Sure but Little is the best defender on that team, he is pesky and can get in Hardens head, thats the only way you can defend him, otherwise he gonna score 45 anyway
23.5% from 3 on high volume.
Is Capella playing?
I’m not sure I held your opinion on here in high regard before, but to say that the league MVP from just a couple seasons ago isn’t even a “good 2nd option” is just laughable bro. I know you are a basement expert on all things basketball, but I’m curious how many league GMs and coaches feel this way. HONESTLY?
1. I really dont care what you think about my opinion.
Do you think opposing coaching staffs hold him as in low regard as you?
"Nobody except Houston wanted him" Really? No other teams ?
This post got me to thinking...... You’re #2 post is interesting to me. How do you measure the amount of knowledge of “basketball”. Does a guy who grew up playing everyday in the parks and watching games everyday like myself know about the game. Does a guy who has NEVER played the game, but reads stats on the internet every night know about that game? What if you dad was a coach......or you watch NBATV every night. WHat if you talk about it on the radio, do you know more than somebody who doesn’t? How do you measure knowledge of the game itself. Just curious, because you used the term “I’m SURE I know more than you”
What does playing the game, talking about the game on air, or watching a lot of NBA have to do with knowing the game?
Go back and read again son. That’s what I’m asking.
Woosh, there it is.
Westbrook is shooting 21% from 3, 69% from the FT line and is sort of in the way on the Rockets. When he takes a game off, the Rockets look fine without him. I'm not sure Westbrook is even an All Star this year. At the moment, the 6 guards would be Harden, Lillard, Doncic, Booker, Mitchell, and PG13. Would you pick Westbrook ahead of any of them? What about Wiggins (if you consider him a SG), Hield, or Ja Morant? Westbrook may be the 9th or 10th best guard in the West. And when Curry and Klay Thompson come back, he'll be even lower on the totem pole. His MVP days are behind him.
Nas would foul out in 4 min.
Dame usually brings his best against Westbrook.
So we are better off with him playing tonight. We have a better chance at winning?
Was just thinking about this. So the official team statement said he wouldn't play BEFORE the Pels game. The NOLA game is the second of a back to back. We won't get into the hotel tonight there until 2am. There will be no practice tomorrow. You think he would play without even having a practice with us? We will have a practice or shoot around in Milwaukee. My guess (and I have no inside info on this) but pure speculation, I think he plays Thursday against the Bucks.
They wouldn't have signed Melo without the intent of starting him. Kind of a slap in his face if he can't get in above Mario/Tolliver/Little. I think him starting is inevitable.
Let's see what Terry decides to do. I just think he'll want to put Melo with Dame as much as possible. Our second unit isn't really stable enough, and he might just freelance out there (which is not what we want from Melo). What we want, and why I think we signed him, is to be a credible threat for Dame to not have to go 1 on 4.
