    i think jvg just doesnt think barry is 100%... im sure he'll get more and more playin time once jvg thinks he has fully recovered.

    I strongly believe that Bowen has compromising pictures of JVG, therefore being blackmailed into playing him...........

    All Barry has been able to gather is some of Clutch (the bear) and DaDakota (sorry buddy, had to pick on someone).......

    Bowen's hands are soft and moist. Barry's hands are callused and rough. If you were JVG, who would you allow to do the job?

    Barry said on 610 yesterday that he can shoot but it is the other end of the floor where he creates problems for the team.

    Can we send Barry and Bowen to a gene splicing lab where they merge the best of both into one creature? :D

    BTW last night he could not have done any worse on defense than the rest of the team in the 2nd half and we could have used his shot.

    If we could just get Barry, Bowen, and Swift merged into one... we would have a hall of famer for sure! :D

    shooting them threes, hustlin for the ball, and dunking like a monster on every play.

    Barry should be playing and Bowen should be only used during garbage time. What about Fitch?? Is he still with the Rockets or did we release the guy?? Is tomorrow the last day to add a veteran in time for the playoffs(Yes, I believe the Rockets will be in the playoffs this season).

    Didnt he play in the clipper game last week. He was slow. He would have been killed out there if had been put in last night. Barry is done.

    cause Ryan Bowen apparently has some dirty pictures of our brilliant coach.

    I'm wondering what Bowen does that Chuck Hayes doesn't do. Hayes seems like he could guard wing players at least as well as Bowen. Neither have a jump shot. And Hayes at least will rebound the ball well and play solid post defense.
