It's hard to assume someone is only going to be a pick and roll player with a rookie averaging what 20 minutes a game. Give him some time to develop, but form the games I've seen him in he has some post moves in there. But when you're coming off the bench, they're not going to have a lot of plays set for Drummonds other than the pick and roll. Maybe if they wise up and get him some more minutes and let him work a little more then we can evaluate his game. But he's still a 19 year old rookie and has a lot of promise.

have either of them played much this year? I guess my comment was out of ignorance because I saw them play the Nets without Reke or Thornton and Cousins was literally the only one worth a damn.
Well, Salmons hit like 3 straight 3's but then missed every shot for the rest of the game, but still

Another lottery draft pick for us, another chance for David Kahn to **** up. I really have no idea where this team is going. I have no faith whatsoever with Kahn running it. Even the ******* Twins have a better future than this team. It's Pek, Rubio and nothing else.

AK-47 was great this season before getting hurt, and it's not his fault Love broke his hand twice. Plus, Budinger was a great pick-up before his injury, Shved was a solid cheap pickup, Ridnour is a perfectly decent player, etc. It's not his fault all of these guys got hurt.

Injuries happen to teams, and good teams still win despite them. I don't know why you are playing devil's advocate for Kahn. It's a consistent culture of losing here.

Has Durant been hurt? Westbrook? Anyone from Denver? It's incredibly difficult to win when all of your five best players miss significant time, and your best player by a wide margin is out most of the year. A healthy version of this roster gets places.

I can't fault Rubio for any of this. He's been amazing lately. Once he develops a shot he's going to be a top 10 pg easy.

How are the Spurs frontrunners for Al Jefferson? Tiago Splitter, Patty Mills, and Captain Jack's expiring is good enough? That's all I can come up with...
I doubt the Spurs are willing to move Duncan/Manu/Parker/Kawhi. You'd think someone else out there could come up with a better offer, or they'd at least hope to work out a Sign & Trade in free agency.

Watching the Pistons/Nets game now. Teletovic just airballed three straight shots in a minute. That's new.

Did you see Danny Green dropping air balls from 4 feet last night? Now that was a treat.

If Rubio can develop just into a mediocre shooter he'd be dangerous.
Also, Mavericks are ******* enigma.

Why exactly did DeJuan Blair fall out of favor in San Antonio? I thought he played well for them, even being undersized. I would love for the 76ers to make a run at him once Bynum bolts. Hawes has shown he can keep up on the floor with our fast guys (keep up as good as a Center can).

What are some realistic trades the Magic could do with JJ Redick?

I have no problem with what Mark Jackson did to Houston. None at all. I love Jackson. I wanted him to be our coach bad but we went with DÁntoni.
He's a good coach.

That actually could be a really good dunk contest lineup, other than Jeremy Evans being in it again for some reason. James White can put on a show.

Brandon Knight in the skills challenge is a joke. ...unless there is a skill for Turnovers in which case he should win by a landslide! lol

Yeah the skills challenge overall is pretty terrible. I think the players realized that no one cares about it.
