I'm a fan of both Lin and Beverly. Bev is a very good defender, active and energetic. As Lin's offensive game, Bev's defense has still room for...
don't worry about it. Garcia will be a FA since 6mil eats up too much cap. On the market, he'll get a contract 3-4mil per year. The Rockets then...
no. JSmooth is just a fair-weather shiny player who will get overpaid for that. Hopefully not by the Rockets.
no need to pay 2.5mil for a zero-min bench player.
- Bledsoe is slightly better than Beverly. You'll see him offensively challenged once he becomes the full time starter. - No team is so stupid...
McHale is an OK coach, but I'm not convinced he is the right one for a Houston team with great playoff ambitions. - He let Harden play iso...
I think Lin showed at least as much as Nash in his first year in Dallas as side kick to a young Dirk. But if Gary Payton then or Paul now were...
Harden has superstar potential and absolutely should do a lot of isos just to sharpen his skill. That being said, one trait he showed is extremely...
:grin::grin::grin:
Do you have evidence of a whole lot broken plays due to OKC's preparation? It was painful to see so many Harden iso ending up with passing the...
For Brooks to be effective, he needs the ball in his hand a lot. But his D is really bad.
Dwight and Omer can coexist. Paul makes Lin redundant. The perfect deals would be, sign Howard as FA and trade Lin/Garcia/DMo to Clipps for Paul.
With more experience Beverly could be a Derek Fisher type of starter on some team. But if fans want to see more Harden isos next year than there...
Greg Smith just was overwhelmed under pressure. It's imperfect and unbalanced roster in the evolution process. I wished McHale had guts to play...
And I recall only one time that Lin was scored on straight up. Other times it's because Lin had to help out in the paint and couldn't cover back...
And that's the reason McHale stuck with Lin in 2nd half even though Brooks was much better on offense. He played great D out there. Lin was...
I'm not saying he is Stockton level now. I only repeated what some prominent guys like Magic and Payton said in the media. Lin has some basic...
Beverly is Jarret Jack, Lindsey Hunter type of energy player with Bobby Jackson as his upside.
Beverly is a Bobby Jackson, Jarret Jack, Kenyon Dooling type of high-energy great-defense PG. And JLin is a Mike Bibby, Dragic, George Hill type...
I say Brooks outcoached himself. 1. That hack-a-Asik move was extremely bad. 2. Without Westbrook, they cannot outpace Rockets at small ball....
