Wow what I tell ya about that soft ass GP2

it’s reported his teammates are sick of his shit
 
That's a lot to ask of an undrafted 6'8" center making the NBA minimum. Frankly, if he had two games like this in a season, he's earned his contract in my book.

Consider the source.
 
Why did the Blazers cut Garza? That guy can score. He's made a tip-in off another players shot, and "and-one" and a 3-pointer from the corner in the last couple minutes of the game.
 
Watford had a great game... he deserves credit but as per usual some of you are such captives of the moment. If Watford was a featured part of our rotation, he would get scouted and exploited. I like the guy and he's a good bench piece to have but let's not lose our minds.
Our current starter is Eubanks. Is Eubanks irreplaceable?
 
Impressive comeback win! It was disappointing they got down so much in the first half, but an incredible run in the 2nd half with so many players contributing.
 
Imaging complaining about slow starts when the game is predicated on runs and it happens ALL the time.

We won.
 
Jazz didn’t play Orlando tonight.
Lol.
Anyway , Utah and Minnesota lost at home to eastern conference teams.

or I should say, they lost at their respective homes to eastern conference teams. They each have a home.
 
He didn't play one second of PF tonight.

I realize that. But my point is that he can which would allow us to go big when we need to. Get a center who defends the rim, play Grant at the 3 on occasion,
and have Watford play 4. That unit has size.

Playing him at C also works, but that does not work against every team.
 
He didn't play one second of PF tonight.

I'm going to come at that from a different angle simply because every team in the league spends time playing without a C on the floor. I saw several defensive sets where Grant was on Porzingis and Watford was on Gafford. Which one was a C? I'm not even sure Porzingis is a C the way he plays

I think for a player like Watford, calling him a C or a PF is seeing distinction when there is no difference

A lot of coaching systems anymore don't even do the PF or C or even 1-2-3-4-5. They just break it down into bigs and guards.

that could be the case

for clarity of my own mind, I think of it as PG-Wing-Big; and the lines between are all blurred a little
