Thanks for the post. I tried endlessly to find this game online. Seems as though CBS do not want it being watched. A real shame!
Canaan 43 and 35 and I have half of the clutch forum arguing against me that he isn't an "emerging player".
all I can say is that probably Canaan and Covington were still psychologically affected by the mother team's collapse
Why? I think it's great to try out new concepts and coaches. Will provide interesting data to learn from.
1) D-League. 2) RGV's pace allows for crazy high point totals both individually and as a team. 3) RGV jacks up a LOT of threes, again point totals are inflated. 4) Canaan is a focal point of that offense, something he won't be here. So... less touches, less impact. He's not bad, but I wouldn't characterize a player as "emerging" from watching D-League games. From the few Rockets games I've seen though, he has a lot of potential and meshes well with our lineup.
