Doc saved his son's career. Dude deserves Dad of the year for 2016.

Austin has turned into a key rotational player and is shooting 40% from 3 :whoo:
I still wish we would've made an attempt to land him in free agency... Ramon Sessions gonna kill me before the all-star break at this rate

You act like these great post players grow on trees. Look at Embiid, He doesn't just live in the post. He's spreading the floor and taking 3's too. The NBA has forced bigs to diversify their game. How stupid would The Rockets be to force post ups to fukking NeNe or Clint Capela?
So you're saying if you don't have good post players it's not a good idea to post up?? What a revelation. Thanks for enlightening us.

C'mon Captain Obvious everybody knows you don't just force post ups with good players. But the D'antoni's have been shytting on ALL post ups for years. Back to when he had Dwight and Pau with the Lakers and was saying he wouldn't use them in the post due to post ups not being worth the effort. That's what I'm arguing against. If you have a great low post player you should use them. There are more and more good low post players coming into the league yet they're getting phased out due to this thinking. Seems no one wants to touch a Greg Monroe, or Jahlil Okafur due to this belief that low post players have little value which I think is crazy.
