    Dragic is the one going right a lot of times. He is always looking for a steal and getting into the lane.

    Jeremy was looking more for his shot

    Thanks Clutch.

    BTW, I like McHale. He really likes to give a pep talk to lift his players' spirits.

    - Morris will have problems playing the 3 right now, I don“t think he is a starter Today, but I like his upside at the 3 spot.
    - Like me some active Thabeet, tho he could not stay on the floor for 2 mins, dude was gassed quick.
    - T-Will has the tools, I just hope that he does not camp at the 3pt line just cause he improved his shot, he needs to be aggressive, because he can get to the the rim at will
    - I think Flynn and Hill will surprise some people this year
    - Still think we have problems on the D side of the ball.

    I love these vids, mad love Clutch.

    They are definitely still trying to run last year's offense, I saw some Budinger cutting through screens like Kmart would last year, and They did that pass it to the high post three men corner offense a couple of times.

    Good effort from everyone actually, it looked pretty organized and everyone played super hard, I'm satisfied, we just need a center.

    Flynn dribbles way too much. No ball movement when he's the point guard. It's tough to watch really. Lin is really active and from what I saw last year with the Warriors, that's the usual with that guy -- I love him.

    Scola would have killed everyone on the low post if he played.

    Thanks Clutch!

    Did you guys see the traveling violation the Martin got? Couldn't see how he traveled. Is this one of the new rules??

    I'd move Lin up to the third PG instead of Flynn. He's just better suited for the 1. I don't know what to make of Flynn-- he had so much talent but something about his game just seems weird, like it doesn't mesh or something.

    He doesn't mesh cause we got Martin trying to score.... Flynn would do some what decent if he had a defensive SG playing beside him.. not saying he would do that much better but that's my case.

    Pat, don't listen to them haters, I'll back you on the Chipotle!

    Really starting to think that Parsons is going to be a lost draft pick; he's getting the Carl Landry treatment right now, since it looks like he's not participating w/out a contract, but the preseason starts in 3 days. Front court depth looks really shaky right now, but I have to remember that it just means that Hill and Patterson are pretty much guaranteed 25 min per night.

    Jeremy Lin might never be more than a 10 min per game player, but I think those will be some solid 10 minutes, as long as he's not put into a Luther Head situation where he has to check Kobe or Harpring. Sadly, don't think there's a place on the roster for him.

    If this is any indication of the NBA this year, there are going to be a whole lot of moving picks this year from guys who are pretty rusty. It's also going to be some ugly, ugly ball probably until the all-star break.

    Sorry guys ... I need to remove this video. It's too long, I'm told by the Rockets. I have to whittle it down to 2 minutes. Sorry.

    Understood. Glad I got a chance to view it first. Can they put it on Rockets.com?

    Ah, right!

    He's always the last person I look for... maybe because I know what to expect from him.

    McHale was talking about Parsons the other day.. Saying he was the 3rd tallest player on the team.

    I missed the video. Your observations sound about right.

    I am really disturbed about the thought of T-Will being included into our rotation. He is trigger happy on jump shots, and the ball sticks in hands. I dont see any reason for him to make plays when we have Lowry.

    I always knew Morris wont be a legit NBA 3. There is too much talk of him posting up smaller guys and spot up shooting. Thats not what we need from a 3. He cant beat guys off the dribble from top of the key and finish at the rim like a normal 3, nor does he have the ball handling skills to lead a fast break full court with the ball and finish like a normal 3 can.

    I always knew Thabeet and Hill were'nt NBA quality.
