"Who are you and what did you do with Joey Dorsey?"

Dorsey is good in small doses

 

He gives everything he has to the game on the floor. You just can't ask more than that.

In games this season, he is the best on the team at defending LMA. I think he would also be invaluable in a series with Memphis or LAC. Zbo nor any other NBA player can back him down...and no question he can foul Jordan.

Remember all the stupid comments calling him "hot garbage", "trash", and DM's worst signing, among other things? Don't hear as much from those jerks these days.

He is a role player and won't ever be more than that, but he plays his role very well.

 

If Dorsey's on our playoff roster, our western conference opponent should send Morey a thank you card. Whoevers the center will have a field day once Dwight goes out

 

he should always get some spot minutes. IMO

 

but no more than spot minutes )

 

Once DH12 is back to rebounding Dorsey's spot minutes will be gone unless major foul trouble hits our front line or injuries. Dorsey can rebound at a top level, play decent defense and set great picks but other than the clean up dunks he is a zero on offense. The rest of our BIGS our going to be hungry for more minutes. 96 minutes for 4 guys would be 24 each. That is the baseline for D-MO, TJ, JS, and DH. Depending on match-ups, performance and fouls they should get 15 minutes on the low end and 35 minutes on the high side. I don't hate Dorsey, I actually enjoy watching his effort but there will be no minutes for him in 3 weeks.

 

Dorsey continues to rebound at an elite rate.

 

We need to get Dorsey out there with the starters in my opinion. He might be shorter then most center, but this man get rebounds on a elite level. Can guard pick and rolls MUCH better then DMO, set amazing picks for Harden. I say put him back in the starting line up. DMO becoming real sluggish lately. Always on the ground and can't get a rebound to save his life.

 

yes, absolutely. esp if d-mo continues to struggle. we need to make a physical presence known in a game (literally) from the jump. i liked him starting then having smith come off the bench. what a one-two punch.

 

Dorsey is like Chuck Hayes, just less defense but better rebounding!

 

Dorsey still sucks, but he hasn't been doing anything crazy lately, so thats good.

His minutes have been limited since we got Smith. I just don't see him here next year.

 

Just a little Joey love. 7p, 8r, 3 steals today -- not bad. Hustles, extremely active, works on the offensive glass, better at finishing, doesn't play outside of himself. The quick fouls are still an issue, especially when we're as short on bigs as we are... but otherwise, I feel comfortable saying he's miles better than he was to start the season.

 

Definitely not given enough credit on this board.The guy plays hard on every possession.
Other than one bad post up. He was alright today. BTW, the guys is absolutely huge in person!! Maybe even bigger than Dwight

 

He moves his feet really well in the PNR.

That's something I love about Big Baby Davis.

He needs to quit with the fouling as some are preventable if he just doesn't reach.

But overall, he has been the most improved player from beginning to end of year production.

 

Is it just me, or have his post moves been slightly better? He randomly gets deep position and makes solid little dropsteps. Impressive.

Not a bad fifth big man to plug in at all...

 

Dwight could learn something from the way that he gets position.

he jets in front of defenders and just holds his position really well.

His footwork isn't half bad either.

 

credit to him, he looked absolutely unplayable early in the season and has become quite a nice piece

 

I deserve to eat some crow on Dorsey. Good job, Joey.

The 'away from the ball' picks, PnR picks, boards, dunks, and that D more times than not...

I was wrong.

"Harden to Howard"...Oops.

 

His post moves are honestly more aesthetically pleasing than Dwight's.
