God, poor Rui... he must be in some real pain!

Pasecniks is posting a good TS% on low usage but otherwise he hasn't played particularly well for the gogo. Still, it'll be nice to get a look at him for a few games.

Is a guy who can only get 10/5 in the G league really NBA caliber? Maybe I'm wrong but there has to be a more talented big than that, even if he's only 6'9 instead of a 7 footer.

This guy was really good at something really bad, I just can't remember what it was.

I think it was not finishing around the rim, rebounding, and defense.

It's harder to project big man talent from the G-League to the Pros. Some big men have skills that just don't show up in the less structured G-League with inferior spacing and passing. Pasecniks has better G-League stats than Wagner did, for example.

I'm not saying Pasecniks will be a serviceable pro. I'm just saying the fact that his G-League stats are lackluster doesn't rule out the possibility.

My thoughts exactly, this team is totally bereft of any athleticism at ALL positions currently and what do we have on deck, a softy Euro.

Didn't he play for the Wiz during the summer league and/or pre-season? He was awful, but on the other hand, Wiz don't play D this season and they need big bodies. Maybe he can give you 10-15 mins and use those 5 fouls.

Look, the guy's a body. We need a body for the next little stretch. It would be no surprise to see them cut his cable once Bryant & Wagner are back -- & then re-sign Chiozza!

Heck all that may be worked out in advance w/ Chiozza's agent.

I note that Friday is the day they have to guarantee Jordan McRae for the season. He's injured, but that shouldn't prevent Tommy from doing it.

Props to Pasecniks, he came in from the G and contributed well, obviously not a banger but he played with good BBIQ.

I didn’t see the game but I’m glad to hear AP had a nice first game.

Lol Justin & Rui somehow missed having to sing with the rookies. Too bad they didn’t have the new Go Go player sing. He sang back in his days in Auburn, well at least he did this time....
