You don't follow the Nuggets it sounds like. Karl will most definitely not use him as you described. It does sound like Karl is viewing him as this year's DJ, which means no matter how much Joey sucks, he has the starters job locked up.

Gotta love Karl. :lol:

As long as Graham is not shooting long-jumpers and handling the ball often, then he should still be fine. Basically, he just sucks playing the wing on O. Try to get the ball inside or mid-range. His defense overall is good. He defended Kobe and LeBron last year pretty well too.
Basketball is like poetry in motion, cross the guy to the left, take him back to the right, he's fallin back, then just J right in his face. Then you look at him and say, "What?" - Jesus Shuttlesworth

Sorry, I should have gone more in to detail. In the "DJ role" he will have Graham playing on the wing and shooting long jumpers.

Joey was misused from the get go in Toronto; he isn't going to be a front line scorer but he brings toughness and he can run. If he gets some regular burn/a role that is defined and a coach that will put him in regularly he'll be productive. For all the muscle/toughness he possesses ironically there is something of a fragile mindset that comes along with that. I wish him well. With a clear role and some support he could produce...or he'll fade to bench.

Generalizing is stupid..don't say "Rap fans" say that (Please Use More Appropriate Word)'s name please

Joey's good for ~10 minutes a game..sometimes more. He's a good player to have coming off your bench as he looks to drive it to the hoop a lot (something he's improved on). He's a good rebounder and good post-up defender..we put him on Dwight before and he held his ground..although, I wouldn't try that again. His mid-range J is pretty decent as well and he can post up.

I would say his weaknesses are mental and his handles aren't as great..usually his drives are straight to the rim, generating charges from time to time (use to be ALL the time). He was a PF in college, so the transition to a wing has been a little tough for him. I think his understanding of what he should be doing during plays is a little weak too - based on the reactions from our teammates and former coach.
