Franchero MVP 391 Report post Posted December 26, 2011 Can anyone tell me what the deal with this guy is? On the court he looks like a baller, but I feel like there is a reason he didn't get any burn with other NBA teams. Maybe I am missing something? I like his offense. He drives and seems like he can finish at the rim quite nicely. Oh, and everyone must watch this hilarious video of him on the Celtics last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6cVfAXxb3c It's OK Von, we love you here anyway :happypuppy: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is still young and athletic. How old is he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KandiKane 136 Report post Posted December 26, 2011 26. he has problems doing anything other than score. He's been known to jack up shots. From what I have seen, and that's only what he showed last night in his 9 mins, is that he is not all there on defense... gets caught on back doors, does not help out etc. But on the other side he really does know how to get to the rim. I think Stan f-cked up by not putting him in when we started to struggle offensively..... need should be used as a spark and brought into the game as soon as it appears like we may not score for a while.

Hopefully, he worked on his defense. Again, he should be ok aslong as Dwight is down the paint. He is fast and can be a decent defender if he works hard.

E27 33 Report post Posted December 26, 2011 He got a lot of burn in Houston when McGrady went down in 09. I think he even started for a stretch. He's just never been able to stick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miller4Prez66 545 Report post Posted December 26, 2011 When his shots aren't falling, he is worthless. He is like a taller Nate Robinson, capable of putting up numbers some times, but more often than not he isn't worth being on the floor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
