    What does CJ have to do to get an and-1 there? Ibaka had one hand pushing his hips and the other one coming down on his shooting arm.

    Paperweight implies he does nothing. Playing him actually hurts us!

    If he's not taking someone to school in the post, like a mismatch, he completely hamstrings our offense.

    :lol:

    I assume the thinking from Olshey was "Dame, and CJ are great shooters, get a playmaking 3". Evidence suggests at least Stotts, Dame, and CJ disagree. They don't want the ball taken out of Dame, and CJ's hands.

    Ball dominant? Do you watch him play? He's gotten much better at playing off the ball. He has average length for a SF, so how is he a tweeter when he has SF size and can play SF, SG, and PG?

    I'd rather have somebody with ton of skill who's slightly undersized (Tyreke) than someone who has size and no skill (Harkless).

    Worry about "tweeners" is the same reason why guys like Draymond Green and Tobias Harris were drafted much lower than they should've been.

    True.

    When I think about it, I honestly think I would take Parsons over Turner right now, contract and all. Even though Parsons is also massively over paid, over the course of a season he probably gives us +2 on the win column, whereas Turner gives us -2. $6 million difference in salary for +4 wins, I'll take it....

    Hopefully that is knee-on-knee pain with no structural damage. Dame still hopping around.

    I will explain. For just few days of my membership in this forum, i found out that Nurkic is stupid, bad, his (and main ) whole nation is probably lazy so is Nurkic etc etc...what ever i read by this guy from Germany is negative. Tonight Nurk is stupid because of two turnowers or something at start of the game. Just glad that Nurk played good and that guy watch it. Only positive for me in this defeat if happens.

    There've only been 111 people who've scored 50. I don't know that "lots of guys can do it."

    If we had to give up Shabazz, I like VanVleet. Similar type.

    Dang.
