His best days are all ahead of him.

We are playing for the future I have no problem with Rose playing Emery.

Unfortunately we don't have a junior or senior that is better, so you are right

2/8/16 9:17pm

This is a perfect example of how to skew numbers to makes them say what you want

Haha, how did I skew the numbers? I took overall stats from this season in the

You took the positive numbers to make your point

gurt

Dude I love you. You're one of my fav people on the board

gurt

2/8/16 9:34pm

Also I bet if you asked nick he would say he is not shooting well

gurt

2/8/16 9:44pm

My point was, he's shooting as good as Fischer and no one seems to be talking

Ok so maybe what you meant to say is

It's pretty obvious he is the most talented player on the team. He's just a TF

He just has to learn to not jack up crap shots. That will come with experience.

2/8/16 10:19pm

^^^This!^^^ When he's not selfishly forcing shots, he's awesome.

2/8/16 10:30pm

I don't think he sees this as selfish. I think he really thinks those are going

Maybe, but forced shots deny teammates open shots. Bad shot selection is just a
