The Suns scare me a bit because of how physical they are. You can always find a reason to be worried, I guess, but they do seem to have good...
"Counterproductive." That's not really the right word. It's pretty clear that you follow a team because of emotional attachment to players....
Houston was actually a great situation for Collier. He was a part of an effort to design a team around Francis. Francis was supposed to be...
Actually, he's exactly the opposite. He's not a great 3 point shooter, though he is in streaks. He is a very good penetrator, but that's sort of...
It pretty much has to be both, doesn't it? Playing inside-out doesn't work unless you've got a damned fine player inside. But the ball has to...
Or, turning it around, what's with the hyper-attachment to one player? I'll be here if the Rockets released the entire damned team tomorrow and...
I'm glad we won this one. Didn't expect it to happen - part of the problem with the Rockets defense, is that it collapses so much. The Grizzlies...
Very interesting thread. I think some people are really overlooking the imporant part of it. This isn't an insult to Cuttino - it's just that...

There are two separate issues, here. 1. Should the Rockets not trade Francis for loyalty based reasons even if trading him makes them a better...
Because we all know it's impossible to ever acquire another scorer. :rolleyes: If Francis is traded, he'll hopefully be traded for someone...
Oh goodness. You don't even know which stats are relevant. You know what precisely that means? It means that when Steve plays abnormally...
JVG isn't making commentary on how a player is doing. If you think his comments are made according to how a player is doing, you're completely...
In terms of pure shot? Maybe. Free throw % and three point % are pretty good marks of pure shooting ability. Yao doesn't shoot 3's, but...
I think it's actually a sad sign of how short term the collective BBS memory is. Steve has 1 bad game? Trade steve :mad: Steve has 1 good...
No. It really, really doesn't. The model outlines a more rapid learning curve for Memphis. It doesn't give reasons. It doesn't directly...
Wow. Thanks. I hate doing that.
Yes, actually. A team with two players as different as Francis and Yao actually do have to have an established pecking order. "Franchise...
edit above: "That runs like anything other than a train wreck..."
You're joking right? 1. Even you, the biggest FOF to ever live save Juugie, surely cannot claim that Francis runs a fastbreak that looks...
