3 hours ago, TrueMagicFanSince1987 said:Why can’t he develop a little go to move when he gets the ball down there though? These guys are in the NBA the highest level of play arguably in the world. Now why can’t a guy put some work in and do that? It’s useless when he gets an offensive rebound on most possessions because he usually fumbles it out of bounds or gets it stolen. Gobert can’t shoot 3’s so I wouldn’t compare the 2 especially since he was already an elite defensive talent as a rookie and Bamba is nowhere near that. It’s predictable when all you do is fade to the 3 and shoot the ball. Put some weight on and get a go to move down low and you’ll see how his game opens up.
Agreed, with his length he could have an unstoppable sky hook like Kareem, but he appears to be more of a perimeter guy as it’s too hard to bang with the brutes. Granted the game has changed but you should always exploit mismatch’s when you can.

I’m a prime venter as I truly love our team, but man it’s extremely frustrating!!!!
It feels like we’ll never get out of this mediocracy. I see other teams that pick up players after our draft choices that make impacts and it drives me crazy. I thought these guys had all this experience and Cliff was suppose to get the best out of everyone as he did last year toward the end, but I guess now that these guys have their contracts it’s a different story. I’m hoping for change this summer as I think we’ve been patient enough and mediocracy is not going cut. -
Not to be a negative nelly, but I don’t see Bamba as an elite center what so ever nor do I think he will evolve into one. He’s a role player....
-
This will be embarrassing getting completely crushed by the Bucks if we make it to the playoffs.
-
Yep, we’re constantly a day late and a dollar short. We’re pathetic this year.
-
There’s no way we’re going to out shoot these guys; we better start making some stops; it’s our only shot.
-
No kidding, where’s Iwundu?
-
At least we have our point guard of the future. TRoss is been really bad this year and just because Gordon can jump over the moon doesn’t mean he’s a good basketball player. Vooch is trying real hard on D and Evan hasn’t been bad this year. We are just so unbalanced.
-
You would like to think Bamba would be a unicorn like Porzingus but he doesn’t seem to quite have it and where you thought he would excel defensively, he really doesn’t. He’s got role player written all over him and frankly I’m not sure he would ever be a starter on a good team. We’ll see how he fares after a few summers in the gym and building his body, but he’s far from a sure thing.
-
We have definitely regressed from last year; it’s time for change. Our shooting is a freaking joke!
-
Yeah Shaq probably didn’t want to help AG because of his buddy DWade (the fixer); very disappointed in Shaq; he’s has not been a true ally since he called Orlando a dried up pond. He should have offered support to his former team. You can have money and fame, but class is non discriminative.
-
I think the general consensus is that AG got robbed and he will get a ton of mileage out of this while exposing the political inequalities of the few that robbed it from him. In the end he will be the one that is remembered. Somethings in life you can win by losing.....
-
If Gordon can shoot 35% plus from three and play within himself, it’s a game changer for our team.
-
Yep, I find myself doing the same thing. I’ve always had minor issues with a sinus condition, but it’s been ridiculous lately.
-
I work with doctors and pharmacist and they mention a lot of pollen and with all of our development going on there is controlled burns with toxins released from trees. Bottom line is there are a lot of respiratory problems with people right now; lots of flu and head colds that won’t go away.
-
I think AG handled it pretty good. Anybody would be upset especially when some of the Matriarchs in the NBA are conspiring against you. I’d be pissed.
-
This Slam dunk contest makes me really hate the Heat now; and I was born in Miami. I don’t know how Jones can accept that Trophy in good faith. There will always be an asterisk by he and Levine‘s name. Actually AG will get some good mileage out of this.

Love me some Ja Morant; by the way there is a petition going around; I signed it.

I don’t think I’ll be watching it again, this is as bad as our political system.
-
I feel bad for AG; robbed again.

I saw his interview and he’s playing it low key underdog; didn’t realize he had 44” vertical. He also could have played pro baseball; you may be right as he is obviously a great athlete.
-
AG is the heavy favorite, but if he loses to Howard the would be horrible.
-
It looks like Ennis might be able to help us.

It’s just not working with Gordon right now. It’s got to be a question.

Totally agree, I see these stats on Bamba, but when I watch him I see a guy who can get hot at the 3 pt but is very inconsistent and I see him slow to react to coverages and frankly weak on the block due to high center of gravity and of course his lack of strength. His stats appear to be better then his eye test for sure.
