What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
Besides stroke Poop's liberal affirmative action agenda by allowing him to have a coal black starting lineup, tbh?
Deadman is trash and is an embarrassment to the starting lineup. He is the worst big in the rotation and probably shouldn't be in the rotation at all, tbh.

Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
Grab rebounds, and defend. That's playoff basketball in a nutshell. :lol

Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
He's exposed now.
I'm still rooting for him because Gasol coming off the bench is a huge weapon to have. All the Spurs need is for Deadman to just keep pace until Pau checks in.
-
Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
Selective memory? He defends and rebounds. He has an important role and will be huge as we move forward in the playoffs.
-
Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
he had a bad first game. it's fine.
moving along

Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
Take up minutes. He'll be better against a team like Houston. He can't handle Gasol.

His specialty is defense. If he can't handle Gasol, he's useless.
Not sure how Houston will be a better matchup, as well.... he's a foul machine going up against the #1 foul drawing team, and his "defense" will be wasted on Capela.

Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
He's the Francisco Elson of this team. But he starts.

Sorry, I must have missed his defending while getting torched by Gasol tbh.
-
Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
He eats up minutes so that Pau can wait to come in and lead the second unit.
In baseball terms, he's an "innings eater" -- a starting pitcher who can go for a while and allow your studs to rest.
Plus, he sets the defensive tone at the rim for the whole game.
-
Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
Pau starting at this point in his career is a bad idea.
-
Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
With Pau playing so great off the bench, if it ever comes to taking Dedmond off the starting lineup, I'd rather put lee or Bertans in just to not ruin Paus groove. But I'm cheering for Dedmond to get it going
-
Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
We'd better re-sign him tbh

It's his mobility on defense that helps. Gasol uses size and strength to score. Dedmon doesn't have the strength. But vs Houston, he'll be better at guarding the pick n roll. Hardin is a master of the pick and roll, and Pau won't be much help on defense. But Dedmon's mobility will help. Remember it's about team defense, not individual man to man defense.

I hope you're right.
This year against Houston he had 3 points and 8 rebounds TOTAL in 4 games.
Some ugly games too where Pop yanked him ASAP:
-12 in 9 minutes
-10 in 4 minutes

Lee would be a better option tbh.

Dedmon is Bartolo Colon.

No.
He's an athlete.
He plays a sport.
He's not a 300 pound fat ass.
He doesn't drink beer during games.
He plays more than once every 5 days.

He got schooled by one of the best centers in the league tonight in Marc. I give him a pass for that. It's not like a scrub went off on him.

That's about all he is. He's got zero skills, which you can get away with in the NBA being a big man if you can jump high. Deadman didn't start playing basketball til like 19, so it's understandable.
Bartolo is still a better athlete than Deadman, though. Skills are a part of being a sportsman, the most important part.

Tebow is fuckin' terrible right now. Batting .167 in a league that's basically a half-step up from high school :lmao
The Deadman didn't start playing basketball til 18, averaged a huge 7 points and 7 boards at a small High Desert high school and STILL made the NBA because he's tall and can jump.

Real talk. Why do you make fun of fat baseball players when you're a fan of the fattest sport in the world?

13.8 is below 14. :toast
Oh, rounding.
Then you won't mind me sending you 48.00 instead of 50.00 if I should lose the bet.
Meanwhile, your boy is probably pushing 30-35% BF. :lol
https://cdn0.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/ucT...-8943197.0.jpg
I will say this about your boy, though. He's still a far more impressive athlete than those TicTacTwinks you've become "enlightened" by.

And not sure why you think I'm a handegg fan. I can't name 5 starting American Rugby starting QBs. Only follow Baylor in CFB and CBB due to the fact it's my alma mater.

What's with the handegg name? Oh, you think "football" was soccer's name first, do you? I got a few minutes. We can bust yet another Eurotard myth (preview: "eggball" games actually deserve to be called football more than soccer).

Re: What Does Deadman Do, TBH?
Deadman will cost the Spurs the 'ship if he keeps on getting trotted out as a starter.
