    I get that. I just don't find Meyers as valuable as you do.

    Sadly Meyers is the same player he was as a rookie.... slow mechanics and very little court awareness. When the play comes to him in a proper set, he can be productive. But when the game is moving anything faster than a snails pace he gets lost or out of position or just camps out on the 3pt line to shoot his oh so slow release. Hopefully someone will think they can fix him, phx anyone please

    Man he's even worse now than he was back then. He played with an edge his rookie season. I still remember that jam he had against Andre Miller.

    Neil re-signed him because he couldn't admit he drafted a bust with that pick, luckily outside of some unknown 2nd rounders like Draymond, Middleton and Crowder that most teams passed on in the first round I don't see any amazing player taken right after him.

    It's a shame he couldn't admit this last summer and now we're either stuck with him for a number of years, or we'll probably have to give up an asset to dump him when he should probably be playing in China or Turkey right now.

    I think he's a bigger bust than Oden ever was. At least Oden had an excuse for an early career, and he knew how to play basketball.

    Oden has the stigma of being the number one pick, and all of those guys taken after him, but I will certainly agree he was a much, much better basketball player than Myers when he was healthy.

    A bust to me is a guy that shows he can't play, not someone who gets injured. So yeah, Leonard is the real bust. Oden was just unlucky.

    Made to claw my eyes? Signing me isn't wise? You can't teach size? (but you can waste it)

    Blue sky thinking for Meyers self-biggie-ups video

    Built To Rebound....... nope
    Built To Block.... nope
    Built To Defend.... nope
    Built To Disappoint... yes, but
    Built To DeMeyersvational..... yes, but
    Built To Annoy A Fanbase..... yes, but


    Built To Rise.... seems legit.


    yes, we have a new word

    DeMeyersvational

    the process where you are so sigh/ugh worthy that the mere thought of the notion is enough to stop you mid thought.

    That's a repulsive thought, but I think you're 100% correct on that one. It's gotten to the point where no one is gonna take Butters, unless we package Dame or CJ with him....

    (yeah, that's an exaggeration, but not much of one...)

    Meyers is going exactly where his game is. Nowhere.

    It's painful to think that his biggest use in the next 3yrs will be as an expiring contract.

    Meyers needs to do the right thing and void his contract and walk away.
