    That went beyond their professional relationship.

    Luka looks taller than Garuba.

    Good thing Garuba has 7'3 wingspan.

    Agree wholeheartedly.

    I feel strongly he can pass and perform the Olynyk role; which i believe was the
    strongest reason for draft Sengun. Offensive hub at the top of the key, seeing
    over the top of the defense, drawing the opposing big out from away the rim.
    Ability to hit slashers and cutters working along the baseline or elsewhere.

    Olynyk is not exactly a good defender either. In fact I would venture to guess
    Sengun will be a better defender than Olynyk eventually. Right now Olynyk
    has the advantage because he has played other teams in the league many times
    and has been able to study opponents and their favorite moves several
    times.

    I yield to your knowledge of Sengun....for now. Lol

    Mavs fans already fearing Garuba defense.

    Who is going to remind them that Tate is also on the Rockets?

    my favorite part of that is how European announcers just yawn at blocked shots.

    Yes it was actually one or two games seen by one S.I. writer
    that made Darko can't miss.

    Hope the Turkish league is as good as many here say it is

    So do you still want Mobley or prefer Green + Garuba... Something many of us wanted but could not see actually happening...
