    Playing while injured will do that to you.

    Seemed obvious that he wasn't healthy/ready to play in those kind of intense, playoff games.

    Luc was all kinds of screwed up. Luc shooting a three, holding his form, not realizing his shot got blocked by Green was emblematic of his whole playoff performance..:oops::(

    We talk a lot about whether we can "fix" Anderson. I'm wondering if we can "fix" Mbah A Moute. He was such a critical part of our rotation and losing him is a massively underrated blow that we took in the playoffs. I hope he is able to 'get right' for next season (and get a good contract, hopefully with us.)

    One of the worst threads I've ever seen. We all know he was playing hurt. What's the point of this thread?

    O% within 3' will do that to player's stats. Hope he gets better.

    Well if he was rested before the playoffs (like I said) and not injured in a meaningless game he would have played better.

    His horrible play might be the best thing to happen because of his free agency.

    If he played the way he did during the season he might command $30 mil for 3 years.

    To me this is a great thread because it clearly show Luc was injured something the Rockets didn't get create for. Warriors are seriously one of the luckiest teams ever.

    This thread probably means that D'Antoni should have not played him

    Luc getting hurt is not as big of a "what if" as Chris Paul's injury, but it's closer than you think. He was damn near flawless during the regular season. If we had him in the playoffs and his confidence wasn't shot, he would have been an enormous help against the Warriors.
