:mjcry:

I remember when Spo gave him those 1st few minutes and he showed out. That game against Lob City was his coming out party.
That game against the bulls :damn:

Bro was the biggest story in basketball at one point:mjcry:.......Coming from the D league straight shytting on everybody. Teams didn't even know how to gameplay for him. He was must watch TV every game:wow:


Then we turned him into joakim Noah :unimpressed:
I don’t even like thinking about how much of a wasted opportunity Hassan being stuck with this coaching staff was :mjcry:. His last 2 seasons, he was basically told to set screens and stay out of the way on offense and to just try chasing people away from the paint & seemed to be discouraged from actually blocking shots.

I will be checkin out portland games just to verify if it was Spo holding him back
Or did he really just not care anymore and became trash. Just our heat luck tho he will complete their big 3 and this nikka will average 22/10. Dame draws so much attention so he will eat

The heat have no real identity as an offense, and Spo always struggles to find a defined role for players no matter who they are. A lot of guys frequently have no consistent place in the offense. Every year, he was among the least passed to centers in basketball. Big men always seem to disengage when they aren’t part of the offense. You have to keep them involved.

We’re talking about a guy who led the league in blocks one year and rebounds in another. A guy who finished all defensive second team and was a serious contender for defensive player of the year. We were good on defense even with Goran and an old Wade as the back court & old Amare Stoudemire getting minutes. He’s legit. I’m expecting 17-20 points and 11-13 rebounds per game from him next year depending on his minutes. Obviously the shot blocking numbers will be high.

When he denied gasoline twice at the rim, his showing game was at LA against the clippers, thought he would be the real deal

Yea your right plus nobody could set him up properly after wade left so them 2 years was limbo for him. Knowing that he will have 2 guards looking for him will motivate him but lets see if his screens improve also
