no offense but I wouldnt want a center to do it at all. The only reason Asik was able to get through like that was because they didn't expect him to do that. If he starts doing it more often, he's gonna get shut down. Watch the video, watch how slow he moves as he penetrates. God, I hate to say it, but this 'Chris Finch' Houston offensive philosophy where anyone can handle the ball rather than relying on the PG to bring up the ball is heavily flawed. The guards have the best handles for a REASON. There should not a reason why a SF / PF / C is bringing up the ball like that....
Sorry about that, I thought that video link is the same video as the "Asik goes pg on D Lee" video. In any case, I couldn't be referring to the Morris's dunk as I mentioned that Lee did not want to commit a 3rd foul at the end of the 1st quarter.
Watched this again - notice how Asik sticks the ball out in front of him during the drive like Harden and Lin? He's been learning.
That's the way you can tell Harden is a true team leader. You keep seeing other Rockets players using his techniques. He's teaching everyone.
I haven't been able to find the beautiful pass from Parsons to PPat towards the end of the 3rd quarter, anyone know where I can find it?
Dude, you need to relax a little and enjoy the play for what it was. A Center taken advantage of an out of position defender with no help behind him. Give Asik credit for recognizing the situation.
Indeed, this is what Asik needs to work on next. Asik has to improve his 3 ball so Howard can start next to Asik. I don't think a bench role for Howard is going to sit well with Howard's agent.
I agree, he is a selfless leader and it shows that he is not selfish with his skills and wants to help improve the team. He was teaching the whole team how to eurostep his first or second week in Houston.
