The "worthless" thing is getting annoying. Heard it with Babbitt, with Asik, etc

Not every player can be a star or even make Sportcenter highlights.

If you think a guy who played both PF and C last year and was one of the 5-10 best defensive rebounders in the entire league is "worthless", then your overall opinion means exactly nothing

It's worthless

I'm sorry, a guy who played 12.9 minutes per game (and even started 7 of them!) was a top 5-10 defensive rebounder in the league? Let me guess, you're one of the guys who thinks every summer league star is a HOF lock.

non-knowledgeable fans call TRob "worthless" because he didnt live up to his draft position...its stupid. robinson does one or two things really well and thats enough at the end of the bench. even a "worthless" player like austin rivers can be useful if you dont ask him to do more than he is capable of

this team's problem is that they repeatedly put limited players (90% of the league is "limited") in positions they cannot succeed in. the good teams have playmakers that can adapt to most game situations, and role players to do one or two things in limited minutes

if you start or play robinson 30 mins a game he's going to fail. if you insert him for a rebounding lift or as a small ball C strategically, he'll look great
