Frazier was tight with CJ as well as Damon and anyone saying he's worse than Patty C is flat wrong. I'm just now trying to get caught up. Any word on Frazier being brought back? I think he absolutely should be brought back for locker room continuity, at a minimum
He will not be brought back, we got a 2nd rounder to take Brian Roberts off the the Heat's cap. Roberts can play.
Thanks. Well, I believe we have over achieved in large part to continuity and commrodere. Young team. I hope the loss of Frazier doesn't effect morale. He's very well liked.
These guys get paid millions. They'll get over their buddy not being on the team anymore. Frazier was pretty awful.
Lillard went to the allstar games to support CJ and Will...in his own words..these guys are still friends..Mo Williams is one of Dame's closest friends.
I was hoping we would keep this dude around. We need a Big who can muscle in the paint. Something which our 7-1 SG is incapable of doing.
I haven't seen it posted anywhere else. I was wondering about the 2nd that Portland is sending out. Apparently it is the 2020 2nd round pick (protected unless pick 55-60) that Portland sent to Orlando as part of the Harkless trade in July. Orlando transferred ownership of that pick to Cleveland. http://basketball.realgm.com/nba/draft/future_drafts/detailed
To be fair to Meyers he was groomed to be a three-point shooting, stretch Four by the Blazers. (Mistakenly, IMO, I might add - it's just made him even softer). He really could use an off-season of boxing or martial arts to learn to embrace contact, and not shy away from it.
Has Kaman ever had a 35 point game? I get it: he's not the player he once was, and he's hardly played at all. Still....35 points in today's basketball by a big of his type is impressive.
Now that I didn't know, actually. And now he's a 3rd string center on the bench. What happened? Age? Is he really that old? Forgive my ignorance, but I had no idea who this guy was before he came here.
I don't think Meyers shies away from contact at all. He has had no problem mixing it up with the most physical centers in the league. It's just that he doesn't quite yet know how to use his body. The worst is when he boxes out. He's really bad at it.
Fair enough. But 4 years in this league and he's still this bad/inconsistent. Just once, I want to see him pivot inside, dribble to the basket, and slam it down. Just once.
Yeah, I do wish Stotts expanded his role a little more offensively. He has touch around the basket but he almost never posts up. There's no reason why he couldn't develop into a threat with his back to the basket. He really has all the skills to be a complete offensive player.
I bet not; he had severely declining athleticism, tore an Achilies and has been horrific in the year since. Golden State can play McAdoo or Speights more.
