The Thomas Robinson trade hasn't proved to me yet that it was a good move because he hasn't been playing much because of foul trouble. Donatas Montejunas is playing good as the new starter, scoring in double figures in two of the last three games. Since Montejunas is the new starter, I think that the Rockets should use Terrence Jones more because he brings more defense to the team down low. Chandler Parsons has been playing really well too, going 12 of 13 from the field for 32 points against the Mavs.
The Rockets have been playing very well lately and I hope they keep it up! They have just signed Aaron Brooks for the rest of the season. I think he will help the Rockets in shooting, playmaking, and provide depth. He will also help the younger point guards because he is a veteran NBA player. Aaron used to be one of my favorite players when he was on the Rockets and I think he will be a good addition. If the Rockets win and Golden State loses to Sacramento, the Rockets will have jumped up another spot. To get in to the playoffs, they need to watch out for Golden State, Utah, and Denver.
What are your thoughts on how McHale is going to work Brooks into the rotation, if at all?
ReplyDeleteWhat a heartbreaking loss to the Mavs tonight... That buzzer beater 3 at halftime from Lin should have counted! Anyway, I'm surprised that Beverly has been finishing the last few games because I think Lin is a much better playmaker. If Brooks plays at the level he did during his breakout year with the Rockets, he should be ahead of Beverly in the rotation. We'll see what McHale does... Hopefully not a repeat of last year's missed playoff run.
