Houston Rockets vs Mempis Grizzlies

[Shepseskaf]

Young team, but these guys can ball. Lots of these guys are what I call "ballers". They have a natural feel for the game. Harden, Chandler and even Lin...those guys are ballers. And you have the defensive pillar and rebounding machine in Omer. Delfino for 3 point shooting. Douglas playing well off the bench as well as Smith. Morris is very solid as a PF.

I'm not sure they have more of a "natural feel for the game" than any other team, but the thing that really stands out is that they're really pushing the ball and using their young legs to run teams out of the gym. Using that strategy, and not giving up a ton of TOs, is working very well for them.

Conley is playing Great, He sacrifice personal stats to make the team better, he can definitely score a lot if wanted with today's pg offense. Dude is fast, tight, nice handle, sweet shot and nice feel for the hoop.

Gotta mention, I really like Drexler as a commentator. He's very supportive of the team, yet refreshingly blunt in his assessments of their shortcomings.

Conley is a stud...like him a lot as a player.

You should become a Rockets fan. Only Rockets fans can like Drexler.

Haha too funny. Rockets fans have a thread devoted to Drexlerism...

Most Rockets fans don't though.

What's wrong with Drexler? I was a fan when he was playing. I have no opinion of him off the court.

Well, I'm a fan of their style. I can say that.

Drexler was always one of my favorite players, so I have the right to pay him a compliment now and then.

He is not a play by play or a color commentator. Some games are unbearable. Every once and a while he will say some gems though. Clubbing baby seals seems to be the standout.

Not a talented speech guy, say awkward stuff all the time, and not very informative. and terrible sense of humor. But he is alot better this year. Stay on topic better at least/

tl;dr

Drexler is a biased know nothing.

Shows how much I follow Drexler...I had no idea he was even commenting these Rockets games...and I've seen more than half the Rockets games this season.

No, he's a Hall of Fame player who understands the game better than most, and can provide insight on what this young team needs to do to raise their level of play.

I always enjoy listening to him. Not sure what others are crabbing about.

The guy does not even watch other teams. He knows little about players and always makes vague statements while passing them off as insight. He is a Hall a Famer who understands the game though.
