Nate is also no way close to being anything more than a 5'9 SG.

Yeah, thats what he is..and whats ur point???

My point is he's no more than a backup in the NBA. Not an impact player by any stretch of the imagination. For that reason, there is not much of a difference between Nate and Eddie House. Talent-wise, Nate wins. Too bad he doesn't usually utilize those talents to his strengths.

House is a smarter more team oriented player. He's still a knucklehead and a chucker but he does more things more properly than Nate. Also Bill Walker is a nice little spark plug. Good trade.

He does more things than Nate, really...House cannot dribble and can only shoot the three..House has been on 9 teams in 10 years...


Other than his penchant to take a bad shot he plays a team game. Nate played for Nate. Nate fought with the refs, his teammates, and his coaches.

Nate was a cancer that had to go....and wasn't going to return anyway.

House, Walker, 2014 2nd round pick, JR Giddens >>>> Nate Robinson.

To be fair, I saw Eddie do everything that you accuse Nate of doing. Now that House is older it may appear that he is wiser then he has those moments where he looks like the knucklehead he was when he entered the league. His penchant to fool around with opposing players during live game action is bothersome.

Why are we crying about Nate Robinson, a guy who fought with the refs, his coach, and his teammates. A man who was never returning to this team. A man who in trade fetched House a more stable player and Bill Walker an intriguing young player.

Why?

Where the hell did Nate Robinson take us? Nate Robinson, like many other Isiah players, only looked good when they were having one of those 65%FG type shooting nights.

Holfresh, some people need to delude themselves to sleep at night. If reality does not work, then they invent a new one.

oohah

Naw, no worries, this dude think he needs to be my antagonist, but comes up with lame arguments in the process...I'll play along...

Yeah that is one ugly looking mess. You could put a bag over her head and her face would probably burn right through it.

I guess it's Gasol's night to go off on us.

Slavko Vranes could go for 20/20 on our front court.

Clyde has lost a big step. He is talking about boxing out when the rebound lands about 20 feet away from the basket.

LOL

First Walker destroyed Gasol. Then he elbows Zach in the head.

I like this guy.

Well, sure, I'm not making House out to be this perfect player. But he is more stable than Nate and plays the game more properly than Nate. Maybe in four or five years Nate will be a calmer more savvy player. But he isn't today and he wasn't coming back next year.

So I don't see why some are upset with the trade. I like how House plays mostly, and I like Bill Walker.

It was a good trade by Donnie rather than keeping Nate which was leading towards more and more unrest on the team and then having him walk out the door at the end of the year.

Just got to move on.

I liked Nate BTW, a lot. Always in terrific shape. Always played 110%. Always loyal to his teammates. His attitude was his problem. But, it was a big one. His 1 vs 5 play was a problem. A big one.

Couldn't take much more of that.

Yeah, Nate Robinson who comes off of a 14 game benching and score 40 to win a game all by himself is not an impact player...and the 10 games he did the similar thing last season, yeah, he had no impact then either.

Good observation.

oohah

Nate Robinson has had a big impact on this team in terms of wins and losses. I agree. Our record really shows it, especially when he gets heavy minutes.

Walker benefiting from the Grizzlies not giving a damn about him on the perimeter.

When Douglas plays good things happen.

This PG rotation of Sergio/House/Douglas is nice.

Duhon, just pack your shyt and go home. Don't even show up anymore. Go away.

Thank god.
