Skal Should Get More Playing Time

Yeah last night wasnt even on Tolliver the dude IS NOT a center, what did they expect to happen when they have a guy totally undersized guarding the paint vs a team thats just massive anyways...

 

BPM through six games

1. Lillard
2. Skal
3. Hood

Skal is also the only blazer that has a positive BPM on both offense and defense.

 

Seems like a perfectly good reason to bench Skal late in the game.

 

Skal Labissiere Per 36 Stats:
20.1 PPG
10.5 RPG
2.3 BPG
66.7 FG%
68.2 TS%

Why the hell is he only playing 13 minutes per game?!

 

Could be he just does not have enough stamina.

 

Except he'll be playing absolutely fine and Stotts will yank him anyway. I bet he's in as good of shape as Anthony Tolliver.

 

Idk something something Tolliver vet something communication something something.

 

If only Tolliver could protect the rim with his words.

 

Sucks that we lost both Hood and Skal for the end of the Sixers game. We would have probably won it with them.

 

We didn't lose Skal?

 

I think he's being sarcastic because we lost him due to "Stotts"

 

Oh yes we did

 

Nowhere to be found

 

Skal's jumper reminds me of Sheed. Skal = Sheed.

 

Skal is going to be really really good when he can use both hands to protect the ball ..Sheed had way better hands. Skal tips balls to the other team or out of bounds pretty often going for a board or sometimes during a jump ball....that'll hopefully come around and improve for him. What I've seen so far is he has great skillsets but one glaring need for improvement...protecting the ball...he likes to one hand the ball too much

 

The problem is Skal has no future in our rotation once Collins and Nurk are back. So any minutes we invest in him are a sunken investment we could have used on other players.

I’d like to see Mario get more minutes. We’re going to need Mario’s athleticism and passing in the playoffs more than Skal’s skill set.

 

Can’t wait to see him move back to the four where he belongs, but he’s done a commendable job playing out of position. His shot is so wet. The Collins/Skal pairing will be fun.

 

He really should be playing the 4. As good as he's looked on offense, his defensive awareness is so poor and he's constantly beaten on the defensive glass. A lot of these are less of an issue at 4. I'd like to see him get some time next to Whiteside, he's a decent 3 point shooter and if he's guarding another stretch 4, he shouldn't be beaten so often on drives.

 

I can't wait for the techs to start piling up !

 

Nas at 19 is really good about protecting the ball...he two hands his rebounds and gets the ball up to his chest after a board
