AA has been our best player this year!! complaining about him for any reason other than taking minutes away from young guys is bull! His actual play on the court has been great!

There are 82 games in an NBA season. There have been many rookies who started on crappy teams for their rookie season who never won ROY like DJ Augustin who never amount to anything. Not saying MCW is not legit, but I most backup PG's in this league can put up decent stats given 30 plus MPG.

MCW isnt just putting up raw stats... he's been efficient and getting a shitton of assists. He's been the real deal so far.

Point being, AA thinks he can take stupid ass shots only because he's on a crappy team. I never watched him in Denver, but did he ever play this iso ball kobe/wade/rose/lebron ****?

How is it a stupid shot when he makes the shot at a decent clip? You do not have to be a HOF to shoot a fadeaway out of a post up. Fading away out of the post is a common shot for a smaller post player. You are just straight up being silly.

Define decent.

He is 12-19 (63.2%) on 22 post ups plays this year. Has a scoring percentage of 59.1% Is THAT enough definition for you?

Look it up for your self if you want. http://mysynergysports.com/

No he didn't play like that in Denver, and no AA doesn't think he's on the same level as Kobe etc...

Idk why people are trying to reason with you. You don't have to like the guy but goodness you are exaggerating.

Game today. I'll try and post something everytime he does some stupid **** and count how many times he threw up some ****.

youre going to put his game under a microscope and nit pick every negative thing that happens while ignoring the massive amount if miscues dipo will have?.....big shocker there.

Well considering my whole thing is letting Dipo play because he needs to improve from these mistakes, I don't know what your point it.

And did you really compare a rookie to a seasoned vet concerning stupidity during the game? ...big shocker there :roll:

Shooting under 42% is not being efficient. I do like his ability to get some assists and boards tho. I think he has a future in this league, but I also thought Augustin did too. We will see how he survives a full season.

AA isn't the one who is getting "his" minutes alone so that isn't the point. You just don't like AA and that's fine.

Are you...are you being serious right now?

I had to on the last quote.

Its amazing what people say..Anyway, for the record I'm not 100% certain that tobias cant play with other scorers, its just a hunch based on his time in Milwaukee and a point that another poster had made in reference to Tobias, Aaron and Jameer coexisting.

Of course some people have their Tobias glasses shoved so far up their asses they immediately think I'm bashing when all I'm doing is making a statement. Careful not to comment on Harris outside declaring him a **** HOF'er or you'll get flammed.

Tobias glasses shoved up my ass? I'm just talking here. But what I see is a guy who can pass, can move very well without the ball, gets opportunistic baskets off offensive rebounds, who's efficient with his shots and isnt' overly selfish with the ball. If I'm missing something you see, so be it. If he hasn't been able to play with another scorer on the floor, then I missed it. But his stretch with us last year was the first consistent playing time in his career so it doesn't mean he can't learn. I see these attributes in his game, and I see someone that can definitely learn to play with another scorer.

AA Mid-range shooting percentages

16-23 Feet - 42.0%

10-15 Feet - 53.8%

That's damn good

BadMofoPimp · Post #1134 » by **BadMofoPimp** » Mon Nov 11, 2013 10:06 pm

AA only gets hate because he "takes" time away from youth. Well, I bet they say the same thing in every city that has rookies like in Philly when JRich over Evan Turner, Stuckey over KCP etc etc etc. Just the nature of the beast. AA has been a quality professional playing quality basketball on a decent contract. He is a legit starter in the NBA and sometimes shows some nifty Kobe moves. Oladipo has plenty of time to develop as there is no rushing this process. Just accept and enjoy the team is what I say as it is a loooong season.

Yeah, I wasn't much of a fan last year but you have to give credit where credit is due. Afflalo has been phenomenal so far this year. If he can keep this up I see no reason to move him.

I bet if we had drafted a PF or C rookie with the 2nd pick instead everyone would appreciate what Afflalo has done for this team.

You are just a pure hater. We get that you wanna see Vic (we ALL do), but Afflalo doesn't deserve to lose his spot. especially since Vic has struggled some. Besides, he can play at PG too. Jameer (who's my favorite player on this team) has struggled to start this season off. Why isn't anyone talking about him being replaced by Vic?

Vic has to earn his starting spot. And he will. Just not yet.

Orlwillbeback · Post #1140 » by **Orlwillbeback** » Mon Nov 11, 2013 10:46 pm

Jameer needs to be moved before anyone else. He has been ass this year.
