This got will go blame-free as per usual, then when he has a game a month from now where he hits the shots he's supposed to hit his slurpers will spam the forum
I don't care how good his defense is. He is absolutely useless on offense. You cannot depend on any scoring output from him on the regular. He is a turnover or a turnover that hits the rim first when he drives to the basket. This guy has no business being on the court if he cannot figure out how to put the ball in the hole from inside the 3pt line or drive the ball without turning it over or making a layup every now and then. The 2 really needs to be addressed this off season. Simmons will not be able to cut it. I say bring Hanga next season. He may be able to at least draw a foul.

The D in D-League certainly doesn't stand for defense anymore![]()
He's definitely regressed Offensively this season, but there just aren't any other options for us out there right now. He's on a team-friendly deal and his defense is really important to our team. He's going to be a Spur for at least a couple more seasons.
He is horrible, but the new weapon in his arsenal is... he is slow as .
He is what he is. His shortcomings are even more apparent now that the 80 million dollar big can't do anything on offense anymore and the 45 million point guard can't even suit up.
Seriously can't remember the last time he shut someone down..
2014 maybe? Back when he wasn't 30 years old
Dude is becoming a traffic cone, seriously.
Your typical ST poster will hopefully realize how replaceable this guy is next season... same people that swore the defense would collapse without Splitter
I like that part when they say he was the nucleus of the whole 2014 run, majestical pick Žn roll![]()
Wait. You're not impressed with his 1-7 games he's farting out regularly?
God damn hipster posters. They're also Fathead fans to make it worse
His shot is off and that wingstop defense seems to be gone as well. Not reliable from 3 and sub par defense makes him a negative
Danny has been struggling since he signed the contract. That's an indication of someone who took their foot off the gas, not some calibration issues. He's got 4 at 10m each, and a player option prior to his UFA. Danny is in the driver's seat. He doesn't need to worry.
Look at how his shooting percentage dropped the year after he signed the contract.. and remains. He shot 33% from 3 last season and 39.9 so far this season. Prior to last season his 3pt % hadn't dipped below 40% in 4 years. He signs in the summer of 2015 and bam.. suckage. Not a coincidence his best year was a contract season. That says a lot about a player's effort and going forward it's a good indicator of what you can expect to see from him.
This. Not necessarily in a "he doesn't care" way, but this is my opinion as well.
Not including today, D-League is shooting 35.4% from deep since New Years.
His cheerleaders thought the 33.2% he shot last year was a fluke, but it wasn't. He either is washed, mailing it in, or an alcoholic.
Dont care for some stats regarding his defense. They also say Fathead is an elite defender.
And yet his RPM will probably increase in some illogical way![]()
The guy that created that stat says Curry should be MVP this year. No joke, BillMc can confirm
He doesn't need to go, he just needs to understand what his limitations are. I thought that was a process that was going to happen in the early part of the season, and by this time he would have an idea of what works and doesn't.
So, he should just play to his strengths. I don't mind him taking 3s, even if he clanks them. That's is his game offensively. The putting the ball on the floor or trying to do an entry pass is stuff he needs to stay away from.
he's 6'5 in the prime of his career, played 4 years of college balll and still doesnt want to attack the basket when he gets in the paint. He's looking to pass the ball every time. he just wants to sit at the 3 point line and brick open jumpers all day
it's been a while since i've felt confident when the ball leaves his hand...
still, it's not like we have better options for the most part. yeah, manu is still playing relatively well, but he can't play big minutes. simmons isn't a realistic answer. forbes belongs in china.
His latest contract was widely considered a hometown discount. I was watching the Vegas SL game when it was announced. I will never forget his court side interview when he was asked about that "hometown discount." With what seemed to me like a cat-that-just-ate-the-canary smile, He replied that he thought he was being paid what he was worth. I have never forgotten his expression or his reply.
Exactly why PATFO should be rightly criticized for standing pat at the deadline
