Thomas Robinson traded to the Rockets

[QUOTE=chips93]true, but the way the rockets have been playing, they have always had a shooter at the 4.

if they are gonna play asik and robinson together, either robinson will have to change his game (more jumpshots), or the rockets will have to change their offensive strategy, less spacing, less 3pt shooting, and a more traditional offense.[/QUOTE]

yeah but I think that's because of ppat, he never rolls in, always drifts out for the pick and pop...

When Lin runs the pick and roll with greg smith, smith always rolls to the hoop.

Now that Lin is shooting better, the spacing should be OK without a stretch four. Not a big fan of the PF taking threes anyway unless they're Dirk, and even Dirk admits he takes more twos then threes.

Is he going to start straight away for the Rockets?

Who else do they have at the 4 spot?

Houston isn't going to win a title running their current system. They ran that offense because that's the players they had. I bet it actually drives McHale crazy watching his team chuck all these 3's... but they simply don't have a post threat.

[QUOTE=FreezingTsmoove]Goddamn Kings organization is run by lunatics. Not only did they draft Jimmer in the top 10 they draft T-Rob and give up on him. Then when they hit an absolute goldmine in I.T they sign Aaron Brooks to take up his minutes.[/QUOTE]


they actually thought that they were potentially putting a play-off team together by signing all them role players to go along with the young talent. instead, the kings are looking like the old rockets (like the suns), with demarcus cousins.

They might not win a championship but it is making the owner happy. :lol :lol

Les has always wanted the Rockets to be a running team, he's been pushing Morey hard to make this a running team and he finally got his wish this season. I definitely don't expect a championship with this system until we develop/sign/trade for a legit post player, but at least it is fun to watch.

I'm guessing that this will be our rotation.

Asik/Smith
Motiejunas/Robinson/Anxiety Trooper
Parsons/Delfino/Jones
Harden/Garcia
Lin/Beverly

Don't worry, we still got plenty of tweener PF's.

Add Howard to that List next yr.

That nikka jumping drowning ship called Los Angeles Fakers.

A core of Lin, harden,parsons, Robinson, asik to go along with cheap team option contracts of delfino, Greg smith. Then they have guys like Terrence jones and montajuinus and white. One or two of those guys might turn into a solid rotation players.
They also have excellent cap space with parsons also being so cheap.
