Love it when I am right, especially about Favors screen setting.

Yeah, he played well against another PF playing C, keep getting your hopes up kid.

Btw, are we saying that a PF isn’t supposed to be setting screens? He did a great job at setting picks, which can be made from the PF position also.....

When Jah comes back, Favors should be at the 4 and Okafor at the 5....like I’ve said before.

Kid?

99% I'm older than you are.

Let's take this approach, what about Favors game leads you to believe he should be a full time 4?

All you say is he's undersized and gets abused, which is just not true at all, and your other reason is because you do it on 2k (which is even stupider than the undersized statement)

I’m getting downvoted for saying Favors should play PF, really?


Because you are proving how little you know about Favors. The experts have consistently stated that his natural position is C, yet you want to troll and post as if you know better than them.

Ok, you used the word “stupider”, I see what I’m dealing with now.

You are right bro, I said this a month ago or 2, can't remember and was downvoted too so don't take it personal, just some tards on here. Favors is indeed a PF playing out of position, but what makes it worse is when Gentry inserts Melli in at center who is even shorter at 6'8. Lol I mean I think you can go and find a legit center in the league Gentry that can run the floor, block shots and rebound, they are all over the league. I was hoping that they'd get the kid who plays for New York who is from New Orleans (Mitchell Robinson I think) awhile back when they were trying to work out a trade during the offseason, but it didn't go through. Right now Okafor is the only true center that they have and he def ain't enough, they need more front line help.

Then the experts whoever they may be are wrong because he ain't no true center. Lol

Oh, ok. So a troll on a message board knows more than the GMs and scouts who's livelihood is to make those judgments and decisions?

Great take.

I love that the Pels have a LSU player on the squad but they kept the wrong one.

Should have kept KBW to come off the bench as a spark guy and backup C/PF because if anyone is a C/PF then that would be KBW.

But I do believe Hayes is a legit C, he just needs more time to gel with Favors or Zion(when he returns) at PF.

I guess so because I don't know who the experts are that you speak of, I just don't agree with you that Favors is a center. PF all the way, glad he had a good game last nite, but I still saw the occasional bad passing from him and bad D that he plays sometimes. I mean they are a lot of PF's in the league that get 20, 20 games at times, but that doesn't make them a center now.

But the major dictionaries would disagree; stupider is commonly cited as the correct comparative form of the adjective stupid. Stupider is grammatically correct, it is a real word, and it’s been in use for at least the last two hundred years.


Need to be proven wrong more?

yeah, my personal opinion is that the LSU kid is not ready for the NBA and would be better served playing in the D league for awhile til he's ready. I forgot about Jax Hayes and I think Jax needs strength and more weight, size to his body to get the full on advantage from him, but you can get some productive minutes from him right now even at the size he is right now.

You have no intellect if you use the word “stupider”. I’m fine with you taking that as a win.

So you know more than David Griffin?

So, you're saying Griffin said that? Well, then yeah, I def know more than him. Lol Listen, people say idiotic shite all the time even if some of them are high profiled people, just because they are high profile doesn't make them automatically correct. I played all 3 of the major sports going all the way up to college(football, baseball, and basketball) at a really high level in my young days in the late '80's. And I wanted to play pro ball which was my dream, but 2 very serious knee injuries derailed that dream, but I will always cherish the intense competition. It gave me a unique insight into that world, so, yeah, I think I know a lil more than a Griffin.

Without LeBron, how good was Griffin tbh?

Come on, the emotions of the kids on this forum change quicker than the bounce of the basketball. We make a shot then we are the best team in the world, if we go down by 2 points it’s the end of the world.....bunch of bi-polar nerds.
