i have watched Trevor Ariza preseason and the first game and i just think this guy cannot dribble the ball at all and paying him around 5mil a year was dumb of the rockets, all he does for this team is really nothing except get in the way......not worth what they paid....
This post, coupled with your signature is nearly enough to put you on my ignore list.... ...and the overreaction begins.
definitely overpaid for him, I don't think anyone would say otherwise. He is a nice role player, nothing more than that. A guy that can start on occasion or come off the bench.
In the grand scheme of things, the MLE is not much to pay, especially for a starter. Call it "good value".
I do agree that his signing never strike me as a wow unless we are trading Battier and T-Mac. The idea of Ariza as a scorer is not a great one. For that purpouse i would have pursued a more offensive oriented player.
Ahhhh!! Les, sell the team! FIRE Daryl Morey! FIRE Rick Adelman! Trade Yao! Trade T-Mac! Trade Brooks! Trade Scola! Trade Ariza! Pack the team up and move!
So, what do you expect for 5 mil anyways? As of now, he's playing a little worse than Batman who's paid more than he is, and he'll definitely improve particularly when Tracy returns. Not really a bad signing.
yeah, I was hoping low expectations from this season might allow me to come back to the GARM. it appears not..
That's where you should have paused and re-evaluated your post....i dont get these threads...i mean, at least lie to us and tell us you've been a long time fan, watched him since he was in diapers...don't come straight out and tell us you've only watched him for a month... Yes he's not exactly tim hardaway when he dribbles, but the guy isn't a bad pick up at that price..
I have a feeling that this person is pulling a prank on us, and satirizing how everyone always overreacts after a bad game. The reason I have this notion is because they changed their sig. to something even more ludicrous after I said something about it, and they also have a pretty low post count.
