Is he that bad on defense? Is he any worse than Burks? Has he improved defensively this year?

I've read several scouting reports by different people saying that his defense and attitude is the main thing keeping him out of the rotation. I posted some links in the previous pages, you can read them if you want

Yeah but I only "thought" it, I never "said" it. So I really cannot be held accountable for it.

You SAID that your reasons were discriminatory, you just didn't tell what they were. I am not going to argue more, Hezonja is very athletic anyway.

Exactly.


Donald Sterling would still own the Clippers if he had just "thought it" and not "said it". Big difference.

WTF was I thinking? You are still a very good troll. One of the best I've ever seen.

Yeah, but recently he has started seeing more minutes, no?

Yes, that happened after reportedly his agents had some serious talks with the team's management(I don't know how much influence they have, but it's weird - some speculations say that they were demanding him getting traded if they don't plan giving him playing time). And also... some of those reports I quoted pointing out his attitude, poor body language and total disinterest in defense came precisely from those recent games where he's actually played more.

Ahh, good to know.

Like I said, not in love with him or anything, but he is intriguing.
 
I hate to say this and maybe have to go buy a gun and shoot myself but I agree with Cy on this one about hezonja. when it comes to having alpha dog mentality it could be him. he has all the physically gifts to be special. he also has serious bust potential. I wish the nba would do psychological testing like the nfl. (although it didn't catch Ryan leaf)

The Celtics started doing that years ago, they had a shrink at the Combine, did the interview with ESPN and everythangggggg
 
Pretty sure every team does some sort of psychological test. Isn't that the thing Exum scored off the charts in?

That's the first I've heard of it... anyway this interview this Celtics guy did was supposed to be this new thang that nobody had done before. It involved a series of psychological questions, etc, using some weird matrix that this guy had devised.
 
This Hezonja VS Winslow/Johnson debate - I wonder if it'll turn out similar to the Hayward/George debate????


George was an athletic defensive wing who turned out to be a great offensive player once he's in the league.
