I can't figure some of these players out ....it's gotta be terribly frustrating to Mike Brown to have so few players on his roster that he can count on ...
Drew is still Drew ...he's taking strides in the right direction for periods of time, and then falls back to being the same enigma. If we had a soud rebounder on our roster, besides Gooden, one that could be technically sound at boxing out ..because Drew is the only on we really have in that regard ...then we could look to move him for something of quality while he's on a strong run, and his value is high.
You just can't be fooled into thinking he's ever going to be anything that you can depend upon game in and game out.
Z is Z ...he's just a decent center that's playing on a team that has no structure ..thus, he flounders. Put him on a team with solid structure and an offensive system and he would thrive ..but that's not us.
Eric Snow is our best PG and he's not a PG. So, that's the whole ball of wax there.... we need one so desperately that it's not worth talking abou anymore. I know, he can guard off guards and small forwards ok ..but we don;t need someone to do that ..Hughes and Lebron can do that, really.
We need someone ..anyone who can stop dribble penetration from opposing point guards ..because they so easily get passed every player on our roster that tries to do that, that our defense can be broken down very very early on every opposing possession.
Now, granted . .I'm just giving you the problems caused by the supposed STRENGTH of Eric Snow's game .... on the offensive side it's much much worse ...we have nobody on our roster, at all, that is an NBA ready playmaker ...nobody that can effectively ribble penetrate against an opposing PG ...noone ....thus we pound and pound and pound against teams that have the type players we have no answer for ...
Makes no difference how good or bad a team's record is ..of they have that quick guard or guards that can penetrate or defend ...we flounder offensively and defensively.
Christ ....Mateen Cleaves would bring a viable asset to this team, and he sucks ...but he has a skill set we desperetaly need. We could get somebody for basically nothing that could help our situation, that's how dreadfully in need we are for a quick guard.
