Yeah he's a rough and tumble type of undersized rebounder. Reminds me a little of Reggie Evans with less bite.


Weren't he and Reggie Evans both rocking the bald head and beard look while on the same team?? lol

Yeah saw that. Not sure why he,isn't getting a chance in the states. Dude played well over there last season. He has also matured and now has a family. The AR of today, is not the AR of old.

Maybe he's enjoying being a focal point of a team, and not the 12th man copping "bust" jokes constantly.

Just a thought.

He tried, but found no takers in the NBA. I think there is a league wide perception of who they think he still is. Maybe George Karl doesn't have nice things to say about him when asked, or if asked.

Based on his situation in life now, and his still relatively young ability, I definitely feel he is an NBA player. It's just tough sometimes to shake an old label...cough MgGee....cough

Nitpciking on your part. Doubt he could have got back into the play after flying by anyhow....I'd blame the little euro's more for not doing anything. Or maybe give Dorsey some props for staying with it. But the block took Randolph out of it anyhow, regardless of the stare to the crowd. The block was sick, can't fault the dude for loving it.

Not nitpicking, it's something major. You don't celebrate until the play is over regardless of whether you could do anything to prevent it or not.

You're right. I must have been thinking about someone else. I remember Nellie drafting a PF in the 2nd round who I thought was pretty good but Nellie wasn't interested in guys who although good rebounders and defenders couldn't shoot. I thought for sure the guys name was Dorsey. Thanks for the correction.

No it waqsn't Lasme. He was a SF who played like a PF. Didn't he have something like 6 blocks in a game in college? Reminds more of Draymond than Steph being an undersize 4 who could defend. The guy I'm thinking of was a bruiser.

Watching Westbrook shoot 30 times a night would be maddening if I had to play with him. He's great though, but dang.

You'll never watch a guy with a more burning desire to be MVP to the detriment of his team more than Westbrook this season. It's Kobe just after Shaq left all over again.

On NBATV the other night they said something like the Warriors have had 30+ assists 13 times this year and OKC had 30+assists 12 times in Durant's 8 years there. :lol:
