Look there's no doubt in my mind that TT will become a force sometimes soon, it's very unfortunate it has been a slow slow process with him, but patience is the key word.

Nazy, like some one said earlier, his stats are still mis leading. Ask TMS who said last season ( when kt got off to the same splendid start his having this year) how invisible he was despit posting some good #s. Most of look at the sats after the game and see nazy's #s and are like WoW.... he had that many rebounds.

But the reality is a lot of mis tip-ins ( although some putbacks do fall for him) and offensive rebounds that normally don't account for bucket.

IMO you want to see Nazy get to the line at least 7 to 10 times a game, and maybe avg. 2 blocks a game, while changing at least 1/2 a dozen other shots. Thats when he would consider a major impact.

Yeah but I think there's a point where you can wish for too much from a guy thta's just not his game while underappreciating what he does give.

um... because its his name, so it has a correct spelling. You can spell mine Mick, but that would be wrong.

And I'm not making fun, I'm just trying to understand. Its not like Iguadala or however you spell Big Z's name. Its Nazr. N-A-Z-R. Is it a remembering thing, or a "I'm going to write it how I want and damn the system!" thing?
