How can he be overrated on this board? According to everyone here, he is less than pond scum. He is not playing now, so nobody can blame losses on him.
Juwan Howard. We're just not ragging on him enough. Every post should be about how crappy this guy defends and how he jacks rebounds from teammates to boost his own stat. Every single post! I'll take Novak's bs defence if it means Juwan gets no minutes. If anyone says i'm wrong and Juwan is solid, then that just proves my point that we're not ragging on him enough.
See that?!?!?!? This is what I am talking about!!!! Juwan manages to screw up even in limited minutes yet people are still ready to defend him!!! Juwan, that sly fox, has fooled everyone. Juwan Howard, "But you were fooled. You thought it was all about KG, Tmac, and Duncan." Juwan Howard is overrated because he should not even get to sit on that Rockets bench! He is overrated because he gets minutes in practices!!
Einstein has nothing on ya! Nothing I tell ya!! Your post made me cry. They are tears of joy though. I know now that if anything happens to me, your brilliance will keep my legacy alive. *sob*
Its yao's 3 consecutive shoots followed by flush of 3s and defensive stops that got the rockets back winning 2pts... then when tmac start to break all his shots and gets blocked by marrion it just went downhill.
i think the thread should be called who we overrate. on this bbs every 2nd post is about vspan and novak. We think they are the next LBJ, NO, they are 2nd round picks -> rookies with great potential. give them time to grow. They need to learn the nba game and the system.
i think V-span and novak. People want to see these guys in the game, but Novak especially has no business being in a competitive NBA game right now, vspan = fouls, turnovers
I would say it's JVG, for his genius thought of starting a player who only deserves 5 minutes a game at this point.
wow! Yao on top. I watched the game and Yao did not the touches. All i can say is that u r way too funny!
Some Rockets Fans! those fans that blame everything they can find after a losing game is overrated true fans dont blame, they support.
I have to say Bonzi Wells. We signed this guy with great expectation and tonight he didn't even travel with the team to Phoenix. Did he really care about this team?
Our team is fine - we made a game out of it. We came off a back - to - back at home and traveled. I want to play them again when we have one day of rest. We can play with these guys when fresh. Our defense did a good job in the 3rd against a volatile offense. If we meet these guys in the playoffs we get one days rest usually between games. I do not know who is over rated...... I am pleased with our talent level now. Hard for me to complain- this is by far the best we have been in years and it is not all old *ss players. Go Rockets!!
Sorry for "feeding the animals,", but is sure seems the mantel for most overrated has been passed from Spanoulis to Novak and now to Bonzi. Basically, whoever doesn't play gets way overrated and hailed as the potential team savior that the team must play to win. "Spanoulis' D would have saved us from Rafer's horrible D and won us the game! JVG hates rookies!" "Novak's shooting would have saved us from Padgett/JUwan/Rafer's horrible shooting and won us the game and/or increase the margin of victory. JVG hates rookies!" "Bonzi's experience would have won us the game and saved us from the clueless play from Novak. JVG needs to get his head out of his ass and play him even if he's out of shape. This team needs Fat Bonzi to win!!!" Wonder when it will be JL3's term..
you obviously have serious problems that go far beyond simply hating. man, it's unreal. did he sleep with your wife or something? or is it just because jvg praises him from time to time?
Yao: Cant score on Kurt Thomas when he doesnt have the damn ball. Novak: 2-5 3pt is not superman but is better than Rafer/Battier. Is he any worse than Padgett? V-Span: Has Rafer/Head ever shut down the Suns(Nash)?
Well, to be fair to OP, Yao isn't blameless. He missed a couple of FTs, and a point blank layin with his left hand when the score was nearly tied. Most importantly, he got schooled by Kurt Thomas on boards. But Van Gundier is still a drama queen for starting a stupid thead like this each time Van Gundy is outcoached.
