That guy is 100% keeper. All he needs to do is get to the line more.. Finish at the rim better and not force shots as much sometimes then he will be fine. Once he brings it together consistently we have ourselves quite the player on both ends of the floor. I guess we can say if he brings it together but I'm confident he can and will.

fan for too long 2 535 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 I think he can be a very good player but not a go to guy at the end. He should have taken a time out last night when he knew ibaka was on him. Or at least pump fake him. His decision making is questionable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get that it's human nature to overreact game by game, but when it comes down to it he's a 23 year old, third year player but for some reason everyone acts like he's already in his prime. He continuously is our best defender and has shown the ability to have huge offensive nights. He's bone-headed sometimes, especially on offense, but that's because he's still learning and on occasion he tries to do way too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Franchero MVP 391 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 Not that this team wasn't already cooked, but I wonder how this loss will affect them the rest of the way. Damn this was a winnable game. We needed it for our confidence. Still holding out hope we turn it around to make the 8th seed but it's really doubtful. We played hard, but bad teams will always find a way to lose. Made a lot of mistakes offensively and defensively down the stretch. It's pretty clear at this point that the PG position needs an upgrade to someone that can provide offense. Need a defensive PF because Vuc is softer than Charmin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On his third head coach in one and a half years. We need his fire. And he is playing the toughest position Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magicman28 295 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 I wouldn't trade Dipo at all. An off season of strengthening and continuous progression in shooting, he'll be even better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
