    Was thinking the same thing. They started smothering Batum and forced the rest of the team make the shot

    Unfortunately it's pretty easy to take the ball out of Nic's hands.

    Charles really likes us I guess. I havent been able to watch a TNT broadcasted game for awhile, but I'm shocked to hear him talk highly of us.

    You can make him pass just by getting in his face a lot of times. He's not exactly going to break his man down.

    I'm convinced it's Nate's general disdain for anything that looks even remotely finesse. Nic tends to be more of a "glider" than a "dive bomber"

    Nate wants guys that play like this:

    instead Nic plays more like this:

    Maybe you haven't been watching the game?

    Besides, you can be a good player without being a good 1v1 scorer. But I guess Batum sucks cause he's not Rudy Gay.:lol:

    I have a question. Why do you hate on Batum? You don't think he's been playing well? You know if he plays well, it just gives us a much better chance of winning.

    I don't hate Batum.

    I've said he's a nice role player. What's wrong with that?

    From the sounds of your posts all season, it doesn't sound like you think he should get any minutes. All you do is complain about him.

    Okay so let me be clear. You actually think Batum is a good player then?

    I have maintained that he's a nice role player that I wouldn't mind including in a deal for a really good PG.
