Five in 21 minutes. Yikes.I worry about his fouling, but that might get better when he learns the D.
dont know solid, I just thought it was ING hilarious.
Found it on a st louis cardinals message board.

Knicks fans are the best judges of talent in the league, if not the world!
one of those fouls was bogus.
Him and Duncan stood straight up a guy runs straight into both of them, neither do anything, and Nazr gets the call.
Its not that big a deal, when he learns the defense, he'll get better.
I agree with whottt that many of his fouls were just stupid. Dunno if that can be trained out of him or if we would even want to since it's a by-product of being aggressive. It's a good trait for a bench player.
Hey, why worry about the fouling? It's called protecting the basket. Of course you never want to give up points, but if the foul occurs in trying to stop a sure fg, then they are simply strategic moves. They may miss one or both (if they shoot ft like the Spurs).
And now with Rasho and Nasr we have 12 to give before we lose our big men.
His fouls are at a career high what gives?
Smart fouls are good. Right now, he's not fouling smart and would foul out if he played 25+ mpg like everyone here is asking.Hey, why worry about the fouling? It's called protecting the basket.
are you wanting him tp play 25 plus minutes?
i want to see who shows up vs. detroit....we need all our bigs to be healthy and ready to scrap...
A lot of his fouls seem to come from trying to make up from being out of position. I'll cut him a pass and let the staff work on that one.
A guy with bad hands doesn't catch that rebound that Duncan tipped to him, and then turn and finish with a bank shot.Those of you expecting him to have a J, good hands, and not be foul prone, are in for a rude awakening. The Knicks fans said those were all his weaknesses(along with rotation on defense, and not passing the ball)...and so far they are accurate again.
The only rude awakening here is that you're apparently not watching the games. Whenever he gets a hand on the rebound, it ends up coming down on his hands. That is not a sign of bad hands.
As for defensive rotations, I saw him make some nice ones last night. Some of the Spurs have taken a whole year to get down Pop's defensive schemes and rotations, but somehow you want to judge Nazr in four games of limited action. Just admit you still want Rose and you'll do yourself a favor.
Well I watched him stroke a J from outside the FT line last night, certainly had a nice rotation to it and hit nothing but net.They said he had absolutely no touch on his J, that he usually doesn't pass it once he gets it(no matter where he is on the court),
You might want to let Tony Massenberg know that Nazr never passes, I mean it's not like he got two buckets off of Nazr interior passes the other night or anything (and would have had a third if he was looking for it).
Bury the hate man, it's pretty sad that you're apparently 1) not watching the games and 2) putting way too much faith in New Yawkas.
Nazr made some great passes. He had some trouble catching low post entry passes, but that might be partly the passer's fault on atleast one of those. He commited a lot of fouls, but I think he can easily improve in that area. T Mass was a foul a minute guy and he was able to play more minutes. Overall, I don't think he has bad hands, or is slow. He goes strong to the basket and looks to finish plays. I think he could average a little over a block a game in the Spurs' defense.
he's thicker than i expected
i remember him being slender
i am pleased

He averaged right at 1 block per game for the Knicks. I don't know if it will get to that piont this year, but next year I expect him to be swatting two a game in the Spurs system.
what a forum, aggies and longhorns coming together for a common cause
awesome points aggie, exact same things I saw.
His closeout and block on Speedy Claxton was VERY nice.
I love what Im seeing out of him.
THe SPurs may have found the Center they wanted int he summer of 03.
If this keeps up, I like the possibilities of packaging Rasho and maybe Barry to get a great small forward, or a package of shooting guards and forwards.
Only great things have come out of this Rose for Nazr trade.
I know what he averaged, that's why I said, "he could average a little over a block". A little to me could mean .5 bpg over. I also meant that to mean he would be averaging that for the rest of this season.
If he progresses like I think, and hes starting next year, then average 2- 2.5 blocks a game.
Hes that good, and that atheltic and long.
Where's the Rasho-love, T-Park? I thought you had silently become T Park Num 8....what gives? Are you turning into T Park Num 2 now?
Now that's just dumb, isn't it?
Make that N Mo Num 2.
Ive been o the Mohammed bandwagon since November.
I attended a Pacers Knicks game in Indiana, and this guy played O'Neal straight up, head on, matching block for block, rebound for rebound, and jump hook and turn around jumper for turnaround jumper.
This guy will be fantastic for this team in the future.
I like Rasho, but Im also realistic, with time, coaching, and familiarity, this guy WILL be all star material, with the Spurs.
Did you smoke something T Park?
No.
Once again, I like Rasho, but Mohammed is clearly a better player.
A total stooge would be blind to that.
Pop just said on the pop show, if one is playing better than the other, they are gonna get the majority of the minutes, he doesn't think starting is that big of a deal.
The Slovenian army is looking for a new General.
sigh
