Nazr is worth his weigh in gold right now. As much as Beast is dominating the paint, I shiver to think about Rasho pussying it up out there. Nazr's post moves are markedly improved as well. And yes, the leg hold was smoothness.
This guy needs some serious love from us. His play in the first quarters of both games has been freaking huge. 3 steals and 5 offensive boards, and delivering as the go-to guy early is nothing to forget... not to mention that nice leg hold he put on Hunter.

That was so illegal! I *heart* Nazr.
Don't tell Sparky this!![]()
Nazi is Hakeem....
Rasho actually played good defense on the Suns team. He defended the pick and roll better than anyone.
But then Nazr got those strips on Amare.
Did you hear Walton gushing over Nazr Timvp? Calling his moves Hakeem like?![]()
"Shake and Bake" Nazr !!!
Walton gushes that Little Nash Rambler, MVP not being enough, is the Best Player In The NBA.
When Walton gushes, nobody listens.
So what happens with Rasho if they decide to keep Nazr?
Trade Rasho for Malik!!!!!!! Is it possible??
O i know where Rasho is also better than Nazr!!--> in NBA Live 2005![]()

How can you applaud Nazr? He was laying down on the job in the paint during that crazy ass whirlwind play! Hakeem comparisons are a tad premature. I think it would be better to compare him to a taller version of Rose, sort of a "Malik on stilts." Tons of hussle on both ends, aggressive going after the ball on post defense. He's a little prone to foul trouble, but otherwise I really can't find much to complain about. He's gotten much better at finishing strong instead of up faking 14 times under the hoop and getting stuffed.
Let's not go overboard. He's doing a great job, but Hakeem? Please.![]()
He's playing with great confidence, we can say the guy finally found a home in the NBA. Props to Nazr.
I extremely surprised by Nazr's contribution, but Nazr has a long way to go in rebounding, or just getting into position to rebound and block. He really loves to spectate 3-pt shots from no man's land and then jog down the floor, unless he's lucky enough to have a long rebound hit him in the head.
He's also very slow in defensive rotations and help defense. There were serveral times last night where he didn't even both to put his hand (seems like Pop has told our Bigs not to put there hands??) as Amare or whoever drove past him at the basket, nevermind attempt to block the shot.
Nazr's clearly more effective on offense and RB, but I find him strangely lackadaisical and unaggressive on defense compared to Rasho, and since the Spurs interior defense is the basis of the Spurs success ....
Wait 'till NBA Live 2006 !!!
Yeah Nazr will be in the starting line up.
Sorry Rasho fans but this is our future starting center
unless something else happens this offseason. The guy
is a monster on the glass with some decent post moves.
so Nazr shouldve fouled Amare on a dunk attempt??Amare or whoever drove past him at the basket, nevermind attempt to block the shot.
Sorry skip, your not gonna stop Amare when he wants to dunk the basketball.
Mohammed played good D last night, getoff already.
I love Nazr, but the question is: what happens to Rasho this off season?
if another long athletic center cna be found, or Javtokas is good enough to play american ball, then hes traded to the quickest suitor.
Hopefully for a small forward.
But Rasho's days are definately numbered.
uh.. he had 2 blocks and 3 steals in 28 minutes and only 1 TO.
Plus he moves so much better than Rasho, only bad thing I can say about Nazr is that he has some slippery hands.
Umm... nothing?
