    In 29 games, he's averaging 22.7 points, 7.4 rebounds and is shooting 35.7 percent from 3-point in China. The title is a little tongue n cheek. This next point is too but maybe i.d.i.o.t.: ok so I signed mo speights in 2k19 released tjones. Had him play the 5 to test out my theory and omg did it work. He was unstoppable from 3 In the pick n pop. No center would hold him that far...bucks test team. Oh and I switched my system proficiency to perimeter centric when he in the game


    But I been low key wanting speights question is how do you guys think he would fit as a stretch 5 in mda system right now. Do we think he would help more then tjones. I believe when u get to the 10 11 man on the bench those guys as specialists give you the most bang for the spot.

    Thoughts?

    Oh n I encourage you guys to boot up the game n try this for ***** n giggles

    Come on man, the guy is like 400lbs right now. You're wondering about his fit on the team, I'm wondering if a jersey that would fit him even exists.

    Even not good in China.D-mo is averaging 27.7 points 14.4 rebounds 4.2 assists and is shooting 31.5 percent from 3-point in China.
    Speights has been waived by China team.

    Did he win a Chinese championship though? Then he would be the key.

    He couldn't see the floor unless he could play in this switch style defense and his rebounding is lacking enough that we'd want a rebounder with him on the floor at all times. I'm just not sure he's a fit on defense.

    His offense... why not... it would be fun to watch the spacing.

    If he was slim and quicker, I might have said yes. I was looking at Perry Jones' g-league videos for the same reason, but he isn't up to the mark either.

    He was our unicorn for a few seasons. Always wanted, never attainable.

    OP needs to change the thread title to read "The Key to a Championship Formula" before anyone will take this thread seriously. I'm serious.

    Did you really just use NBA 2K19 as an argument to support your theory?

    I'm confused.

    Did we suddenly lose Faried to injury for the rest of the season?
