Got to the 8:49 mark of the Rambis post game interview after the Rockets loss. Finally someone just flat out ask him a question about what the hell the guy is playing. Sad thing is, Sasha got even more time the next game. Even Jim Pete was getting sick of Sasha, listen to how he commentates when Sasha is in the game.

It would be safe to assume a coach was tanking if they played Pavlovic as much as Rambis has.

It would be safe to assume a gm was tanking if they payed Pavlovic as much as Kahn has.

You'll be thanking Sasha when we have John Wall or Evan Turner!

Seriously though, there's only 18 games left in the season, and teams that aren't going to make the play offs will begin giving more minutes to guys like Sasha. Last season, without Al, the Wolves went 4-5 in their last 9 games, because they were suddenly facing rosters as woeful as their own. We're a long-term team, and while its hard to be patient now, we just need to hold our nose for another month, then optimism can reign supreme.

I'd rather go see a donkey show than have to watch that.

I would imagine no one outside of Darko and Rambis. He strikes me as someone who doesn't shower, and he'd be someone who lets out a nasty fart on the bench and sit there grinning like a douche.

The only explanation I have for Sasha playing so much is that he is worse in bench warming than playing basketball which is hardly imaginable. :P

I fear the blatant tank job will draw the ire of the Basketball Gods...

Either thats a typo, or are you really that bothered that Pavlovmiss is making $1.5 mil this year?

Can't honestly imagine they would bring him back.

I'm bothered that he's getting paid anything.

Whatever, you're all just jealous that you don't get paid a million dollars to help an NBA franchise lose.

Here's a fun fact for you all. Sasha's two highest scoring games this season were also our two biggest losses.

He used to be decent what happened to him? He had some big games for Serbia at one point I thought he could become a star.

Not sure. He looked like he had a chance to be decent at one point, then he and Varejao did that holdout thing to attempt to get some more money, and Sasha's sucked ever since.
