But his per48 numbers are through the roof!! They put D12's numbers to shame.

BTW Soul, you must be an awesome talent evaluator/scout. In 3 minutes of garbage time you're able to make such a sweeping evaluation of his abilities.


He was talking about Foyle. I know he didn't use a quote or ^^^ but I am sure he was referring to the comment above his, which was how Foyle brings toughness and defense.

To comment on that, I actually think Foyle does well on the offensive glass. If he doesn't get it, he is in position to keep it alive.

Yeah I meant Foyle..

Solid.. he's alright, but I swear to god half the time it tips off of his fingers after he gets it. Jameer is a better rebounder @ his size than Foyle is at his size.. I just wish he had better hands. He also jumps back a lot while getting offensive rebounds which annoys me, just go straight up!

More than doubling his NBA all-time minutes, Gortat had another dominant per 48 performance.

The really cool thing about Gortat getting into Tuesday's game....really all of the guys who have been on the bench for so much of the season....is all the starters and key backups were on the bench standing and cheering for them. They were really happy for them! Whenever they would score or get a rebound, the guys would jump and cheer for them.

it seems gortat leads all the cheering from the bench during the game so it is nice to see how much our starters appreciate the guys on the end of the bench..... gortat must be loving the minutes hes getting it is really big for his confidence... now we will see if he can get some burn when it matters.
Summertime and the livin's easy....
