4 blocks in 17 minutes. When he finally starts for the Pistons he will def be a top 5 shotblocker. Probably top 3.

Oh man, Dion Waiters SUCKS. Haha. And some Cav fans defend this pick. So sad.

Jay Crowder has been very surprising for the Mavs these past 2 games.

I can't believe Okafor bites on this play, but whatever ended up with a strong dunk from Jonas :wink:
Looking for a new signature. Currently, still evaluating.

Probably because he can play off the other players on Detrioit and finish up plays, BKnight is a good pg to have too.

Jonas looks like a legitimate starting C already. He's just so active, never stops moving and he changes a ton of shots. Unfortunately, when he's out there with Bargnani, his man will just clean up plays since Bargs has no idea how to rotate if Jonas helps. I don't mind that Bargnani will be out for a few games since we'll get to see more JV-Davis line ups and Ed actually understands how to rotate and pick up.

Jonas does things that are not easy to teach when you're already in the league. So thankful for Cleveland on passing him up.

As a huge Dre fan for a couple years now and an even bigger Pistons fan... I am so glad he wasn't. ;)

2 drafts in a row CLE had me SMH

Am looking forward to many epic meetings between JV and Dre down the road.

That's gotta be one of the most bizarre up fakes i've ever seen!

(by Jonas)

Nice finish, though.
