OT: Zhou Qi

[Scalma]

If we're talking gettable bigs - what's going on with Lucas "Bebe" Nogueira?

Can he shoot? If he can’t, forget it.

 

[Mediocre Man]

No one here has ever said anything close to that. You seem too have a real problem with anyone saying anything positive about our team or one of our players. Are you rooting for Collins to fail so you can say, "I told you so"? You seem much more invested in your own negativity than the success of the team.

You'll say it was a joke. If it was, it wasn't funny the first 1000 times and gets less funny with each retelling.

BNM

Thank you for this. I'll take each word to heart.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Zach played PF the majority of his rookie season.

A few caveats:

• Next season we are playing him at Center.
• He's was born of two white American parents.
• He was born in Las Vegas, NV, a city in America.

He now fully meets the necessary criteria to receive the brunt of @Mediocre Man's hate for WABC.

I mean, we should've been known this was coming once NO showed Ed the door.

Is he playing center next season? Did I miss that somewhere?

Serious question.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Man I don’t have anybody in this joint on IGNORE. Just thought i’d Have some fun before I hopped on the plane.

We talked about wanting to have fun here a week ago. Not happening any longer

 

[BonesJones]

Is he playing center next season? Did I miss that somewhere?

Serious question.

Do you not realize that we let Ed Davis go?

 

[jlprk]

Well, I haven't been checking the board...Hmm, this looks good. I've always wanted to learn more about Zhou Qui.

I read this whole educational thread! I never knew all those things about Zhou Qui. He is now my favorite player! My thanks and kisses go out to all the experts on this board.

And you positive guys keep on criticizing the negative guys and showing us how to be positive!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Do you not realize that we let Ed Davis go?

I think the correct way to answer that is no?

We have other bigs. Collins is not a 5, so why play him there?

We are going on assumptions, educated, but assumptions

 

[THE HCP]

Who merged my thread with this shit storm???

 

[Reep]

Is he playing center next season? Did I miss that somewhere?

Serious question.

Stotts was interviewed at Summer League and indicated Zach would play at the 5 and the 4. Seemed to have a bit more emphasis on the 5. Sounded like any of our hopes that he might start Zach next to Nurk would not happen. Seemed set on bringing him in for a three man rotation with Nurk and Aminu.

I was really just fucking with you.

Thanks. The only thing I recall him saying is he would play closer to the basket

Ya, that’ll happen. That would be like you saying you’ll only post positive posts! HA!

Olshey said he let Davis to because he wanted Collins to play more minutes and to play the 4 and the 5. Were not going off assumptions.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Ya, that’ll happen. That would be like you saying you’ll only post positive posts! HA!

I think this is your best post ever

 

[THE HCP]

I think this is your best post ever

You obviously had me on IGNORE for years.....cause there are some CLASSICS!

 

[stampedehero]

I think I may have overestimated Zhou Qi's upside. As much as Zach Collins struggled as a rookie, Zhou was WAY worse on the offensive end. Here's a comparison of the advanced stats for their rookie years:

View attachment 22047

The only thing Zhou did better than Zach is block shots - in 124 minutes of pure garbage time. Plus, he's two years older than Zach with three years experience playing professionally in China.

BNM

The kid only played 18 games. He can block anyone under 5' tall

 

[Mediocre Man]

I was being positive. You know, wool over my eyes, everything is great

Jordan Clarkson is on that Phillipines team. Dude played in the NBA Finals.

 

[jlprk]

I keep re-reading this thread to learn about Zhou Qi. It makes me smarter every day.

Does Qi mean Gay in Chinese? Asking for a friend.

 

[Mediocre Man]

So did A_am Morrison

 

[Boob-No-More]

So did A_am Morrison

No, he didn't. Morrison's entire post season career consisted of 13 minutes of first round garbage time. He wasn't even on the active roster during the finals the year he "won" a ring with the Lakers. Adam Morrison has never even been in a uniform for an NBA finals game, let alone actually played in one.

Pick any shitty player. Luc Longley? Phil Nevin? Alan Abdelnabi?

Since we are being pretty, he won 2 rings with the Lakers.

Your comment added so much. We all thank you

Pardon my accuracy, sorry it offended you. The fact is Adam Morrison never played in the NBA finals. Bad example on your part.

He won 2 rings. Not 1. If you pardon your accuracy, and be that guy, be accurate

 

[Boob-No-More]

Yes, he won two rings. In 2009, without playing one second in the playoffs, and in 2010 while playing 13 minutes in the first round. He never came close to playing in the finals.

Again, bad example on your part. Adam Morrison never even played in the second round, let alone the NBA finals.

BNM

 

[e_blazer]

Good grief the board is boring lately. Looking through the thread titles, I wonder if "Holy Sh*t" means the same thing as "Zhou Qi". Who knows, it may even be roughly the same as "HCP", which could be an acronym for "Holy Crap, Percival".

God, I'm bored.
