I'm all for waiting to call to call people bust, as a defender of Dekker. That being said, has anybody grown out of having really slow foot speed and weak explosiveness? He would really have to work on his body.
There are slow-footed, nonathletic players that have solid careers in the NBA (Zach Randolph, Derrick Favors). I still like to go with the wait and see approach. Maybe Nanu develops skills to compensate for his short comings. He is a good passer; he has some moves on the block; he also has been shooting some 3s in the d-league.
See the thing is with those type of players is they are very talented offensively. Favors and Randolph have strong mid range games, strong post games, very strong players. Although I disagree about Favors he was very athletic when drafted(not sure about now since he is struggling with injuries). Onuaku doesn't stand out as freakishly strong, nor does he have any type of jumper or even a post game to my knowledge. I hope he becomes a solid player of course, he just doesn't seem physically up to par with NBA players. Hopefully he keeps working on his body.
This is what y'all can expect the next 3 years with this Italian. 50 wins, no title. Uncle Le$ will be happy because he makes money.
just what i feared when i first heard he was the new rockets coach.m that the rockets would turn into an all O / no D fastbreak team whose predictable offense would fall apart in the playoffs when teams actually gameplan against it. we've seen it before with d'antoni. " insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result."
Appropriate bump . Mike is a one trick pony . He's taken away elements of James' game that made him runner up MVP in 14-15 . Adding better shooters was common sense . We just have no plan B for if James is off and boy is he off tonight .
harden really tricked people into believing he was still a "good" coach. created the biggest pretender ever in phoenix. flopped in new york. flopped in LA. but NOW he's coach of the year? lmao.
What a clown. He kept Capela on the bench in the final minutes and the Jazz obliged. Kept penetrating and getting dunks and layups.
Where is our green? Why MDA uses 8 man rotation again? Make our team like soft sxxt. We lose home advantage now. Wtf
