You are confusing objectivity with favortism. Martin's defensive woes have been greatly exagerated, and his contributions greatly diminished.

I will not participate in a lynch mob to run a player out of town. The same **** happens every year. The fan base has to pick a player to run out of town. Happens every year.

Not sure who we ran out last year, but it looks like the team made an improvement over last year.
Unless you mean McGrady? I was a huge McGrday fan, HUGE! But I was all for him getting traded.

When its time to go it time to go, Martin's time was a while ago, its time to flip him for something.

Hell maybe we can get Turner now, and if Dragic leaves he would be the perfect replacement. He could actually start alongside Lowry & one of Parsons or Lee.

In the beginning of the season i would have agreed with you but not so much anymore. I was ready for Patrick Patterson to be the starting 4 because of his defense and he is capable on offense as well. But Scola has really come on as the season progressed. We all know he has a reliable jumper and is capable in the post. I have also seen some good defense from Scola late in the season. Seriously, good defense.

I think a lot will depend on how we perform in the playoffs, how individuals perform in the playoffs. Then we'll get into the whole free agency thing and the draft. I think the expendable player in houston is Kevin Martin.

Could not have said it any better myself.

Like I said Martin is expendable. Lee has to be the starter for the rest of this season and into the playoffs. Martin will be a free agent next season and I doubt they will pay Martin while they have Lee. So you should get something for Martin while you can. $12 mil expiring next year and it is not like his career is done.
