Buna ziua din romania
Hello my friends in the states,greetings from romania.
I am really happy about the team performance the last three games.
But the most impressive is the rise of uncle drew.Great that he finally delivers.Mr skiles seems to be the right coach for him.

He looks so much better on the court, moving, passing & rebounding. I bet he's excited to come to games again.

I primarily watch games just for Nicholson now. Dude is the only one on this team who plays smart, active, and without a chip. **** everybody else, seriously. This team just doesn't seem to have that cohesiveness right until Nicholson steps in - no joke. He almost always makes the right pass, perfectly timed pump fakes, etc...
I'd like to see him put in the post more and be an offensive focal point. Good to see his 3P game getting up there, but he's still more comfortable in the post. Skiles, put him in the damned post!
Andrew Nicholson >>> Z-Bo.

So you're saying you have no credibility?

So I assume - judging by this thread, dear Patrick from buena ziua Romania - that you no longer want to trade for Bobby Portises of the world now?

AN has been phenomenal, playing with confidence makes a huge difference. I am happy we kept the guy, he has always had the skill to be very effective, but now he is versatile.

Nicholson & Frye have been effective in ORL's new defensive scheme. D-Rating w/Nicholson: 91.0 per 100 poss; w/Frye: 97.0 per 100.

haha I stole it from The Hobo in an old thread.
I am glad he is getting a chance to show something and hope he will continue to come into his own as a player. I am glad we didn't just dump him for nothing a la Mo Harkless.

Talk about taking your opportunity to shine. WOW. As for his play in the last three games, this suggests to me that he is a perfect complement to Oladipo. (and vice versa).

They've both been putting more energy on defense this year. Skiles is doing very well with team defense from top to bottom. Cue Vaughn tear drop...

The Skiles system: making slow and unathletic power forwards SHINE.

it's 3 games....he needs to sustain the play, he's always had spurts of solid play, then hits the wall
