Sanders is averaging 6/6 with 1.8 blocks

That's awful

shite they put John Henson into the same role Sanders was in last year and he outperformed Sanders by a mile

I have a feeling Sanders is going to be making a lot of money off of one decent season, until people eventually catch on that he is nothing special

And I don't want Mayo within a mile of this organization. Why trade one shithead SG for another shithead SG?

quote:

Evans was fricking horrible his first twenty games this season

And now he's the only facilator and the only person that can create his own shot on the entire fricking roster. On a reasonable contract.

And we want to trade him for OJ fricking Mayo?

no thanks

The camera data from his breakout year says he was awesome, that's not just some useless advanced stat created by a math nerd for other math nerds to geek out with, this is actual break down of game footage and comparing players across the league.

quote:
Sanders and the Indiana Pacers' Roy Hibbert each held opponents to a league-low 38 percent on shots inside 5 feet, which is nearly way worse than the 49.7 percent the league shoots from that distance with somebody in the neighborhood on average. He also allowed the lowest field-goal percentage (34.9 percent) when within 5 feet of an opponent's shot, which, again, is way worse than the 45.6 percent the league shot on average with a qualifying defender that close.

My main question with Sanders isn't whether he can still protect the rim, it's whether another skinny rim protector solves our defensive problems.

Sanders has played 15 injury riddled games this year

That's point about Evans. All of the morons wanted to crucify him after a shaky start.

Of course ideally you want to trade Gordon if the bucks bite on that package. I'd say they probably ask for more (Evans). With the recent rumors of both being on the block, do you sacrifice one of your navy ball dominant guards in exchange for a elite defender/rebounder (your opinion nonwithstanding)?
