Good to see Sully doing a good job making sure we end up passing the Raptors in the standing. 17 mins, 1-5 shooting, 3pts and 2 rbs.

It's ok Raptors fans, i'm sure when he gets in shape he'll be an all star.

Of course David Lee goes to the Spurs and becomes a solid back up. Prick.

Solid back up where? Chinese league?

Because I don't consider averaging 6.7, 5.3, 1.6 solid.

I hadn't checked his stats tbf. :lol: Just felt like every time I watched the Spurs (Vs Us, Warriors and Cleveland), he's done well. I take that back. :D

in 17 mins with a per of 18 and fg% of near 60%. London is correct, he is a solid backup. Any other thought on the matter is just bias.

Shooting .353 on shots from 3-10 feet while playing no defense and drastically declining in your rebounding the past month is solid?

I think the word you are looking for is capable, playable, not solid.

Lee has been good at passing and general hustle/hard fouls this year. That's it. There is a lot more to the game.

He has been 10x the player he was for us (and plays with more effort than Diaw did) but that means nothing.

Right now, I'd rather have David Lee than Zeller or Mickey.

That makes no sense. Rubio and EP are basically the same player.

Predicting or reporting? Honestly, I'd rather have Payton because of finishing at the rim.

Predicting. Yes Rubio can't shoot but I think he handles the ball a lot better than Payton.

Sullinger defintely looks like he's put on weight. Over/under on the next Sully injury.
