Mid-Season Report Card

[moofs]

James Harden: A-- - Shooting percentages have dropped from earlier in the year, needs to get TOs down, but not doing bad for his first year as a centerpiece with limited help
Omer Asik: B - Still needs to improve a bit more, but his shooting %'s snuck out of the 40s while I wasn't looking. Has seemed a bit gassed the last several games I've seen.
Jeremy Lin: C-
Chandler Parsons: A+ - What else do you want out of a second year #38 pick?
Patrick Patterson: L - As in, Learn to rebound, not suck, or anything else that can earn you that court time you're getting. His redeeming qualities I can think of off the top of my head are: he isn't Stromile Swift or Antoine Walker.
Marcus Morris: D - Improvement from last year, but still not so great
Carlos Delfino: C+ - Adequate for a journeyman backup SG
Toney Douglas: C+/B-, as much as it pains me to say it after his first impression.
Greg Smith: B+ - Easily our most productive player on a per minute basis. Why he isn't logging more minutes boggles the mind.
Donatas Motiejunas: Who?
Terrance Jones: DNP CD (or KM, anyway)
Patrick Beverley: Haven't seen him yet
James Anderson: Haven't seen him yet
Cole Aldrich: D- - Thought he might be worthwhile but hasn't shown anything yet
Royce White: HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAA F-----------
Coach Kevin McHale: C- - done a decent job of getting this team to gel from scratch, but hasn't tried a PF alternative when it's clear that our current two options are pathetic. This had better be a trade strategy...
GM Daryl Morey: A++ - keep it rocking, good wizard.

And there I thought you tried to rig the voting system! Never mind me reporting moofs for spam then Mr. E.

Beverly- A+++++++++++. The real star of the team we are saving until the playoffs so teams won't know to quintuple team him.

That's right . Just to be clear Zubby, A+++++++++++ equals close to 10,000 so even with Sasaki's egregious C voting, Beverley still rates out well over 9000.

Overall so far the midterm averages according to the board:

Harden = A, 4.00 (some **** ALMOST ruining Harden's perfect score with an A- but Guy saved it )
Asik = A-, 3.6
Lin = C+, 2.5
Parsons = A, 3.7
Patterson = C, 2.1
Morris = B-, 2.6
Douglas = C+, 2.5
Delfino = B-, 2.8
Smith = B+, 3.5
McHale = B-, 2.9
Morey = A, 3.8
White = F, 0.0 Probation
Aldrich = D+, 1.5


Overall Team score of a 2.7 solid B-... not bad


Not including White & Aldrich scores we get a gpa of 3.1 a strong B.

Something seems off here. We have a good grade but this team has been average to below average all season. Something seems off here

if everyone did it like i did, it is judged off of each persons expectations and the players role on the team mixed with a little of how they have performed and quite a bit of homerism.....

[90sAllDecade]

Based on my preseason expectations:

Harden A
Asik A
Lin C
Parsons B+
Patterson C
Morris C
Douglas B
Delfino B+
Smith B+
McHale B
Morey A

The rookies haven't played enough for a grade.

People giving Patterson & Morris, B's
Delfino, Douglas gettin B's wtf

Lin got a lot more B's than I would of thought.


But overall looks about right imo team is overachieving, they are about the same total as last year and I said last years team was much better.

I said we would miss playoffs and with Harden said 14th pick... Lakers shouldn't be this bad we should be 9th.

IMO we still miss playoffs... **** is gettin real and the Lakers are coming. You know any day now David Stern is gonna "make things right"

Joey Crawford gonna be reffing all our games, phantom calls, Harden gonna quit getting Kevin Martin's.
Maybe someone might "Tanya Harding" Asik in the tunnel . Parsons & Lin get into a messy breakup


IDK but believe me its coming, you've all been warned.

[moofs]

I had the Lakers pegged at a 48 win max if they stayed healthy.

That obviously hasn't happened. They might be lucky to break 40.
Who was it in the 90s that put together a team with a bunch of old guys that was supposed to be great and ended up sucking?
(no, I'm not referring to the 96-98 Rockets, at least I don't think I am...)

[rocketseagles07]

These are things I don't understand about rockets fans. Why are we still bringing up when Chandler was drafted? He's much better than the 38th pick, so when he was drafted doesn't matter. He's a starter in the NBA, he should be judged the same as any other NBA starter.... A+ is way to high of a grade and I like chandlers game a lot

I thought we were grading how he has expressed his love for Lin

I said A- because I haven't seen them kiss in public yet or call each other pet names in interviews

Lin got a B--- because he doesn't show as much affection in public (mostly probably because his intense Christian views demonize homosexuality)

[6_Rings]

Lin should get a B across the board since his production is commendable considering he's playing with a very ball dominant backcourt partner. Plus i see he dictates the Rockets tempo.
