    Don't want to jinx it but because you asked. It might be his last stint in the NBA.

    I remember when D-Mo didn't look like much until he got plenty of meaningful minutes. I feel like Prig should be better. He needs some time and opportunity in my opinion.

    Honestly neither Prigioni or Shved was going to play any minutes for us without injuries.

    I'm just pissed we gave up two 2nds for a guy who isn't in the normal rotation.

    I just want to remind you that Prig used his BACK to defend the fast break multiple times the last few games.

    The only reason nobody interested to rip him is because of his senior citizen scrub status.

    Maybe Hablo is the one that is good at basketball.

    He is good at imaginary 4-pointers!

    We will see his true worth when Dwight returns.

    He has excellent court vision, runs the Pick'n'Roll to perfection, rips the ball, plays the passing lanes and can hit the 3 from the top & corners...really, he can...it just seems that he's forgotten how to shoot & lost a lot of confidence in his shot since coming to H-Town.

    His broken shot & lack of foot speed are his biggest weaknesses at the moment...if he can get that shot back (he's around .400 for career from memory) than he will be a great addition going into the post season.

    I think that he will get a lot more open shots in rhythm when Superman returns.

    We'll see if he's able to contribute these games while Bev is out.

    What can you say about our PG situation--2 37-yr-olds hahahaha

    I would fnd it funny except this may hurt us very badly moving forward.

    As much as I love prig's game, I don't feel to confortable giving him huge minutes, because of his defense. I looks like we go into zone coverage when he is on the floor and it just looks awful. I think offensively we improve a bit with Terry starting, but down the stretch it has to be harden, brew, and my dog Ariza holding down the lead. I think Prigs shot improves and everyone will love the guy dishing assist to Dwight.

    Prigs is now 7-31 (22.5%) on FG and 5-28 (17.8%) on 3s. :eek:
