Renegade7 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) Man, has Beal come into his own or what? Looking at stat line on this game, looks like turnovers and free throw shooting are killing us today. Assists are also down, but hearing about Nene's knee tendinitis makes me feel we need to focus that draft pick on someone that can play the 5 or be the big guy on the floor when we play small. Seriously, I love the guy, but he's never going to be healthy enough for us to truly rely on him to be anchor going forward. I totally believe that's why Denver traded him (though it sure does feel good knowing Mcgee is coming off the bench for Denver now). I like the Shabazz idea, but what about this guy Zeller? I se he can play PF/C and is expected to be a lottery pick. Edited January 19, 2013 by Renegade7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) Wall's sitting at 10 assists, but also 6 turnovers. Not making the best decisions with the rock tonight. Edited January 19, 2013 by StillUnknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Wall is not having a brilliant game. I think that was his 5th turnover. He's getting assists though.Edit: and number 6 Too many turnovers but he's been piling up assists and passes leading to FTs. Having a nice game defensively too. I want to see him finish those drives. He gave up an assist on a drive he should have taken the shot. He had the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I se he can play PF/C and is expected to be a lottery pick. Think of what Beal will be like as his handles improve and he gets to the line more. He's already driving more than he did at the start of the year. I wonder how much longer this will be "Wall's team". Zeller will be good not great. He's got short arms and isn't very strong but he has a lot of offensive variety around the basket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Ariza really having a nice game. Found his range from 3, made some tough jumpers in traffic, and he's been making big plays on D. I really don't know what to make of him yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed on the finish and I saw the play you are talking about. I don't think he has his legs back, he'd normally attempt a shot there. There is no question the team is better with him.

He's got short arms and isn't very strong but he has a lot of offensive variety around the basket. It's always going to be Wall's team so long as he is here. He is the PG and the leader and he's also the biggest athletic talent. But Beal could very well end up being the best player. He's so remarkably clean. I can't believe how smart he is.

SuperBash Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 That box out to hook shot was the greatest defense to offense series I've ever seen from Seraphin. ---------- Post added January-18th-2013 at 10:56 PM ---------- **** these refs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Also I'm not sure what to make of Zeller's ceiling. Conventional wisdom says it'll only be so high but having watched him play a fair amount now, he's got a star quality to him that's hard to describe. Nice J from Wall. Those dribble pull ups are so tantalizing. They show what could be. WTH is with these no calls? ---------- Post added January-18th-2013 at 10:57 PM ---------- Jordan needs to stop trying to split those doubles. I can't remember the last time it ended well.

SuperBash Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Is this the stretch where sitting Wall hurts us with a lead? Happened last game. At least Beal is back in. ---------- Post added January-18th-2013 at 11:02 PM ---------- Take that, Manimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I se he can play PF/C and is expected to be a lottery pick. Nene has had serious injuries in his past and present but he actually doesn't miss that much time surprisingly. The only seasons where he missed a ton of games were the ACL tear season and the Cancer scare season. Understandable. He gets hurt because he's got such a rugged style, but he fights through it. And is remarkably efficient in doing so. I think you can generally count on 70 game seasons from him. That's good enough. But we do need a big man anyway. You take Shabazz #1 IMO because I still think he's the best player in the class. In the NBA, I think you are almost always best off taking the BPA unless you've already got a franchise player at his position. But there isn't as big a gap between Shabazz and Nerlens and Zeller as I originally thought. I like Nerlens a little more than I did at first and I like Zeller a lot more than I did at first. Bigs with his instincts and scoring ability are hard to find. ---------- Post added January-18th-2013 at 11:05 PM ---------- Absolutely. Also they are screening well to set up those 10 foot short jumpers. Koufos is dirty with his screens. He should have been called for an offensive foul a couple of times. Rare bad pass from Beal. God that was a good hook from Seraphin. That scoring touch is why he's going to get a ton of chances to put it all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
