I didnt say good...I said star...and yes I think it would. Our biggest problem is we do not ever get easy buckets. We need a bosh/gasol type of player to be a release valve ...when our shot arent falling. As good as scola is...he doesnt get easy buckets ...he makes hard shots...but sometimes hes off...and if hes off and our shots arent falling we loose. We need a PF that consistently gets easy buckets. If we add bosh type of player and keep camby and dalembert (or even one of them) We will be dynamically better.
We do need to get that (closer-to-)elite PF. Scola-PPat isn't cutting it. Scola plays hard but gets mugged by the better PFs. And Ppat is reverting to his wooden, think-too-much, no-instincts self. I'd agree on Bosh or Millsap. But no one's gonna give up that #1 pick for Kentucky Unibrow.
Draft at 13th or 14th We need any type of star player no matter the position, a reliable goto perimeter scoring, an upgrade to Scola, and a future center. I don't think their is a clear upgrade to Scola in the 13th to 14th range. The star player is A.Davis. Players with potential to be stars are there but will be a gamble. So with the 13th or 14th of their own pick the Rockets will select either Perry Jones or Meyers Leonard. I think we will draft potential like we got last year with Donatas Motiejunas. People are down on Patterson and Morris so I doubt for a third straight year Morey drafts a underheight(they weigh enough...just slightly shorter then we hope) PF like Sullinger or T.Robinson. I think Morey will try to move up to get a perimeter player with potential to be that goto perimeter scorer like J.Lamb or B.Beal who both play defense. Need to replace Kevin Martin ASAP. P.Jones will be the potential star. Don't think Baylor used him right. He needs to be feed the ball to gain confidence and be developed into a mismatch nightmare. Leonard looks like he could be very servicable and has potential to be a reliable starting center. PG Lowry, Dragic SG Lee, Budinger, Beal/J.Lamb SF Parsons, Morris, PJ3 PF Scola, Patterson, Motiejunas C Camby, Dalembert? OR PG Lowry, Dragic SG Lee, Beal/J.Lamb SF Parsons, Budinger, Morris PF Scola, Patterson, Motiejunas C Camby, M.Leonard
You know whats crazy landry and Milsap had almost identical rookie seasons...or sophmore whatever it was. (their breakout years)
I guess you know then. With Dally on the verge of getting some kind of hip surgery, you already know his condition. You fans are idiots. yeah McHale calls timeout late but when fans blame him for not subbing correctly, like put in a C. You guys are morons who dont even know the condition of our C's. HE CANT PUT THEM IN BECAUSE THEY ARE HURT. But then again you fans who dont listen to teh report prior to the game already know. F what they said, just put a C in because your a fan. Your a fook nut ignorant fan. If your reason against McHale is because he didn't put a hurt player in, yes your an idiot. You and everyone calling him out on that. And if you on McHale just cause he subs late, then you name the coach who would have wanted to be here that is better?
I like courtney lee...i dont think you have to have a super start wing player...I like have the 2 way PG, SG, SF that we have... We just need a elite post player.
If we want to waste the cap space, Philadelphia is leaning again to trading Andre Iguodala. I say "waste" because he's expeeeeeeensive, not for any anti-AI sentiment. I'd rather have someone who can pass and D up than score a lot. We already have dudes who can score. They're probably looking to move him because of his contract size and he and Evan Turner are too much of the same player (surprise!). If we're in the lottery, I don't think we could pray to beat the odds and land high enough for AI's clone, MKG. I guess I'm saying, Can we get a SG with size who can D up? Courtney plays D but he's probably 6'3"-ish and that's sometimes a liability. I won't hope we could land Harden, but I wanted to throw his name out there whilst I drift in a cloud of my own self-delusions.
Is this correct??? http://www.draftexpress.com/transactions.php http://www.draftexpress.com/nba-mock-draft/2012/ Updated before last nights game.
They have it the other way around, although it doesn't matter anymore we traded the Minny 2nd round pick to Portland I think.. Also I'm assuming they're taking about player ranking in that update, because they have the standings all wrong.
So an injured player got seven blocks in the 1st half? I'd say play him. btw, Sam's injury was not the reason McHale gave for playing PPat-Scola down the stretch. It was because DEN was also playing small.
