Villanuva has the same problem at SF that everyone says Lee has. He isn't quick, he seems to me like Lamar Odom without the atleticism to play 4 positions. This guy is going to be pigeonholed into a versatile Power point forward who can occasionally shift to SF

CV's playing SF right now. I think he's a legit 3 position player who can do fine against most SFs. He's a lot quicker than David Lee.

Never said that. I said that he has some deficiencies in his game at SF, the same as Lee. Funny how only players Zeke drafts WON'T adjust to the NBA. I was just using him as a comparison, not a rule.

I don't think Lee is a SF either. With the new perimeter defense rules, those guys would get hammered with fouls or blown by all night.

I like Villanueva and Bosh as a 4/5 tandem a lot, I just don't think it's a good idea to try to make CV a SF.

GENIUS REBUTTLE...I sometimes get the feeling that no matter what trade we make, it will suck to some. Looking at Knight's rebuttle (who I used to always disagree with) you can see how stupid is seems to some of us that the glass is always half empty.

As you all can probably guess, I'm ECSTATIC about getting rose for free (yes, dumping AD was getting him for free), he's a baller, straight up, light years ahead of Reezy (whom I love) and Lee (rookie "big") and can for sure take the ball handling playmaking pressure off of marbs (and craw and nate).

This is a great mix of veteran and youth IMHO. QWoods, Curry, Frye, Lee, Nate, JRose, MoT and Marbs. Just because they suck on the court, doesn't mean they won't figure it out.

look at only the games that are played by TMac and Yao and they are a playoff team, don't let their record fool you.

We competed BIG TIME against them and had no Starbury.

I think crawford is gone.

We essentially suck, Toronto is going to get another player in the draft and have the ability to maybe package Villenueva, and sign another free agent and keep Chris Bosh, you don't give flexibility to division rivals.....

Toronto essentially sucks, we are going to get another player in the draft and have the ability to maybe package Rose next year and keep all of our young players, you don't give flexibility to division rivals.....

If Isiah drafted him, we wouldn't know if he was slow or not because he wouldn't play.

no he wouldn't. He has the athleticism ball-handling and foot speed to play it.
Uhmm no.. sorry. He doesn't. Not the three. Offensively he could get by. Defensively. No.
