Coining a new word? Appropriate in this case.
I love Mel, but it may be that Perez is just ungoable.

76ers Fans Have Resorted To Cheering For The Other Team
http://thesixthirty.com/sports/boban-marjanovic-76ers/
Life for Philadelphia 76ers fans right now has to be painfully difficult.
We’re a solid 15 years removed from the blessed times of Allen Iverson, Larry Brown, and playoff runs – with Sixers fans enduring a host of bad trades, draft picks, and signings in the time since.
They currently find themselves at a strong 1-21 this season, following something their clueless GM calls, “Trusting The Process.”
Yo Sam Hinkie, not everyone can be Theo Epstein. And last night, when cheers rained through the rafters of the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, it wasn’t because of the team that plays there.
In fact, the Sixers lost to the San Antonio Spurs – without Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard – by an NBA 2K count of 119-68. That’s nothing to cheer about.
But a 7’3″, 275-pound Serbian center by the name of Boban Marjanović certainly is.
That’s just one clip of Marjanović’s big night. He put up 18 points, four rebounds, and two steals in 17 minutes of garbage time play last night. But that was by far the highlight of the night.
I mean, how bad must it be as a Sixers fan to watch this bottom-of-the-depth-chart, end-of-the-bench-center toying with your No. 3 overall pick like a bully on the playground. This dude looks like a MonStar from Space Jam, not an NBA player.
Perhaps that’s the exact reason Sixers fans cheered him on so hard. They have nothing else to root for so they resort to the 12th man on the San Antonio Spurs when he unexpectedly gives them a good show.
Which reminds us of last year, when a 76ers fan detailed his comical experience behind the Bulls’ bench during a game in Philly last season.
What a life.
When NBA fans see a dude that tall they immediately think he is a stiff, Boban proving them wrong probably caught them off guard and got pleasently surprised.
PLAY BOBAN.
Good point. A lot of Euro's have to take a bit of time adjusting to that particular rule.

Boban Marjanovic is the first Spurs rookie to score 18+ points in one of his first 11 career games since Kawhi Leonard in 2011.
*kneels at the altar of Boban*
Didn't play like a system player last game.... Got zero minutes against a team with Luis ing Scola and Patrick Patterson
Boban makes Patty look like a 7 year old kid. Pyscho T had the best expression when summing up Boban's size.

That's ing funny.
Boban's hands are bigger than Kawhi's ?
Looks like he's holding a nerf ball:

I think Psycho T was irritated by Boban's ears as well ...
Tyler was likely staring at boban ears tbh. He dunked on 7'7 Kenny george in college so he's seen bigger then boban.
I think Boban would have put up 12 and 5 tonight. Thanks Pop. Fan favorite sat in his giant suit and giant chair in a 40 point blowout.
Welp, I've seen enough. Give this man a place in the All Star Game.
Boban +/- +17 http://www.nba.com/games/20151216/WA...nba:scoreboard
Highest in the team against the Wizards. Promising to see considering he played as part of the regular rotation.
He basically cooled off Gortat. And those blocks at the rim last night is what I expect to see more of in the future.
Had a couple of mistakes on his rotations. But compared to his play in the preseason, it was like night and day out there.
Gortat was destroying West.
This is one of those few times he has played with regular rotation guys and against regular starters. He got exposed a couple of times with the pick and roll and with players shooting the mid-range jumper. The later short, the Spurs can live with.
Hope he plays against Clippers so we can see how he does against bigs like Jordan.

Gortat is a hard cover for West- 1) Gortat is good and 2) West is giving up at least 4 inches
How many inches is Gortat giving up on Marjanovic?
