Even if he was still on the team the nikka had no post game. You act like dudes game isn't built on midrange jumpers.

You want us to act like he was shaq now that he's gone?:dahell:
More like movement, PnP and cutting. Don't treat him like he's 2011 Mike Scott.

Na u don't have to act like nothin but don't throw his ass in the bushes either. If I remember correctly he was a big part of what you guys did the year you won mad games.

Now y'all :blessed: cuz u got fake shaq. Don't even think bud could pull off an Orlando part 2 with Dwight if he wanted to. I mean u got korver, Scott and bazemore so we wil see.:patrice:
11 total rebounds in the Cleveland series for al horford

11 breh:dahell:


Ya damn right he bushes status..especially for max money:martin:

:beli: You know damn well Dwight ain't got the post game that Horford has. Dude had one of the GOAT post players in Ewing working with him and still doesn't have one.

:mjlol: bruh just say you came in here to hate with this post. Horford don't have no type of game around the post. No rebounding game and for damn sure no game that required him trying to score :laff:. And nobody hating on Horford because he's gone, we been talking about his lack of physicality forever. Even the players talking about it now. You don't hear nobody talking bad about Teague around here :sas2:

So continue with the same shyt or make a change? Got rid of up and down teague and got a center who won't get punked by Tristan thompson. That's a step in the right direction:yeshrug:
I always hated this stupid logic, it don't work, blow it up to something even more stupid. Let's get an aging Dwight Howard, lost a top 10-15 PG and add a couple rookies, yeah improvement. That's bullshyt. Dwight and Dennis has to be 10 times better just to be as good as last year.

Of course the ATL
Starting lineup?

PG: Dennis/Jack
SG: Korver/THJR/Bembry
SF: Baze/Thabo/Prince
PF: Millsap/Scott/Kris Humphries
C: DuWop/Splitter/Muscala

Like @Sly Cookin said the best case scenario would be Baze at the 2 and Prince start at SF. Everyone is in their correct positions and we get a bigger/more traditional lineup

Would like to see us get an NBA caliber 3rd PG tho

Dwight's post game is beyond garbage of the last year. One of the worst back to basket players in the NBA. His percentages were horrendous. Say what you want about Al not posting up enough and being robotic when he is but by the numbers he's far more effective then Dwight of late at posting up. nikkas be thinking about Orlando Dwight. I aint seen that nikka in years

An aging Dwight still gave you Al's production...and as a physically imposing C will be better suited for physical playoff basketball than Al who did play soft and finesse against bigger front lines. We've seen the best of Teague not sure why you'd be so attached to him to think it wasn't time to move on or at least give Dennis a shot. As for the rookies, Prince is DMC 2.0 and we'll see what we get from Bembry, but I don't think they'll have to be 10X better to be as good as last yr. this team will win fewer games but can go deeper in the playoffs with this squad...there is a physicality and competitiveness that this squad has that last year's did not
