At least we learned that without a doubt Holmes should be seeing all of the Lively backup minutes until further notice.
I watched quickly after waking up and didn't pay much attention, but I'll need to go back and look thoroughly at Holmes minutes, the fact Kidd decided to go with him instead of Powell is telling they are seeing something in practice, and that they are recognizing the horrible on/off data with Powell.
Seriuosly, did they need to see something in training? Were 10 years of an NBA career not enough?
I can understand that Cuban,Beibau,ejs78 or some other forum posters who have wrong opinion, at the end of the day they are only basketball fan with no real knowledge. It's normal.
But we have well paid GM, coach and assistants here for judge players.
Powell can't play in real games, he can shine a little bit against garbage team like i said million times but it's fool's gold.
He has no basketball skills, no size, no wing span.. he has only hustle.Seriuosly.
The NBA garbage time is terrible, i've seen scrubs play like MJ. People won't understand it.
Do you remember freakin Kevin Looney how played in WCF? An average NBA player who looks like Kareem.
That's the Powell effect.
I remember first Powell years here, the Carlisle plan was make it an athletic PF with midrange/3 point shoot.
It was a smart decision, he worked hard for that...for sure... but he simply has no Basketball skills/talent.
Just a good athletism, great Locker room activities and a great heart. No more. I'm sorry.
After then Luka arrived here he maked everybody better so Powell looked like a NBA player.
But it's wrong. Totally wrong.
He is still a 14/15th guy just like Pinson.
Holmes is an average NBA C, but he play another sport compared to Powell.
