Neither Bogut or Gadzuric are threats outside of 5ish feet... With Redd being on the threat to shoot from the perimeter it would create for a pretty poor offense, IMO.
Yep.
If we started Gadzuric, we'd have one consistent outside threat, Redd. Ridnour is a very inconsistent shooter, and while RJ has improved that aspect of his game, he's still hot and cold. Bogut can't shoot outside consistently, and Gadzuric would kill small children shooting anywhere outside 3 feet.
Gadzuric is not starting at PF. I can't believe some people are honestly saying he should. It's Gadzuric!!
flawed logic .
lets not start the better defender , shot blocker , floor runner , rebounder.......because ????
Our team needs cv or allens jumpshot ?
Doesnt make sense to me , of course i am saying Gadzuric is this player based on the clear assumption that skiles feels he can restore dans confdience ...IF we could do that , not playing dan in favor of malik allen or cv because they are both such potent outside shooters is one of the most absurd suggestions ive yet to read on here ! ...
The question isnt a matter of our jump shooting going to hell ...because simply put cv or allen or any of our pfs arent going to give us much in that regard at all ... the question is , can skiles get dan back to that pre-stotts form .. I think hes trying , and i think he knows that dan clearly is the 2nd best big we have on this team , only behind Bogut ...
Yall love to trash him , and you clearly are basing that on very real things , dan has been honestly one of the worse bucks ive seen in quite a long time .. hes so bad on some nights its actually humorous . BUT let me remind you , its not like dan was awarded his contract just for NO GOOD REASON! Im sure youll play the larry harris sucks card in regards to that , but we all LOVED DAN under karl and porter . Their was a time where dan looked like he was going to be a quality player in this league ..and his numbers were impressive ..led the leauge in blocks per 48 and he single handedly changed games for us .
So what happend to dan has to be the question , how can we get dan back to being the player that was awarded that contract ..and whats the possibilites of it actually happening , and how much are we willing to commit to getting him back .. Like i said , i say 10 games ..CONISTANT MINUTES ! .. Not this stotts or larry k bs .. but giving dan the confidence that he will be allowed to PLAY THRU a few mistakes will do wonders for his confidence ..
but hey , lets all scrap that idea for the outside reggie miller eque shooting of Malik Allen and Charlie V ! ....
Not to mention the minutes dan would be getting at the 5 .. but naw , we need the jumpshooting of FRANSISCO ELSON ! ....really ? Fransico Elson ?
