anyone watching the game? The Hamed Haddadi guy is pretty good. Nice jumper, rebounder, and his defense ain't bad. Perfect backup for Yao, too bad he's stuck in Memphis.
Close Warriors home games are always fun to watch, even against the Grizzlies. The emotions have gotten a little spicy in the 4th quarter. The Warriors can't seem to hold it together. Haddadi looks good and has a future in the NBA as a backup. That pick and pop jumper looked pretty impressive. When he rebounds, he holds on to the ball. His main drawback is slowness. But he has good rebounding instincts and jumps high enough to snag the ball in traffic. If he can consistently hit jumpers from 12 feet and closer, he should be OK. How did this guy avoid the radar until the Olympics? I know he's from Iran but word should have gotten out.
He's currently behind Gasol and Milicic. I wonder if we could have traded for him this year. Dorsey and a second round pick for Haddadi. Cmon Morey, work your magic this offseason and get a backup center for Yao.
