Simmons doesn't bother me all that much. He hasn't been taking too many shots, and has been hitting around 45% over the past few days. Defense from the SF is not as vital as other positions. Yes, I think that is the glaring place where the Nets should upgrade if they have a chance, but he isn't hurting the nets as much as Yi right now.
Who gives a shit? On a night when the Nets prove they have potential this season and win a huge game in dramatic fashion, we are treated to a question that aims to be pissant and negative...and so very typical.
doesn't Yi like have a strained neck or something maybe thats why hes struggling.
And his problems are above the neck.Here's been performing below expectations for a while now, so the neck injury isn't an excuse.
Of course they both played their best game right after this thread was posted.
They don't need to carry the team, they just need to play their roles like they did tonight.
Wut! and I was all set to have a lynching party! I'll put the torches back in storage. Funny, Yi and Simmons have a good game and everyone is confused, like WTF, who can we hate now?
I would love to be wrong but a handful of games aint gonna cut it. Build off this game and show me more.
Not every player in the NBA is an All-Star. What do they need to show you?
You were the one who was so adamant about young players getting all the playing time and now you are complaining that Yi is such a weak player at his position.
Then when he has a good game you say "show me more". What's that about?

Simmons may be playing well for him but there is no way his stats equal 10 million (avg) for this year and next. If they could package him and another player in a trade - the Nets should jump on it
He doesn't have to be an All-Star. Just better than what he was when I posted the thread. Last night was a step in that direction. I hope he builds off that.Not every player in the NBA is an All-Star. What do they need to show you?

Yes, I want the young kids to play. I never said Yi's minutes should be cut.
Yes, I want him to show me more. You want him to show you less?
I'm willing to live and die this season with Lopez, Yi, Anderson, CDR, Boone and Sean Williams getting significant minutesNo. I understand that he isn't really ready to be a solid NBA starter yet and I am willing to wait for his experience to catch up to his skills.
But if you are calling for all the young players to get major minutes, it seems strange to complain when they look bad (and even stranger to be negative about it when they do well). They are playing against better players who are know how to make things tough on inexperienced ones.
