I wish Adelman could quit Wells. Morey needs to help put Rick in Rehab.

Bonzi CAN play good good defense
He CAN put 18 pts. and 8 rbs.
He CAN attack the basket, instead of taking that jumpshot

...but he doesn't have the effort to do that. this is the same guy who "winged it" last year under JVG.

 

I think you're being too hard on him. Granted I haven't seen the last 5-8 games (my Internet connection is archaic) but unless we do trade him, like you suggest, there is no one on our team who I'd play above him. Luther playing less is also a positive.

 

Snyder? ... Are you f***ing kidding me? Kirk Snyder?

... I mean, I was already losing any and all trust in your opinion... but dear god.

 

When there is a apin and you have play through it, it's not surprising if he missed some defensive rotations and looked like his body isn't there anymore.
Anyone played in competitive match before pain will not look right from various perspective including those unrelated one.

 

In brief support of Kirk Snyder: besides his absent BBIQ, his poor outside shot, and lacking BBIQ he does bring hustle and passion to his (few) minutes.

Q: can Landry develop into a 3, at least a 3/4 for 15+ MPG?

 

This is hilarious. Fans use to bash JVG for not playing Bonzi and now we see why he barley played him (no defense/out of shape). And now fans are bashing Rick the Ruler for playing Bonzi. Only at Clutchfans......

 

I wish i knew how to quit rafer !

In certain match-ups, bonzi is a very valuable weapon to have. I just don't like it when he is on the court with yao. It's then when he starts shooting the jumpshots or so it seems.

 

Bonzi isn't hungry at all, he jogging up and down the court taking Jumpers like he's Tmac. He's afraid to drive to hole, because he's missing layups like Rafer.

I would love to see a hungry Mike Harris get some minutes. Why is Novak in a uniform when Kirk Snyder will play defense on the wing.

 

Mike Harris is a scrub and that's why he is not in the NBA.

This team needs some real players. Enough with the crappy names.

We would've been better off keeping Azibuike instead of Snyder, but the Warriors knew he'd be valuable enough that they could drop J-Rich. At least we knew what he could do in college.

Mike Harris is a no named player. We STILL need another guy who can create his own shot, has height, can play some D and drive (RUDY GAY ANYBODY????)

nevertheless, this team needs a trade badly because between Rafer, Luther and Bonzi(asking too much of him at this point) the guard position sucks.

 

Azubuke was a no named player too....until he got the chance to play.



Look the only reason I am trumpeting Mike Harris or Kirk Snyder is that we need some serious athleticism on the wings....

That is one of the most glaring weaknesses on this team....our lack of athletic abilities.....on the wings.....

DD

 

Carl this is agreat post and I couldn't agree with you more!

 

a lil harsh, but true for the most part.

bonzi is just lazy. i particularly hate his defense. other than the rebounding, his defense is as good as mine.

 

Bonzi is great weapon to have, he can drive to the basket and make with and1s, if not FTs are coming where he is at least 1 for 2

He can hit a midrange often enough to get defensive attention, he can run the break, pass, has good hands receiving passes.......

We are lucky to have him at his salary.

Man, people just love to complain.............

 

He will have a job in Adelman's team.

and Bonzi plays better when facing better opponents.

 

Azibuike wasn't a high draft pick but he was far from no name. Mike Harris is a no name player and ont even in the NBA at that.

It almost seems like this teams management runs from athleticism.

RUDY GAY was our athlete, now it's five years and running post Francis era and this team is still undersized and unathletic in key areas.

 

That is what I think is going on. He has looked horrendous going to the basket and turns it over just dribbling with his left hand. I am hoping that it is his shoulder injury as well but hopefully he can recover soon because his play has been really bad. He has no touch around the basket anymore.

 

True, so give me some passion on the court. It sure doesn't have to be Harris or Snyder, perhaps it could be Landry playing some 3.

 

Seriously, most Rox players are bench type players because they are too one-dimensional, but NBA rules require a team to have 5 starters.

Don't give me all those Brook, Landry, Scola should all start suggestions. Let them play 30 min on regular basis and their weaknesses will become more obvious. Even now they play fairly inconsistently.
