Welcome Home!! - Now you can spend more time getting pulled over in Pearland with that wacky tobacky. :grin:
No telling what McHale will end up doing with the rotation. God knows, I'm still trying to figure this coach out, but the bottom line is that at least for the rest of this year, we actually are solid at the 5. What a change!
:grin: How much you want to bet he signs the $2.5M MLE in the offseason to close out his career for its last 2 seasons. Welcome, Marcus! It will be great to have excellent rebounding and shotblocking at the center position for a full 48 minutes a game instead of just 25.
At first I didnt like it considering how similar he is to Dalembert but now I am alright with it. I hope they dont play Camby and Dalembertat the same time. It shouldnt be that big of a problem considering they both play less than 25 mins to begin with.
I don't think they will, much. I can see it being useful to have both on the floor at the same time to shut down teams whose offense relies on two scoring-oriented 7 footers.
Looking at Camby's numbers this year makes me optimistic. Really productive on the defensive end and in regards to rebouding as well.
I am glad he is here. I believe he wanted to play here before he went to Portland. I wish we could have had him in his prime! He is still a good center and better than Dalembert. It is nice to think that we have 2 defensive minded Centers on our team. Les really wants to win now and Morey is trying to get him some noise in the playoffs! I am not sure if this is enough but it should definitely be exciting when the playoffs start.
At least now HOPEFULLY Mchale will be forced to stop that ridiculous 3-man rotation with the bigs. We should NEVER see Scola and Patterson on the floor at the same time AGAIN.
Yep, this will be the biggest impact, Scola nor Patterson is suited to play center. With a defensive presence behind them, both should play better. Camby has had a 20 rebound game this year, and rebounding has been a major weakness of the Rockets. He immediately becomes the best rebounder on the team.
