    Are you saying that the reports we have about Black's size are exaggerated?

    He's 6'7.5 without shoes, 6'8.5 with shoes. I seriously don't know why people don't stick with pre-draft measurements, they are the most legitimate source for height. Basically all the heights are spot on except in the rare cases of players such as PG or the alphabet that continued growing after have being drafted.

    He starts a dozen games for us and gets recognition after a cpl decent backup games for the lakers.

    It'd be sad if it wasn't so hilariously transparent

    Yes, if it means hes playing dwight's or josh smith's minutes...

    No if dwight aka the turnover machine and smith the bricker, shoot as much as he likes and they both continue decreasing bbiq of our team


    There is no replacement for playing within yourself and playing to your strenghts

    But his boom is potentially greater than his bust (paging Carl Herrera). Morey is constantly looking for ways to up our variance, and Smith does that far more than Black. Come playoff time, teams will have to actually adjust to Smith, whereas Black wouldn't have even gotten on the court.
