So much for the Maynor experiment

[Shooter]

I know it's only been two games, but so far Eric Maynor has been no better than our previous backup point guards--and maybe even worse. The guy seems to have zero confidence in his shot and no clue how to make things happen on the court.

let's hope he's actually better than this.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Really?

He's only had one practice with the team. WAY too early.

What game are you watching?

I nominate this for worst thread of the year.

Seriously,

What.

The.

Fuck.

 

[magnifier661]

What?! Maynor doing a fine job!

 

[Shooter]

What game are you watching?

I'm watching Denver vs. Portland. The real question is, what game are YOU watching, because it certainly isn't this one.

Lay off the drugs Talkhard.

 

[Shooter]

Maynor is 0-4 from the field tonight with a PER of -12. Maybe YOU should lay off the drugs, Zagger.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Maynor is no Brook Lopez.

 

[Natebishop3]

Seriously..... he's playing the toughest position in the NBA to just walk in and pick up. Is that so hard to figure out?

 

[B-Roy]

I think he did fine. He can't make shots, but he's running the offense a hell of a lot better than Price and Smith.

 

[Natebishop3]

I'm sure a lot of it has to do with him pressing, wanting to make a good impression.

 

[TowelBoy]

Dumb thread. 0-4 isn't someone with "no confidence" in his shot. It's someone confident enough to jack 4 shots in 14 minutes, realize it's not his night, and still manage to notch 3 assists. He's been with the team a week. I have a lot more faith in him running the team than Nolan or Price.

 

[Shooter]

The hell he is. Price was just as good as this guy at running the point. I see no substantial difference between them so far.

How about that pass to Leonard for the jam? I've never seen Price do anything remotely like that.

Are you kidding?? This guy has been in the league for three years. He should be able to step right in and make a significant contribution.

So you expect him to know all the plays and have a chemistry with his teammates after only one game?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We need a nice white backup point guard like Steve Blake.

Give me a break. There was nothing so unusual about that pass. It was the dunk that was spectacular.

Haha... ok.... Stick to your politics Shooter.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Price and nolan get stripped a lot. Maynor can handle the ball.

Regardless, who gives a shit? We gave up nothing for him and get an audition leading into free agency.

Seems like an overreaction after the guys 2nd game.

 

[B-Roy]

The hell he is. Price was just as good as this guy at running the point. I see no substantial difference between them so far.

Price could barely get the ball over the court before the 8 second count. And when he did, he'd dribble out the clock because he can't make simple entry passes.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Well I'm glad you really waited for the evidence to mount before you made up your mind Shooter ...

 

[Natebishop3]

I'm not going to lie, he hasn't been super impressive so far, but it's only been two damn games. Give the guy some time to learn the system and acclimate to his new surroundings before tossing him under the bus.

 

[Shooter]

Haha... ok.... Stick to your politics Shooter.

And you can go back to taking walks with your dog for the blind.

I'm not even sure if that's an insult. Thanks?

Dude, he totally just called your mother a slut.

Go back and read my original post and you'll see how wrong you are.

He makes me miss ProudBFan. Never should have traded him for magnifier661.

We all knew you were an idiot after only three posts.
