I wonder if Amir's great D is related to the fact he fouls like crazy. Foul, no score. Get off the court. Better odds than being on the court with this team.

hahaha So much more fun when the shackles are released.
I would have hoped those offensive stats would translate to more wins. But alas, it seems that unless defence is improved, it doesn't matter how you come by your offence.
Hey. Eastcoastrapsfan? My banishment should hopefully end by game time tonight.
Too quiet office means we're ready to make a splash? I call shenanigans.
People don't like to compare because Andrea isn't an MVP caliber player. But aside from whether Andrea would hit the big shot when needed, their games look very comparable. Bottom line is a big man...
You can't not be feeling this...

Role player not playing his role. His role is to suck on the bench.
I wonder if it's too soon to hope for ED to take over starting PF duties by next season. But long term for sure Amir is great off the bench.
I wonder how Raps Nation would react if it were...
After hitting that shot, being 1 for 7 prior, he can look good doing any dance he wants. Maybe that was the point.
Damn we just needed him to be fundamentally sound last night.
Forget pick n rolls. On that play, the ball should have been given to Barbosa to let him iso on any defender chosen by Atlanta. Everyone else just clear out.
Funny thing is I feel like DeRozan...
Aside from the usual star players, I'd say Nash to get it out of our system.
Otherwise, it hit me when Dirk said Tyson Chandler changed their team defensively this year. How he made such a huge...
Yep, I always say he needs to add a pull up J to his arsenal. Right now, when he drives, he drives with the purpose of getting to the rim. He tucks the ball in like a running back, and I feel like...
Chauncey is never a good example. All the teams he failed on would have been crazy to wait around year after year. If a guy won't pan out for another five years (and if he's not a rookie), you need...
I also believe in Sonny. I think he tried too hard because he had an opportunity for a fat contract. But he'll come back and do the things he did last year. Money on his midrange J, and play D. ...
My only concern is we're not giving Bayless many minutes now. Albeit he's been injured lately, but if him and Jose were healthy, who'd get the minutes? If we go into the offseason and we're still...
For us to make the playoffs, we'll need DeMar to continue putting up numbers, or for Jay to start thinking defence, or both.
Welcome DJ! Funny to see you here.
I think Raptor fans recognize Bargs isn't taking many 3pt shots any more. But around the NBA his old reputation still persists. You'll watch a broadcast of the opposing team and they talk about him...
I think the toughest part of going from SG to PG is your handle. And Bayless has the handles. I think the part where you learn to pass first can come with time. And he gets to watch Jose.
I...
I'd say generally you have two seasons...if you're lucky. There are always new "projects" coming into the league every season. I've actually liked a bit of what I've seen from Alabi, but the...
I can't help but feel like we did more damage to Bayless by playing him before he was ready.
We need ED to be good enough to cover for Bargnani on the defensive end of the floor. That's the only way both play together. Otherwise ED's only a backup. Hopefully he has it in him because he...
All the more reason we need to surround Bargs with a defensive big to cover him on the other end of the floor. Amir Johnson bless his heart isn't that guy.
Imagine if Dallas asked Dirk to bulk up...
