I like that Paolo’s getting all that (and more than) he can handle in terms of SL responsibility. Results are mixed, but having him try it is smart.

I mean, how many 6’10” 250 dudes are bringing it up and trying to run offense in OT of any game? Fun to see.

Reminds me of Lamar Odom.

Odom was way more passive. Paolo is like an alpha Odom.

Well, Liddell was taken with the same pick as Jokic :wink:

I know it's trolling, but would you be willing to bet that EJ Liddell never gets a stop or blocks the shot of an all NBA or better player?


Liddell first needs to earn a single NBA minute.


Even if he never plays a single minute in the NBA, it’s still idiotic logic. Guarantee you Shaq, David Robinson, Hakeem, or any hall of fame big who played college ball at some point in their careers got blocked by a stiff who didn’t even make the league, lol. It’s just dumb, pure and simple.


It doesn't look good for EJ earning those NBA minutes...

Really you come back to make this argument? Your original take on this was dumb enough as it is. You gotta come back with doubling down the dumb arguments? Liddell tearing his ACL helps your original argument how exactly?

I was thinking the SAME EXACT THING! Every time I see DroseReturnChi I already know theres some form of troll argument going on.
