    But he can’t defend fours. If anything he should be given a chance to be the backup center. He played his best with Davis at PF a couple years ago. Go back to that. Aminu at SF. Harkless can waive a towel.

    Those new red unis sure are underwhelming.

    I’m not dying on this hill but Leonard should be our backup center.

    I haven't seen them in person, but on my screen and on TV they look orange to me.

    That's two good games in the span of two weeks for New Meyers. Much better than the one to two good games per year for Old Meyers.

    As far as being "mentally weak", I doubt if Old Meyers would have bounced back like that after being booed in his last game. The Meyers haters are probably stunned that the booing didn't send him into a season long funk.

    Meyers had two good games, then sat for a week, had a brief stint in the air ball game, then played well last night.

    I'd like to see Meyers play more consistent minutes. I'd also like to see him shut up, stop posing, and stop posting.

    :cheers:

    Most likely his response to the fans who booed him in the previous game. He did vindicate himself by going 7-9 and scoring 17 points in 16 minutes last night, but he should lay off the social media and just let his play do the talking for him.

    I guarantee you if he has more games like last night, or against SAC and MEM, the boos will stop.

    He deserves to say that. Despite the loss. He earned it. If you don't agree then check you post history.

    I think that post is pathetic. Your team just lost again.

    I'm not up to speed on Twitter speak, what does M O O D mean? Is it some Twitter version of how's my ass taste now bitches?

    Even though I just posted that he should lay off the social media and let his play don't the talking, if he keeps playing like he did last night, he can post whatever the fuck he wants.

    Me neither. I am fundamentally incompatible with any medium that restricts communication to 140 or fewer characters. I am to Twitter what Evan Turner is to Terry Stotts' offense.

    Its 280 now.


    And in a note unrelated to what i quoted... Meyers will be bad again for another month. Just like old meyers. I have no faith in his consistency.

    Meyers’s social media awareness rivals our President’s. Go dark. Shut it. No posts flexing your muscles or snuggling with your dog or quotes from the Bible. Just play hard and earn some respect.

    Not disagreeing with you because i think he needs to stop the posting of stupid crap. But he was not the reason for either loss.
