Aminu can defend and hit the occasional 3. He was not the problem. Our complete absence of competent big men was the problem. Where's MVP-era KG when you need him?

Aminu was a problem. He was a solid third option vs GS last year. Today he had 0 points and 3 rebounds. disaster.
 
Aminu shot competently from three-point range last year. That made him valuable as a small-ball four. He's regressed back to poor shooting and that's sapped his usefulness quite a bit. He's good defensively, but he doesn't provide much on offense which makes the team significantly easier to defend.
 
Aminu isnt a ball handler and he needs to stop playing like he is one. Every time today when tried to dribble and bring it inside to shoot it, he either lost the ball of his own volition, he got blocked, or he got stripped and it got stolen. Plus he missed the threes he took.
 
He is NOT good defensively. At best, he's average. He's too stupid to actually be a good defender - his only good defensive plays come from his wing span, not his brain.
 
Hopefully we can trade him to a team like Washington and get a 1st Round Pick. The dude needs to be gone. Same with Davis, Turner, Harkless, and Meyers.

Role payers are inconsistent? Who knew.

Terry's leash is too long w/ him but he is well above average for what he is-- a back up swing forward.

He's not above average for a backup anything.

He's trash. Airballing floaters, bricking 3s, traveling every game, always out of control, while getting scored on all the time. Dude is awful.

Put a guy like James Johnson in his place and we win at least 5 more games per season.

Compared to what he is getting paid ... he wasn't the worse of our ballers.
Allan Crabbe:
Mo:
Meyers:
E.T.:
Would you guys be open to get Nic Batum back for some of the overpaid chump we have? You would trade Nic for E.T. ? or Batum from Crabbe, Mo and or any combination of our scrubs for Nic ? Nic wasn't the most aggressive scorer ... but he could help with passing and rebound.
 
He had a terrible game today... Not sure that means he sucks though. I'd say he's an average NBA player.

If Nic was actually good enough to help his team get to the playoffs this year I doubt he would have played better than ET did today.
 
Both Aminu and Harkess rebounded very poorly today. Harkless in particular was slow to balls. 3 rebounds in 35 minutes was an issue for sure.

Aminu has to take the open 3s with confidence when they are there. The Warriors are sagging off of him and daring him to shoot like teams did last year. Occasionally his wild ass drives after a pump fake produce a basket, but not when the team you're playing against is giving you the open shot and waiting for you to drive. They aren't going to bite on the pump fake. He's going to have to make them pay from 3 a few times and then that pump fake and drive will be there, but he was just fucking us over every time he passed up an open 3 and tried to force a drive into opponents who were waiting for him. He'd have been more effective passing to someone else and then looking to crash the boards.
 
I've been done with Aminu since last season. I don't get all the "good defender" gibberish, he's not that good on D. His offense is average at best and I think his ridiculous shooting form is largely to blame. Trade, please.

I can top that. I was not at all enthused about the signing in the first place.
 
Maybe it's the low bbiq, but he reminds me of Travis Outlaw with some of the hair pulling things he does.
 
I don't think he sucks. He's just not a starter on a contender. Which we aren't close to being right now.
 
Aminu is our best defensive match vs Durant, and probably Klay Thompson as well. His job in this series will just be defense. He's not a bad player, he just needs to know his limitations.

I'd probably keep Harkless, but I don't get to watch the games.
