    I guess we found out who one of Doc's sources was.

    If Sura is taking his minutes, that just means he has more to improve. If Bowen is taking his minutes, he needs to change his day job.

    Well I for one am definitely happy that Boki will be getting a chance to play a bit. If he ends up sucking, then fine, but give the kid a chance first and see what he can do.

    After digesting this article, I'm not comfortable about the security of Nachbar's place on the team. Did anyone notice that in discussing the option on year 4 , Feigen makes the comparison to Eddie Griffin? That doesn't sound like a vote of confidence.

    I don't mean to imply that Boki's place on the team should be secure, just that he doesn't seem to be part of the team's long-term plans unless he breaks out. And he'll have to earn the opportunity to do that as well.

    I'd like to see Boki raise his perimeter shooting to 38% and his FG% to over forty this year. If he can do that and continue to stay in front of his man, hopefully JVG will keep him.

    Reading this thread made me watch the clip of Nachbar dunking on Malone and then blocking him...Man that was GREAT...

    I really hope Nachbar does something well with the minutes this year.

    As oppose to just handing him the starting spot? I actually like the idea of: if he starts playing like a solid player, he is part of our long term plans. If he sucks, he won't be.

    You misunderstand me. He should earn his spot, of course; I'd just like to see him succeed and would be sorry if he didn't pan out. I mean, short of Yao, when's the last time we had a draft pick make it?

    Why do I love Boki? And yet, I love Boki.

    Go Boki, we're behind you! (as often, so is your defensive assignment :D ...sorry, I couldn't resist).

    heh....that is totally my favorite clip from last year....

    Ill keep that one forever.....just to be able to watch Boki make Karla his beeotch. :D


    look out folks...Boki will get better this year...his D was already underappreciated by many here....but as you can see in the article, I'm not the only one that noticed.

    now if that boy can just put the rock in the hole...

    This whole thing is hilarious. Boki has done very little (except b****-slapping Karla, which, while in and of itself is outstanding, not exactly all he needs to be our franchise player :)) in the NBA, and yet everyone praises and loves the guy.
    And I'm guilty too! I love Boki! I don't understand it.
