i thought he looked blah last night. walking around, low motor, struggling to move. some uncotested rebounds and a high iq strip. looks good in a blowout win. he is a really awful player. yeah he was injured last year, you can count on more of that a continued rapid drop off a cliff for him. he is a broken down decrepid corpse.
That’s a little off the rails, Prok. You don’t need to disrespect the man. He’s not whatsoever that and and nobody in the organization believes that or sees that. Dude, you read anything in that ESPN article?
I call it like i see it. no disrespect. father time and injuries catch up to everyone. Chandler was a good player for a while. He just isnt that now. He cant move well for a guy that already wasnt super athletic and he has one of the lowest motors around. Wide open corner three? sure. not much use beyond that.
I'd take shumpert 11 times out of 10 over him without thinking twice.
People are enamored with chandler on name value, not for who he actually is at this point
"Motor" as you interpret it is overrated. "He has a tremendously simple game and that’s a good thing, and understands the system," Atkinson said. "He’s one of those 4, 3, 2s, doesn’t matter, he can play any of those positions. Last thing is defense. We talk about losing Shump, but we’re gaining a guy that is a really good defender in this league."
