Kevin Martin is starting to lose P.T. to Courtney Lee

Blogged under General, Bloglockers, Game recaps, Front Page by alleyoop on Saturday 18 February 2012 at 2:53 pm

28-year old shooting guard Kevin Martin has played in 29 games (all starts) for the Rockets so far this year and he is averaging 32.2 minutes, 18.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. But, in February he is starting to lose P.T. to 26-year old Courtney Lee. Martin has played in 10 games (all starts) so far in February and he is averaging 25.4 minutes, 13.7 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. Courtney Lee is pushing Kevin Martin for P.T. and I have a hard time understanding why. After all, Martin is the leading scorer on the Rockets so far this year. Lee has played in 10 games (0 starts) so far in February and he is averaging 27.5 minutes, 11.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game. Lee has now played in 23 games (2 starts) for the Rockets so far this year and he is averaging 25.3 minutes, 10.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.2 steals per game. It’s odd that Martin is essentially in Kevin McHale’s Dog House, as he is the best offensive player on the team.
