Steve had 9 assists and 10 boards, it's time to move him to forward

if steve was 6'10 he'd be putting up rodman like rebounding numbers. it just shows you what alot of hustle will do.

he's averaging 30 points on 50% shooting along with 10 rebounds and 5.75 assists.

the key stat is 50 percent shooting. he's not exactly jacking up crap shots here. that's some high percentage scoring.

 

Im lost for words. His play is amazing.

 

Agreed,

If the rest of the team played with his fire they would be unstoppable.

Imagine if Ming played with SF's passion....oh man...I hope to see that one day.

i think ming has the passion in him he's just overwhelmed right now. within time i tihnk this team will be unstoppable.

 

His numbers are Jordanesque. Move him to the 2.

 

I don't think I would want Steve playing the 2. He would get 30 dropped on him every night if he had to guard bigger players. I think when it's all said and done, Steve might be able to break into the list of top 5 PGs of all time.

 

While Steve plays with an unquestionable passion, I'm just afraid his reckless abandon into the lane is going to end up with him hurt real bad. I can't see his body taking the kind of punishment he keeps taking on for like the next ten years or so. I hope he becomes a little bit more like Payton once he gets older and loses a step. The Glove still attacks the lane but does it in a much more controlled and still effective manner.

 

Actually, other than Shaq, how many other centers could avearge 30 and 10. Last night would have been a huge night if Steve weren't in foul trouble.

 

if he had lamar odoms body we would average 35pts 14rebs and 6asts.

even if he had lamar odoms body with his current stats he would be considered a top 5 NBA player. because he is a Pg people want to see him average 9asts and 6 rebounds, not the other way around.

 

Why is it unthinkable to move SF to the 2 and don't give me that bs excuse " he might get hurt..awww". The guy drives to the basket every night and takes on 7 footers so I'm not buying that excuse. Hell, as many shots as he takes he better get 10 rebounds.

 

I love it when fellow posters make a point with sarcasm. I got a pleasant chuckle when I saw the title of the thread. touche'

 

Jason Collier averages ...uhh...very little of anything. Time to move him to Europe.

 

I agree with mav. Let's make Steve a Point Forward. That way he can do the same thing, but his stats will fit that prototype more. Then if he doesn't get more assists, I can tell the biotches in my high school cafeteria that he's getting just as many assists as #33 got, plus more rebounds.

Make Steve a Point Forward, move Hawkins to Point Guard since he defended Payton the best yesterday and he passes to Eddie and Ming better (didn't GATER say that), and keep Mobley at SG, that way we don't have to start Moochie. We can also move Hawkins over to cover the bigger SFs on occassion.

Thus, our starting lineup becomes:

Eddie Griffin
Steve Francis
Kelvin Cato
Cuttino Mobley
Juaq Hawkins

That's so much better than:

Eddie Griffin
Juaq Hawkins
Kelvin Cato
Cuttino Mobley
Steve Francis

Note how the Chicago Bulls only got 2.6 assists from their starting PG in 1996, so Hawkins doesnt' have to get many, as long as we have a great Point Forward on the team.

 

Some of you need to understand that just because you post a lot in this forum doesn't mean you necessarily know anything or that you have the right to belittle someone just because s/he hasn't reached your post count yet or doesn't agree with your opinion.

I mean, damn.

Well well...calling out someone based on their post total..now that is fresh. So when you registered you were immediately brought up to Senior member status ? I can see you working now at the local watering hole.."hey baby, do you know who I am ? I'm Mav..senior member ...wink wink...dude get a grip..this is a message board and you will encounter differing opinions.

 

ROX and diogenes:

it was very clear to me that mav was mocking diogenes's thread by starting this thread, and in his reponse he was further being sarcastic for diogenes being on mission on his first night of posting to bounce from thread to thread repeating the same cry. diogenes, read up, man. Your thread is late; it's been said everyday of the season. It had nothing to do with measuring post counts to call himself superior,,,sheesh. mav is freaking joking in this thread about you bouncing around on your first night repeating what you said in you Thread Title.

We read it. We saw it. OK?

Now, we eagerly await your first post not crying to move SF to SG. keep posting!
