Looks like we're bringing in Joel Anthony.
Well said.He praised Nico then waived him... Pop is tough to take seriously on things like that bc he is probably going to be more encouraging paying lip service to guys that are not playing much, but who he sees working hard in practices etc. I think he has to encourage them somehow bc it's tough to stay motivated looking to improve if you are a young player not getting much run. It's a contradiction.
Pop also spoke glowingly of Rasual Butler... Pop and RC praised Ray Mac as well... Both then waived. It might be better to not get that much praise.
I suspected when the injury happened that Pop was going to try to get someone else. He didn't even feel comfortable playing Davis last game and stuck with Lamarcus most of the first half. He doesn't even trust Dedmon that much... Dedmon minutes fluctuate and sometimes are as short as 12-14.. He basically picks up more minutes if Pau is sucking on D.
Last game It was actually Messina who gave Davis more run in the second half. I agree with Bklynfan though, Davis is still learning, specially defensively. And regardless what we talk on here Pop has played Kyle as a wing a whole lot and most of his minutes have been at the wing and only very ovassionally as a 4 and only stuck to that when he's had a good game (frankly only the Portland game comes to mind, recently). I think both guys are in a short leash. They get opportunities and play more or less depending on how they are doing. I think they needed another big anyways that is a true center bc Dedmon is foul prone still, Lee is not a rim protector and Lamarcus can get worn down over the course of over a month. Kind of tough to ignore that in the span of a month and a half some other big can get a nag and neither Lee nor Dedmon are really ready for starter minutes. Lee has not been durable the past couple of seasons and Davis has had his knee issues. Still I hope they get run. Kyle was fine playing minutes as a 4 last season. It it wa obviously a short stint... he's not a vet at it by any means either.
Yes, praise from Pop for a bench player is often the kiss of death. I thought of Nico and Rasual too.Not to mention George Hill was declared by Pop his "favorite player" and later traded....
Maybe Bryan Forbes is the safest guy on the bench!

^ just about to post that, I guess things could be worse...
Now they are saying fractured forearm.
I don't think he wears diapers. That would be disappointing and a sign of a more serious problem than a broken hand.
Damn. Even worse than Amare' punching that fire extinguisher.
Dirk is lucky he didn't break an ankle kicking that exercise bike. Probably because he didn't land a solid hit on it.
Is he in a retirement home? What's with the ty interior?Pau Gasol Verified account @paugasol

7m Pau said he's targeting the 4-week mark for his return. That's during All-Star break, so he'll be able to give it longer if necessary,
