Houston B.A.L.L. Squad : on the rise

by CONAIR on Nov 20, 2009 11:18 PM CST

I called them the B.A.L.L squad: Budinger, Andersen, Laundry, Lowry. Even our team recently lost to a tall and talented Atlanta Hawks. These are the combination +Battier that gave us a lead on a 14-4 run cushioned and gave us momentum early in the 4th Qtr. Then a sudden ill advised substitution from our coach , brought back the starters who played a little flat in that game that somehow cost us the game. But thanks to the ball squad of Laundry and Lowry who's never say die attitude, almost forced the game into overtime.

Our coach is one of the best in the league no doubt , but somehow with this kind of a game, he should reconsider this 2nd unit combo potentials to be an effective lethal back up that can really makes our starters life easier.

But then again, its a bitter sweet game. Bottom line, it shows that we are the scrappiest team in the league, a tough nut to crack and a never say die attitude that can make other teams life miserable and really makes us proud to be a Houston Rocket dreamshakers!

Go Rockets! pulverized SACS tom.!

Yeah, I think Coach should consider tweaking the endgame line-up a bit

whenever the outside shots are not falling, Scola has been having a hard time posting up against double-teams. Then it’s a chain reaction because without a post threat, our perimeter guys find it hard to be open. Pair Andersen with Scola?

Brooks has to do a better job of ball movement in the half court. Coach has to insert Lowry into the line-up at endgames to generate some ball movement and penetration. He places Brooks at the SG position, figuring Brooks is still the best 3-point threat among us. Brooks can be easily covered because of his size. He should try Budinger once in a while in the endgame.

So insert either Andersen or Budinger in the endgame line-up to test their capability.
