really - either he is in the wrong place at the wrong time or he just tips it out to the opponent
Prediction for this season: Spurs beat Heat 4:2 in the finals (the revenge of Pop)
I don't like it, but it is highly possible this season with IND and OKC struggling

I know VC screwed up that last play, but I have to say, I am quite comfortable with the ball being in his hands in these situations. It's these situations with Nash out, it's nice to have an ISO player like VC who can create his own play.

In the second half please stick with Dudley and Gortat - PLEASE.
NO to Lopez tonight.

Haha Lopez Starting Center Rebunds = 0 Is it possible in NBA. Maybe someone forgot to tell him that rebunds exists.

Lopez has not been great, but at times, he has been where he needs to be. He has had three good double teams that resulted in a Portland turnover, and a block by him. He needs to learn how to grab the ball instead of tipping it. I still think he is not 100% yet. And was someone calling for the Twin Tower of Awkwardness? :o

I forgot to say earlier welcome to the board!

Also the limit for image size in your sig is 400 pixels wide by 90 pixels tall at most so when you get a chance resize or switch it out :D

It is shocking to see our best shooters bricking easy free throws.

Love the hustle from the guys, but dang Robin, will you ever become a decent rebounder? And on that note, why are we starting a guy at center who looks like the worst rebounding seven footer in the history of the league?

Lopez is frustrating. He has the potential to be a good C but he's just soft. When he should be boxing out and going up strong for rebounds he instead is behind his man and trying to tip the ball. Similarly, when he should be going up strong for a dunk, he instead ties to layup and often misses.

He's just way too soft atm.
