    Dont know why people are high on Faried, Yes he may rebound more but his defense is just as bad and He would be a terrible fit next 2 dwight

    lol

    I strongly disagree. He would be a great fit next to Howard. Can't discount his rebounding he would be bringing. I saw last night that last year he was grabbing almsot 9 rebounds and scoring almost 13 points in 27 MPG. His advanced stats should make anyone team smile. I have seen him play and he is a beast of a player and he is real young. He will not be intimidated by the LMA's or Griffins at all.

    I know.

    I picture Iranian President HUssan Rouhani and Benjamin Netanyahu sitting together at halfcourt:

    Plowman Netanyahu: This game kinda sucks.

    Cyberx Rouhani: Hey, that pizza up there in the concession stand didn't look half-bad. You want some pizza? (digging in pocket) You fly, I'll buy.

    Plowman Netanyahu: Can I get a beer?

    Cyberx Rouhani: (scoffs) Not if you want me to pay for it. You know how much crap I'd have to take if someone took a picture of you swilling a beer with me? Get a Coke or something. We cool?

    Plowman Netanyahu: (going up steps to concession area) We're cool, bro.

    he has trouble guarding both of them just as much as TJ at this point. theres nothing that shows hes a huge upgrade over TJ other than just his motor

    He is playing in a Nugs system though. Him alongside Howard and Ariza would be way different. I seen Faried hurt us and also seen him take it to Howard when we play them. He is not intimidated by going against big men like TJ seems to be so.

    Also. Coach K has chosen Faried over Cousins and a few other bigs as a starter. I am sure there is a reason for this. I saw a play that him and Harden did that was nasty.

    hes even smaller than TJ..even if he so called doesn't get intimidated like you say TJ does, he still can't guard them so it's not someone to get excited over.

    I seen them both play and I am excited about Faried. Also Team USA seems to think he has something more than TJ.

    ok


    Those lineups have some of the best players in the NBA and if Faried is outplaying some other bug guys I am interested.

    get excited all you want but the funny thing is TJ has identical numbers to KF even though TJ doesn't have near the opportunity KF has in Denver.

    CyberX said that Morey absolutely loves him and wants to acquire him.

    If TJ is T-Jones, how well does KF block out? I ask because T-Jones blocks out as well as a traffic cone.

    I don't know that you can translate that to the NBA. When you have a team full of the best #1 go to options in the NBA, someone who does something different - a hustle guy that you don't have to feed the ball to - is more interesting than another #1 option.

    There aren't many teams in the NBA that have the embarrassment of scoring riches that Team USA has.

    Different systems and also TJ has more MPG then Faried so he has plenty of opportunites. I seen TJ shrink from the top big guys already and seen Faried have no problem going against them.
