Horford back to regular mode

Shame there isn't a layup botch out all star weekend, we'd have a lot of good candidates.

Of course Horfraud gives up an offensive rebound to Vonleh.

Can we sign Rasheed Wallace out if retirement this team needs some nasty in the front court, even if they can't walk very good

I know its for a good cause, but I've been seeing this MHG pin as the Citgo sign ever since coaches started doing it this year.

Ball is just as good but he plays with more fire and all around just looks better than Fultz.

Ball flat out can't break down a defense and get to/finish at the rim like Fultz can. Fultz plays with mediocre offensive players with terrible spacing and still easily gets to the basket in the half court. Ball plays with shooters around him and almost never does. Ball is the better playmaker but Fultz is a good playmaker too. Ball has his advantages for sure, but there's nothing he can do that Fultz is flat out incapable of doing IMO. Whereas Fultz does things Ball can't.


Fultz can do things against college scrubs but he won't be able to in the NBA. Ball's deep range, passing, leadership and BBIQ are tailor made for the NBA. Ball also wins and makes teammates better unlike Fultz.

Name a superstar in the league that can't beat defenders one on one and get to the basket consistently (or just create offense for themselves in general)? Ball will be very good in the NBA, he just has less superstar potential to me. Fultz ability to shoot off the dribble, hit contested shots, and get to the basketball will absolutely translate. Whatever team Fultz goes to will immediately have significantly better spacing than Washington, giving him a lot more room to operate.

I'm not even worried about Marcus' jumper anymore. In the offseason, I want him spending ALL of his shooting time in the paint.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!
