods is just frustrating and too predictable.
Trade Brooks and Bud for a center. Lowry/Lee/TWill Martin/Lee Battier/TWill Scola/Hayes Miller/New Center
he has some great court vision and he has great body control. His passes were very crisp and looked like fast balls, i wonder if he could play the point so we wont get punished soo much by bigger pg.
I was excited when we got him, and I'm still excited. However, I don't think he's been, er, unleashed. I think he's probably ten games away from getting 20 minutes a game.
