Hey now. DAMMMIT. I asked about this cat and somebody, I want to say Pharzone, said Walker was a scrub and not worth discussing.
So what the hell is going on? My saliva and spit can split thread into fiber and bits/ So trust me I'm as live as it gets.

This post is pure gold.
So glad we got Walker in the trade. The guy has skills and is great value. Guy is built like a tank too. That jumper of his looks solid from the spot up position. NY Knicks - Retirement home for players and GMs

when he shows he can hit a jumpshot & can play a little defense i'll get excited over this kid... always nice to see a Celtic get posterized but we've seen Nate throw down some nice looking dunks in games too.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

Nate is a baller, tho. That's not bad company. Can this guy become our JJ Hickson? My saliva and spit can split thread into fiber and bits/ So trust me I'm as live as it gets.

Nate is definitely a baller, which is what i'd like to see out of Walker before i get excited over 2 dunks he threw down last night... would love for guys like him & Sergio to stick around longterm but only if they're worth holding onto... i don't want no 1 trick ponies that can only do 1 thing but nothing else, we've had enough of those kinds of players around here over the years.

Agree with that, but man can this dude jump. He was like 2 feet over the rim on that first slam.

I had the game on but was working and not watching it when Walker was in. I do remember Clyde saying that he liked the way Walker played d.

I think MDA inserted him because he can run with Sergio. Watch him get more fastbreak points as we go along.

was funny to hear the reaction of Boston fans tho... they were quiet... almost like "damn, why'd we give this guy up in this trade?" hopefully guys like him & Sergio can stick so we can keep something out of these trades other than just cap space

It's nice to have something to focus on in these games. I'll be watching to see what Walker can do with this opportunity, assuming he gets minutes.

It's not so hard.

Actually a nice, subtle move by Walshyboy, but he needs to start getting some guys without checkered medical histories like Walker, TMac, and Bender.

Nate Robinson has been on a ridonkulous scoring tear lately (remember when he couldn't hit Jerome James with a Big Mac in early January?)

I said when we got this guy that he was a major sleeper because of his athleticism. His biggest issue was that he had 2 ACL injuries in college. In spite of all that he can still jump. I think he has some good upside. This is a guy I would try to hang on to.
