That's why posting stats isn't always productive

All you have to do is watch a few minutes of any of his games to see that he stifles ball movement and has weird shot selection

Even rockets fans will tell you this

With that said he's still top three at his position

just the defense. if it weren't for the abysmal defense, he'd still be in the same conversation.

And that what I was saying last year dude still needs to grow as a player before just giving him the key to the city. Dude nice but he still have flaws he needs to polish to upgrade his game. Still think the Rockets should have won that playoff series against the thunder.

Kobe played the fourth quarter with the fracture. He hyperextended his knee in the third. How did the training staff let him get back on the floor period?

I was born/raised in Houston and have followed the Rockets when I was a tyke and they had Hakeem. I'd disagree with any Rockets fan that said the same about being a "black hole". I'm also not a stat nerd, boxscore ***** or Hollinger camp guy :lol: I can type a paragraph about this, but left at at the fact he earns 6 assists alongside the 25 ppg he puts up.


and I'm not even sure what "weird" shot selection is. Can't tell if that's bad or good. He takes some bad shots, but for a 24 y/o guy who your offense is running completely through, I'll take it. Literally no one else has the ability to do it at the level he does. And he's 3rd behind KD and Lebron in Free Throw attempts. i started to go on and on but it will probably fall on deaf ears.

so yea, ill just leave it at yall are smoking dope calling him a black hole. i dont hear people call curry a black hole

Westbrook
Carmelo
Rudy Gay
Monta Ellis (until this year)

are guys i think of when someone says "black hole"

just b/c a guy hasn't played good defense for the first half of a season doesn't mean you cant give the keys to the franchise. he's 24 years old, damn. and he's shown the ability to play defense. Yall need to be firing off on the front office/coaching staff if anything for not holding him accountable.

and maybe they should have won that series, but KD is the 2nd best player on the planet. They did better than expected, and I expect them to do about the same maybe better this year. after all this is only 1/2 of the way through the FIRST year of this current team assembly. Harden is good

Alright, well a lot of folks must smoke dope then. Weird shot selection meaning he takes contested shots more than he should or dribbles out the shot clock more than he should. No need to force shots as much as he does. Again, still elite but he he has weaknesses. Defense and shot selection I'd say are up there
