    Article here.

    I wish him the best, hope he latches on. He seems like a talented knucklehead.

    Didn't we see articles like this when he came to the Blazers?

    It's nice to see that he's averaging a rebound every 2 minutes though - rebounding was always his strength.

    Eastern Conference Skill Set = good fit on a crappy team in a crappy division in a crappy conference that's not actually trying to win any games.

    Everyone looks better on the 6ers. People though Spencer Hawes was a 6th man of the year; Thaddeus Young was a starting PF and Evan Turner was a 20ppg scorer. Saw plenty of TRob when he was here and one of the former Blazers I'm glad is no longer on the team. Jarrett Jack, ZBo, Andre Miller, Martell Webster could all help this team now. To a lesser extent James Jones, Luke Babbitt and even JJ Hickson. But I have no interest in TRob now or in the future.

    For those who didn't click the link: 8+ points, 8+ rebounds in 17 MPG.

    I think the rub is that he can't put up those number consistently on a good team. Being on the 76ers isn't call for alarm that we just traded jermaine here.

    It's the Sixers, the Native Americans playing basketball at your local YMCA would probably get a shot with them.

    Yeah, and Alexey Shved is another small sample size superstar playing on the same shitty team. He has a PER = 20.0 with PHI and looks like a fucking all-star averaging 21.3 pts and 5.8 ast Per 36. I don't hear anyone complaining we missed out on the Alexey Shved fire sale.

    Perspective people. Meaningless stats in a meaningless role on a meaningless team...
