I think most of us Sherlocks here already had that one figured out, Sir'Dom.

:chuckle:

Felt like Comeback Kid asked me a very personal question, like if I had day-to-day communication with Sir'Dom, and thought it would be nice of me to mention it, mostly because sarcasm doesn't really show in forums and especially so when you are on the older side. I'm not there yet, but it's slowly approaching.

Today for example I experienced my first senile moment where I passed by my pharmacy and saw a totally new shop in place...a shop that has 3 other branches on a very small street.. and thought to myself that these mofos are taking over everything, and I need that fucking pharmacy for my pills. I asked two guys if it had been shut down, and they told me no... but I kept looking around for 5 minutes and saw nothing. I asked a 3rd guy and he told me it was 100 meters the other way... I was in shock and relieved!
 
He moves like a SF. He can stay with guards pretty well.

I'm rooting for him. I saw his ability from the very start. I still prefer Sir'Dom because he is my guy, but what can you do?? I was his coach too.
You are right - he plays like a SF. He is able to keep his ground against guards. Just love his game from both ends. The fact that we have him very cheap for the next couple years is a blessing.

I love when he gets the ball he is ready to shoot and fly. The more playing time he gets, the more confidence he will have.

He will look his best when surrounded by good players and playmakers. So it is wise playing him with the starters. Although, like Comeback Kid has said, he has an inbetween game that he hasn't been able to showcase yet for different reasons, so hopefully once he gains more confidence both from the coaching staff and himself he will be able to assert himself more even when surrounded by lesser talent.

More confidence shot will go in:
Dean Wade shooting a catch and shoot 3
Kevin Love shooting a catch and shoot 3

A but it’s not a huge difference. And as to the rest of the game of basketball such as something called defense it is absolutely A.

Sir Dom is playing today. So I have no idea if it was an injury, or just didn’t get into the last game, but the good news is he is playing!

he and stevens were great finds. Thing wade has more upside but stevens should have a long career off the bench

these two allows some combination of osman, dotson available for trade

Here’s a stat I just dug up for recent player value. I went back over the last 10 games and added up the + - stats for our primary players. Over the last 10 games we went 5-5. Over those 10 games: Dean Wade +25, Darius Garland +7, McGee -8, Windler -10, Osman -23, Sexton -28, Allen -32, Okoro -42, Nance -57. Shocking?
