    I think my point is more "We haven't seen enough to tell one way or another". You can't really hate a person unless you really know them as well. I think we need more sample size. We can revisit this thread in a few more months.

    I think he has a lot of talent. We just need to be patient.

    He just needs to figure out his identity. He has the tools to be a power forward, but we need a big man coach in the worst way. He's not an Aldridge and I really don't want him trying to model his game after LMA.

    I would love to see him play more of a "Gary Trent" type role; excluding the thug life lifestyle.

    Gary Trent, Brian Grant, Charles Oakley type of guy. That's what I would like to see. We need that kind of big man coach.

    We used to have someone that would have been great... RIP Mo. :sigh:

    Yeah I was thinking Oakley too. He would be very similar to Mo.

    No. Serious question: were you ever "in love" with him? Seems like you've been dogging on him for a long time and now that he hasn't played to your standards you're wondering if everyone feels the same way as you. I think very few if any are giving up on him. However, there are some that weren't on his bandwagon in the first place.

    Seems like there are two complaints about my complaints:
    1. We haven't had him for any time at all! And now,
    2. I've been dogging him for a long time.

    Either I'm prescient and I was dogging him before we got him or one of these can't be true.

    Nice to see that "some" are preparing the ground by saying they were "never on the bandwagon".

    One of these things is not like the other. Because he's a punk.

    You've pretty much been dogging him since the beginning of summer league.

    So, after we got him, then. And after it was obvious why other teams had given up on him.
