Nene agrees with the Rockets

Mchale disliked berman. Lol was kinda funny

 

Berman is GOAT

 

Well just confirmed... we're a Weiner team... yup.

 

Cool, the guy's voice is nothing like I expected.

 

That 94% support the signing poll is strong.

 

I approve (and it's about time)! :grin:

 

The last time there was such broad agreement by this board was the Lawson trade.

 

It was a low risk low reward move then, and it is now. Much like this. Hindsight changes nothing.

 

That was BTW, exactly one year ago today.

 

agreed it was relatively low risk for a potential high reward, but $3 mil in cap room vs a 1st round pick is a big difference in risk. If Lawson was low risk, Nene is NO risk.

 

Nene and coach!

Reminds me of the Kevin Willis signing for houston back in the 90's

 

Funny picture

 

Nene genuinely seems like a good dude. He's always smiling, and one thing is for sure....he gives 100% on the court. It's virtually a no-risk signing that has the potential to give us some nice depth in the front court.

 

Inb4 people criticize him for smiling too much, ala Dwight :grin:

 

Nene has a skllset around the basket Howard does not have (can face up and put it on the floor and attack). It will be good to see a guy that can actually make a post MOVE and be creative and active around the rim. Decent mid range shot to help space the floor. He makes his FTs too. He is a physical tough player that wont get cheap fouls like Howard would do often times if someone pushed him at the other end. I just like the fact that he can create his own shots once he gets the ball. It was tough to watch Howard try to create a post move SMH

 

Good post. Agree with all of it. If he stays healthy he's a bargain.

 

And remember this is the year of chemistry and Nene even as a veteran at the end of the bench is going to be a big plus in that area.

 

Sounds like our starting 5 to me, at least over Capela. Capela is still just a trashman on offense (other than PnR), good on D if not tired, and horrible on the line.

 

Agreed. Nene will prove this year that less is more compared to all the Dwight overatedness.
