Im ready to give up on davis as the backup center, give all those mintues to clark, and I wouldnt mind looking at harper to see if we can upgrade the backup 4.

Duhon probably leads the league in fouling a player that go on to score, actually I think dohun's fouls increase the opposing player's precantages.

We did... he's on the bench not playing unfortunately... Stan loves Duhon for some reason

Don't know if Ish is "solid", but, he can't be any worse than Duhon...

Exactly... at least Ish can handle the ball and get in transition... and attack off the high-screen... that instantly makes him better than Duhon

Darko has no answer for JJ. On either end.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I wouldn't call Ish solid. I would like to see if he's solid though.

Earl looks better at C than Davis anyway, so I agree... plus it gives us a reason to have Earl on the floor hustling... lucky for Earl, he's 6'11 and 240/50lbs... so he can get away with playing there.. even though Stupid Otis still didn't get us a back-up C :nonono:

His first game was enough to tell me he's better than Duhon... solid may be a stretch... but a back-up PG is definitely certain

A Dwight/Earl front-court... get ready for a crap load of blocks
