Yeah I think OP meant to put Francisco Garcia in the title. Garcia has been really really bad for a while now and to compound it he makes 1 or 2 ridiculously stupid fouls every game. I think he can potentially turn it around but I wouldn't mind seeing another shooter take his place. The good news is our core is championship quality and Morey knows how to put the pieces around that.
I prefer Casspi over Garcia. Garcia has been almost useless. Not sure how coach justifies playing them but yanks other guys when they make mistakes.
This. You people are ****ing insane. We're complaining about Casspi? Really? The guy may not be a star, but he's pretty damn talented and WAY better than the scrub we thought he was in Cleveland and Sactown. Dude hits his shots, and man does he have a high basketball IQ. I think the biggest piece of **** on this team is Franbricksco Foulcia.
What's wrong with Casspi? He's done pretty well for what he's been asked to do. Shoot 3's and cut. I've only really been disappointed with Asik and Motiejunas.
Casspi can actually drive into the paint and score with his off-balance floater every now and then, and is also a good passer. For the 7th/8th man on the roster he far exceeds my admittedly low expectation. Garcia, otoh, just plainly sucks as of late. When his 3s aren't falling he commits dumb fouls and generally is a negative. I'd rather have D-mo playing over him right now.
Garcia is the weak link, not Casspi. I said all summer Garcia was NOT a lock-down defender and too streaky. Casspi is the only player on the team that knows how to throw Dwight Howard a lob. Casspi will be fine for us. Garcia, not so much.
Because we're not going deep into the playoffs if the first guy off the bench doesn't understand his role. I honestly think he watches what Parsons does and says "I can do that too".
Again... he is a VET MIN player. You should be happy if he does anything at all... The REAL question you should be asking yourself, is if he is as bad as you are erroneously making him out to be, what does that say about the players getting paid far more than him and actually hurting us from a cap POV that the team is resorting to a guy who you shouldn't have high expectations for to begin with. I would rather us get rid of players like D-Mo so we can actually have money to sign someone productive.
So you should be rooting for us to get rid of all those scrubs that are getting paid more than him so we can you know, get more productive players?
Casspi is inconsistent, sometimes misses dunks and layups and makes me want to hurl something at the TV, but he can still get better. No need to panic. The person I'm really worry about is Garcia.
I have no idea what you are thinking of. Try replacing Casspi with another minimum contract player and see where that gets you. High value for the dollar with that man. Most teams get absolutely no production from minimum contract vets.
