Has Batum hit a wall?

[MIXUM]

Has looked almost invisable lately on the court. Maybe he hears webster is about to return. Anyhow, i think we need webster back. batum did great things for us early but now its time to for webster to grab that starting spot. he should help us a lot early in games with the three ball. Batum has a way to go yet.

Batum was trying to make a Hamburger in bed and he used a Wall to spread the Mayo on the bun (he is French, don't attack me, I am just the messenger). Then he fell asleep and rolled over and hit a wall.

Oh, someone needs to help me stop with it. I can't get enough of AppleGate.

It is possible. I think most people underestimate the influence that extensive travel can do to someone. He's probably traveled more this season already than during any other season he's done. Certainly he's traveled more miles.

The travel takes a toll man! I think the other part might be that LA has stepped up his game, Blake is clicking right now. There is only so much he can do. If you watched this past trip, he got his hands on some loose balls and played great weak side team D that might not show up in the box score. I think he filling the roll perfectly.

The turning point was the Hornets game it seems. He was coming off his best game (vs the Heat) and has been on the decline ever since. I think he'll round back into form during our home stand.

small sample size alert, but check out his home/away splits, he's much better at home

doesnt matter anyway, webster will be starting by this time next week if not friday vs the clippers

Gotta be tough for a 19-year-old to come in and be asked to do what he's done, with this many road games. He's gotta be a little fatigued by it all. But he's still doing the little things defensively and the hustle plays, he got a big board against Toronto down the stretch.
I think anything we got from Nicolas offensively was gravy anyway, we just ask him to play D and move the ball and board.

But once Martell gets fully healthy, I wouldn't mind seeing him back with the starters and Nicolas being another energy guy off the bench in that second unit.
When you put Nicolas with Rudy, Sergio, Travis and Joel... that should be just fast-break all the time.
