Honestly, my starters for game 6 would be. Meyers, Kanter, Harkless, CJ, Dame. Now Meyers would have a really short leash but I honestly believe he's our best shot to actually slow up Jokic and at least match him physically. Not that it matters what I think as Terry doesn't take my phone calls heh.
I'd go Dame, CJ, Hood, Collins, Meyers. Bring Curry, Layman, Moe, Kanter off the bench. Let ET and Chief sit and watch.
Guys.... We start Meyers and he'll have 2 QUICK fouls to start the quarter. Meyers should backup Kanter and and Collins should start over Aminu. He should be the one guarding Milsap.
Maybe he would. Maybe not. But I'd be willing to chance that possibility for the value that I think he can bring.
It would make me nauseous if we got Griffin. But I'd take him if it didn't include Collins. Give them another pick or Harkless.
He hardly ever picks up fouls guarding Kanter though... It doesn't matter if he fouls him or not they don't seem to call it most of the time.
Yeah, I'd want Meyers to play Jockitch very physical. But I had the same thought as dviss. If he came out of the opening tip doing it he'd get two very quick fouls on him. Better to have him come in after game intensity has been established and the refs have settled in to how they are going to "manage" the game.
Completely false. Why did he go out of the first quarter with 2 fouls last game? They were both from guarding Kanter.
I didnt see the 1st half last night. I have definitely seen enough to know he fouls Kanter a lot more than he gets called for though.
Well, he does that to everyone right? I simply can't understand why they let him get away with so much. He's soft, overrated, and uncoordinated while attempting to move laterally...
The 4th quarter last night they called a foul on Meyers because Jokic turned his shoulder, Meyers stood him up, and Jokic who has bullied everyone all series wasnt expecting to hit someone who could stand up to him, so he then just kind of died and about 2 seconds later they decided hey its a foul on Meyers... I always under the impression the defender doesnt just have to move out of the way...
Oh and that flagrant one on Meyers, how was that flagrant anything? That looked more like Jokic being that kid who's been a foot taller than everyone his whole life who finally has to play against someone his size and crying about it. It was kind of funny because the game was done not even sure why they had their starters in.
It was unnecessary. That forearm can puncture a lung. Ask Gerald Wallace. Ask JJ Barea about that forearm. It's not defense. It was not a basketball play. I agreed with that call.
The problem is we have a great guard rotation and center rotation(when healthy) and a complete dog shit forward rotation. They are all decent players but every one of them is more of an NBA bench player than starter. Chief (streaky) Moe (d only) Zach (not ready) Hood (consistency) Layman (who knows) All of those are quality NBA bench players, I believe Zach is most likely to be the best NBA starter of the bunch. However on a loaded team Hood would be acceptable as a starter. Dame CJ Hood Zach Nurk Guessing that’s ^ our 2020 playoff starting lineup, which is better than what we have now.
