Welcome to Portland, Donovan Clingan!

"Elevated" means nothing in this instance.

Clingan should not be compared to Joel Pryzybilla. It's lazy or stupid. Find a better comp.

Marc Gasol was an elevated Joel Przybilla. It's a ridiculous statement that nobody would say ever.

 

Am I off ignore? This is a truly great night

 

You’re lazy and stupid…..er I mean what I meant is that Clingan a plodding good defender with zero offensive game in the post that does the little things to help his team win…..Like Joel

 

You should be back on his ignore, you’re just a troll and not a very good one, at least be a funny troll but you’re neither that either lol.

 

Terry Stotts would have loved this dude. Dame too

 

I remember Joel had stone hands. He fumbled the ball away a lot, which seems to be the opposite of Clingan.

 

But he had tremendous "Red Azz".
"Meet Me outside!"

 

I loved what he brought on defense though. He had a 3 year stretch here where his block% was 7%. And his DRB was over 30%.

He just looked like he had never played basketball in his life offensively.

 

Yeah free throws were a problem also.

 

Your impact on offense as a big is more than being just a post threat. Clingan is a great screener on and off the ball because he's actually a threat to finish on the roll. Joel Przybilla never averaged double digits PER 36 for any one season in his career.

Your statement above is like the equivalent of saying OG Anunoby is basically an elevated Matisse Thybulle on offense. Sure it's technically a true statement, but it actually says nothing about each player.

 

Every once in a while, I hit that "show ignored content" button. I know I shouldn't. That curious side of me wants to see that folks might change. Yet........every time I do, I read like one or two posts
and think, yep.......had it right in the first place. I ignore fans who pound home points over and over, looking for anyway to restate their view, regardless of the actual title of the thread. I ignore them
the same way I would items on a menu I know I don't like....or genres of movies I don't like.

 

??

are you talking points? If so, then yeah. But he averaged double digit rebounds per36 nine times in his career

and to your point about screen-setting. Przybilla was excellent at that. It was one of his few strengths. He constantly freed Brandon Roy from defenders opening driving lane's for Roy's ambidextrous dribble-drives

making this comparison though is way premature. We have over 600 games of Przybilla facing NBA competition on NBA floors. We have 0 games of Clingan doing the same

 

I thought Steve Blake was the red azz Blazer?

 

I thought that referred to Joel, the Steve threw a few temper tantrums in practice.

 

As I understand it they were both considered Red Azz but this probably could be confirmed by @THE HCP ?
I’m just a fan.

Kjironman is a fan!!!

 

I probably should take your advice here. Gluten for punishment!

 

You should probably stay away from bread.

 

I'm eating ritz crackers as I type this. Is that bread? If yes then NO!

 

How is my opinion trolling? Is anything I said about Clingan wrong?
He plods
He is a great defender
He has no low post game
He makes the team better

I don’t get it?

And I’m fucking hilarious

 

Why bring bread into this conversation?
