Thread: We need a starting center

  1. #1

    We need a starting center

    Okafors limitations are really starting to show. He has had a good start and he brings good things but, he is small and not too athletic. We have to get some legnth on this team or we will never challenge the elite teams.

    Okafor looks like he's mentally checked out again.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    Well I hope you random people that all of a sudden came during the winning streak go away now. This is what happens in the NBA did you forget?

    11-6 is a real possibility.

    Guess the team is coming back down to earth.

    Our biggest priority right now should be NBA quality bigs coming off the bench, because right now we don't have them.

    We aren't a great shooting team, but you can get around that, but it's hard to cover up when you lack size and toughness inside. That is without a doubt this teams weak link.

    not trying to b negative but since when do we have the talent of the lakers and celtics? we just lost to the worst team in the league and have shown a couple of pretty bad holes in our squad, plus we have a tough part of the schedule coming up, idk about u but im hoping for a chance at a championship, and the team we have right now most likely wont cut it (but with a move or 2/gameplan changes on off. definitely could)

    I don't know what we need worse, a center or a wing that can create his own shot. Offensivly we are in a bad situation right now. There are going to be games when the other team is hitting all their shots and we need the fire power to keep up. Right now we cannot keep up with anyone that can go on big runs. Demps needs to address either the center or wing position fast or we are going to be lucky to be .500 2 weeks from now. Man, I was really pumped with the start this team made, but I can see the holes now and they are big ones! I am worried!!

    Mek has to go, the guy is too weak to play center in this league. He is a backup center at best. We need to package him with some other scrubs on this team and hope to pickup a tougher center. We won't get a great center in a trade but maybe someone that has better hands and can finish above the rim. Mek's hands are so weak the wind blows the ball out his hands.

    could we send him to the D-League seriously!?
