[Chron] Asik intends to return to lineup vs. Celtics

Awesome. It takes courage to apologize. Good for him. Hope he have a breakout game against the Celtics.

 

I hope they had a group hug and moved on .

 

Oh dude this cracked me up. Perfect picture.

That Dwight quote about the Turkish dinner made me lol as well!

But seriously, I really like the way jones has been playing at the 4. He's very athletic and I think works well with Dwight.
I also like the luxury of asik spotting Dwight if he's tired or in foul trouble and just saving Dwight's legs.

I really hope Asik agrees to coming off the bench. He'll be a huge piece to this team if we can keep him.

 

I really want a trade to happen just because trades are exciting and I know Morey will get a good deal.

 

Hakeem is and has always been the greatest to this very date, and I guess no one can get close to him in any ways in the following 10 years...Even KG is not even close...
Dwight's vertical explosiveness and strength are superb, but his mobility is great? C'mon, compared with whom? Asik??, who i think, is more active in traffic or transition....he even lost some pounds to improve his mobility last season. Every time I watch Dwight run, I feel butthurt! He runs like a ROBOTic chicken! And his struggling in Lobbing is mainly due to his declining mobility. if Asik is willing to put aside his frustration in losing his starting position, and ready to play for the team, he is almost an equally good center as Dwight. Putting him on the bench will be so much better than any existing trade rumors. Shumpert somehow fits, but we are unlikely to cut harden's minutes for him...and rondo here to add fuels to the ego issue on Rockets; then, we should have a new head coach.

 

Spoiler

Superdead @ that photo of Jeremy. Whoever approved that for use is rude as hell.

 

Compared to everybody. There is no other player of Dwight's size that has the same mobility. DH is big strong and fast and there isn't anyone that comes close. (maybe Hibbert).

 

I hope Asik will give a solid effort whenever he is out there, irrespective of how many minutes he gets. Some days will be more, and some days will be less.

 

Words are worthless right now. PLAY HARD, and then we can talk about forgiveness.

 

Asik had the longest unbroken games-played streak in the NBA. Seriously doubt he broke it for the flu.

 

12-15mpg is all we need him for any more than that and the team gets worse.

DD

 

I personally think 20. There are some teams that the Howard/Asik pairing makes perfect sense. MEM, IND, SAS when they play very big.

 

I agree.

Maybe even some more if our 1-2-3 positions actually try to the defend the shooters and the pick and roll.

 

Yeah, who was responsible for using that photo? Any ideas Justaguy?

 

Very funny

 

With Asik and Lin coming off the bench, we basically have a second set of starters. I think Lin and Jones could do a lot of damage together as well.

 

Must be a rampant LOH.

 

I agree. Smh.

 

dlDwight should be playing less. The less he plays now, the fresher he'll be later. He should be playing less than 30 and Asik should be playing more than 20.

 

12-15 posts per year is all we need you for any more than that and the board gets worse.
