Wiggins and Bennett are looking great this summer so far, both shooting the three very well. We also drafted a three point specialist, but he will probably need more time to develope so yeah I'll count him out. Unless something happens we should be adding Ray Allen and Mike Miller who both can shoot very well. Irving and LBJ can also do it.. Irving can fill it up in practice and I'm assuming actually having a presence on the team better than him will help open things up a lot more.. Not to mention competent coaching schemes and guys who are known for getting more out of less. Lue has coached up some great guards.

A couple of things:

1) Summer league games mean almost nothing. If you think you can reasonably predict someone's success in the NBA based upon summer league games, you've probably never watched them before

2) Wiggins and Bennett have played a total of two(?) games in the summer league. In the first, Wiggins went 1-7 from three. So how exactly do you know that he's shooting it well?

Rockets 2nd round draft pick Nick Johnson had a triple-double. Their PG troubles are over! Summer league!

RustShack · 07-13-2014, 04:17 PM

Summer leagues mean a little bit of something, other wise they wouldn't waste their time doing them. And Bennett didn't look good last year, he showed up in bad shape. They are saying he's in the best shape of his life this year, so yeah there's reason to be encouraged.

ChiefsCountry · 07-13-2014, 04:17 PM

SOB the Heat brought Chalmers back.

Rudy tossed tigger's salad · 07-13-2014, 04:18 PM

I just checked. Wiggins and Bennett are a combined 4/19 from 3. This is why people despise you, RustShack.

And this is Wiggins looking great:
34% shooting, 6 rebounds, and 0 assists in 60 minutes played

Nutsack shut the **** up

There's more to basketball than just stats, but I wouldn't expect everyone to know how to use their eyes.

ChiefsCountry · 07-13-2014, 04:21 PM

Rockets didn't match Parsons deal with Dallas.

.

If it's anything like the D-league, every shot is uncontested.

This is true. Their shots probably went from way off the mark to just a little off the mark

Explain it to us then. How are they shooting the three very well if they're not making it?

Would have been horribly priced, but the Rockets really ****ed up this offseason.

KC_Connection · 07-13-2014, 04:25 PM

Houston completely bungled their offseason.
