10/24 PRESEASON GAME 6: Rockets vs Spurs Game Thread

[LarsV8]

lol pop

[inquisitive]

the asik/howard combo is looking much better...i wonder how motie and tjones are feeling though...they didnt get any burn tonite.

Asik is a huge difference maker with this second unit. If they can learn to score together effectively, we could start to blow teams out when both team's benches comes in.

Does anybody know our vs. the Spur's points in the paint?

I really thought Jones was going to be our starting 4 this season. Is it just the gameplan and new rotation McHale has been trying out the past few games? Or is Jones just not that good?

is canaan scoreless in the preseason so far?

he can be a good 4th option but as the 5th option on the floor with Howard/Harden/Parsons/Lin
he needs to do more of the little thing except scoring
still need lot of work in shooting
look like he can't really score unless it's a dunk/layup

[Tomas_11]

Canaan plays like a poor man's version of Aaron Brooks...

[MaxRider]

baynes is killing inside without howard and asik on the floor of course

more like poor man luther head
as least brooks was good in preseason

Rockets are a fun team to watch. Asik played a little better tonight.

Team is very deep, can't wait until the season starts.

Also, wonder who is getting cut?

not that hard to know
who hasn't play in the last 2 games?
JONES!!!!

Any chance of last minute trade?

I'm worried for Greg Smith getting cut.

i'm 95% sure it's going to be Williams and Covington

Howard/Asik looked very good tonight. Duncan took a ton of uncontested open shot .... Its a good thing he's a mediocre mid range shooter. Against team with non jumpshot threatening frontcout, Howard/Asik can shut down the paint. The Spurs were litterally scared to take shots inside.

[Guy986]

No matter who start at the 4. I have a feeling Casspi is the one that will log the most minutes. He just fits our gameplay exactly.

[Don Draper]

Dominant performance tonight even if it was preseason. Our defense made the Spurs offense look pedestrian.

No Manu. No Kawhi. Very little Parker.

[MKL]

Yeah, the Spurs don't try hard in preseason, or even the regular season. LOL

It's all about the playoffs for the old vets.
