Welcome Daniel Gafford 

Post#1 » by BliscoSantos » Sat Feb 10, 2024 6:04 pm

A thread to welcome the new big man to Dallas...like Luka said ,we've been waiting for an upgrade on this position far too long...I think him and Lively make a great pair od C's...now finaly Lively can be even more agressive on D, he doesn't have to worry as much about getting into foul trouble...Gafford is a good rim protector,shot blocker,he sets good picks and rebounds well...this is a really good signing and he might even start some games

I think Gafford should start in todays game as he's started everygame he's played in this year. He shoild easily get 2/3 bigtime dunks and then Mavs fans will be excited.

Welcome, before the seaaon I would've ranked Holmes higher than Gafford, I hope I'm wrong, he is a monster rim protector.

Really?...well Gafford looks really good...he can rebound, block shots,finish in the paint... you're gonna be able to go with the hot hand now that you have him and Lively...if Lively struggles you have Gafford and vice versa

I am very happy about Gafford. The Wizards are going to miss him.

We passed from Powell starting C to Gafford-Lively-Kleber.

Even Nico Harrison understood the problem here. Finally.

Indeed.
Well done by our front office and Gafford is signed for two more seasons.
