Rodney Hood: Won't be missed

Do Not Sell My Personal Information

He's scored 30 or more 5 times in 4 seasons, never scoring more than 32. I seriously wonder if people ever watched this dude before he came here.

He put up a whopping 8.9 ppg in the playoffs last year on a sizzling 35% shooting.

It ain't about confidence with this dude. He's just not that good. And he's costing himself A LOT of money right now.

Hes been known as a streaky guy but has rarely gotten hot. I blame the coach sticking him on the perimeter.

They do move him off the ball. They tried getting him numerous dribble hand offs, but he dribbles into terrible mid-range shots, and his handle is garbage.

Yeah he needs to shoot those. We brought him here to shoot and he is so passive. I thoughtbhe was a chucker? Id honestly prefer a chucker right now

Why can't this fucker just Chuck from 3. I'm so sick of his garbage ass lazily dribbling into a midrange pull up. Just take it to the rack and kick it to the next guy!!!! Fuck. He's a huge culprit why we needed Super Saiyan God LeBron to barely eek out 1 win vs the Pacers
 
Right now, I view him as a bench guy who should only get minimal minutes in the playoffs. JR and Korver are totally outplaying him.

I’ll be fine with taking him out of the rotations completely and replacing him with Cedi, Cedi is a way more impactful player and he plays with heart and energy on both ends, this guy looks completely lost and shook.

If Lue is going all out, then Cedi should see some burn in Game 3. He'll play hard and run the floor, getting some buckets in transition.
 
Posted this in another thread but figured it was worth putting here too.

Hopefully Hood was slumping due to personal issues, which is entirely possible btw. Leading up to your child's birth (in his case twins), takes a lot out of someone.

The only thing Lue is going is full retard, hence Cedi and Zizic still won't play even though it's clear to the entire sports-watching world how much they'd help us.

Yeah. I posted this in the Love thread, but he needs to get Kevin out of playing the 5- he's taking a beating, and Indiana is trying to beat him up physically.
If they want points from him, they need to get him back at the 4.
 
I honestly think Cedi would be, straight up, a better option than Hood right now. I think Cedi has a higher chance of knocking down open threes, creating off the dribble, finishing near the rim, and he is tougher defensively.

I'm very disappointed in Hood, he doesn't step up to the challenge.

He had a toughness that Hood lacks and he is going to play hard. I've seen Cedi make mistakes, but never look look the is afraid of the moment. Hood seems afraid. He just isn't impacting the game.
