Even healthy Alston's not the penetrator that Brooks is. That's why the Rockets got him--insane speed. Alston may be the best PG the Rockets...
Brooks can penetrate, and when he does he can find the open guy for easy points in the paint. Alston just doesn't have the same speed. The...
Somebody will correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the players union won't let you do that.
Technically though I think it was Carlisle who pointed out that Okur got away with the shove on Landry. Also, Mauer was the ref closest to...
Williams torched Alston twice in a row in the fourth though, so I'm not sure there's a big difference. And Brooks penetrates.
Alston showed some guts, but the OP is exactly right. He got into a pissing match with Williams and wasted a couple of offensive possessions....
I really have to question whether that was a real rebound by Okur. It looked to me like he got away with a shove on Landry.
2-4 from the field, 3-4 from the line? Maybe they should have gotten the ball in to the post players a few more times instead of jacking up the...
No more crap about how Aaron Brooks shouldn't be in the game because he can't guard Williams. BTW, how does ABsolute zero sound for Brooks?...
If anything it's probably just an indication of how important the point guard position is to the team. I don't think it's Alston per se. If the...
I'm pretty sure that should have been a foul on Okur on that last rebound. Also, T-Mac knocked it out of Landry's hand. Bad luck all around....
If they called that two handed shove on Okur it would be Landry at the line with 5.5 seconds left.
Team ball has disappeared. Guys just dribble and shoot, with no passing of any kind.
He's a rookie. I really have questions about that ref.
The good in the 4th: With T-Mac on the bench the Rockets have been looking to penetrate. The bad: Way too much individual basketball the last...
Nobody is going to beat the Jazz shooting jump shots from the outside. Strangely enough, that's just what the Rockets are trying to do. Their...
Sad, but you can make an argument for this.
Scola's two for four, Landry's zero for one. They're the closest thing the Rockets have to a game in the paint right now. They need more touches...
Dude, you're full of it. The writer in question covers the Rockets. When he went off to cover the bowl games people on the Chron boards were...
You're the one claiming that you read something where they specifically deny these rumors. I don't remember anything like that, either as a...
