Edey

It's not my job to correct ignorant statements as to Zach's ability to get up and down the court without seeing a degradation in performance.

Its not your job to post on message boards either,.

Just the common curtesy and how a message board works.

What is the point of disagreeing without your point coming across.

And to your point...WRONG

He is not going against college players anymore and its a different pace in the NBA. He is having a very good rookie season, but if you dont recognize the difference it takes to play in the NBA vs NCAA, not sure we can have a real conversation.

Let me guess, you didnt get to play in high school much because the coach hated you?

Nah, original statement was so ludicrous that most people understood. Nothing personal, I can admittedly be an asshole.

you seem happy with yourself, then again, ignorance is bliss.

I apologize. I don't think your view is well informed but if I didn't want to get into a discussion with you I should have just ignored it. Sorry for being a jerk.

Did you watch the game last night, I did not, I have watched a few Memphis games, I do have the league pass, but I noticed he only played 13 minutes. I am a bit surprised because I thought he was a decent matchup for Hartenstein. But he did foul 3 times in that 13 minutes. I am guessing they went small against OKC eventhough Chet was back. Jaren played 35 minutes, Clarke 22 mins and Santi played 25 mins.

I dont like using plus/minus, great stat for half a season or more, but flawed for one game, so why didnt Edey get more time?

I am curious about Edey in the modern NBA.. He would of dominated just 20 years ago. And Hartenstein is a bit of a throwback type himself, and he played a full game,

As a Cavs fan I focus on them, but I do try and catch some Purdue guy games and obviously that means Edey. I would love to have an informed conversation, I promise you I am a ton more knowledgeable than you are giving me credit for, I am not going to slap back and prove it with insults, but if you have a take on Edey, lets hear it. Clearly Jenkins still has issues playing Edey because he feels his defense makes him unplayable at times or he would get more minutes.

Check out Edey's +/- for this season (half season right?). He is top 40 in the entire league as a rookie even with adjustments and the unfavorable rookie whistle. I think he will be fine.......

I agree, why i said half season +/- works in the NBA. He was only -5, but had 3 fouls. I jsut think Hartenstein would have been a good matchup. I get the OKC is the best team in the league and with Chet back that is a whole different set of issues.

But Hartenstein had 5 fould and played a whole game, why not dump the ball down low to Zach and make Hartenstein defend and foul.

Just curious if someone watched the game. I think Zach has been a top 3 rookie this year from what I have watched. SO not complaints on him, but if we are talking about him, I want to talk warts and all.

From what I read on the Twitter posts and the like, a lot of fans questioned his playing time as well.
