DeAndre Jordan?
In years past there have been a myriad of players who just can't crack the rotation, because they are either not 'quite' as good as the player in front of them or because of having an inferior contract, and therefore trying to get value for someone at the expense of developing/utilizing superior talent. Sometimes, a player is just in a coach's dog house, for no 'apparent' reason.
I ask this, as I haven't been able to watch as much basketball this season as I would have liked.
Who are the best PF/C's that just don't get to play, or are underplayed based on their contributions?
Please explain why you believe this.
I am trying to get a feel for what is out there.

DeAndre Jordan?
I am assuming the dj mbenga comment is a joke... But what about DeAndre Jordan? Is he really any good? I don't believe I have ever seen him play.
Deandre Jordan's no joke, he's a double-double machine if he gets PT. Last year he started a few games when Kaman, Camby, and Z-Bo were all out, and he managed to put up some monster numbers. I definitely agree with that one. My other honorable mentions would be louis admunson from the suns, and brendan haywood.
I've always thought that David Lee could beast in a good system around him.
I like Lee's game a lot, but I consider him a known commodity at this point, much like Paul Millsap.
Do you think the Clippers (in their infinite wisdom) are looking to clear room for Jordan by getting rid of Camby/Kaman, or get rid of DJ all together?
yes dj mbenga was a joke. But on a real note, I agree DeAndre Jordan maybe
Agreed on DeAndre - kid will be a beast when unleashed if he can cut his foul rate.
Haywood plays. Instead, I'd say JaVale McGee, who looks raw but will develop given playing time.
JJ Hickson, now that Snaq has come back, and Mareese Speights when he returns from injury.
Pavel Podkolzin... We never used his dominant size,blocking,strength,and his post game that is better than Dho
Avery and his bull .
I thought Rasho was getting minutes now. Oh well wonder how Hadaddi would do if he were on another team where the coach would actually try the guy out.
I am less interested in guys who have never played versus guys who have actually shown stuff on the court...
Pavel Podkolzin = Ratko Varda?
Again, I think Gortat qualifies as a known commodity. He was a highly prized FA last off season, and was going to start for some team had Orlando not matched (after the Turkgalu thing).
How about Blatche? if he doesn't qualify, I think Brendan Wright will be a solid contributor if he comes back from injury.
Actually, he plays, and he sucks
I don't know anything about either. Can you tell me more?
Blatche had some potential when he got playing time this year, but when Antawn came back, his minutes were limited and his stats really dropped down. If the Wizards want to build a future, Andray Blatche has that ability to be the next big guy that can consistently put up really good numbers. As for Wright, Brendan Wright and Anthony Randolph both lots of potential imo, however, the difference is that Wright right now is plagued with injuries.
"J-Peezy" Josh Powell. The lakers secret weapon. And no, this is not a joke.
Powell seems like a tweener in the same vein as Brandon Bass. Would that be accurate?
Actually, you are the mother of sucking.
And by the way,Rasho is doing more then OK, when he gets a chance.
