You're right, we've never seen Parker play......PLEASE SON
Of course we've seen Parker play. But we are talking about this years team right now, correct? Parker hasn't played all year and is still hurt. You asked how they can't run the floor and listed Parker. How they hell are they going to run the floor with a player who can't even play? Why do you keep mentioning him about what they should have been and should be doing? Dude hasn't played a game this year but they should be running up and down the court with him?
Last season up until mid way through they never had a fast break either. If Davis and Wilks can create a fast break, why can't Parker, Sanders, and Jackson?
First of all, Davis and Wilks are a lot faster and more athletic than Parker and Sanders. Second of all, Cronin doesn't want to run, that is why they can't. They try it every once in a while but they struggle at it. Mick does not trust his bench and he values the ball too much for a run and gun offense.
Also by athleticism in basketball, I mean being able to run the floor.
Oh, well why didn't you say that. In that case every player in divison 1 is athletic....PLEASE SON. Calling Sanders athletic and then asking if I watch the games: classic.
I dont know if you watch the games, because the PG is always the last one up the floor. He is usually dribbling the ball looking over at Mick for a set.
Yes, he is, when they are slowing it down. There have been numerous occasions when Cash tries to push the ball but nobody else is beating him down the court. Just go back and watch the games, you'll see what I'm talking about.
That is Mick's style. Offensively I find it hard to argue that the tranisition game wont help this team score. They have no shooters and the offensive sets are terrible.
It should help. But to do that they (1) have to practice it more and (2) Mick needs to trust his bench. Can't be run and gun while playing 6 players. I wish it would happen because it would create easier looks and hopefully allow some creativity on offense.
As for you last comment. Just unreal. First off being able to dunk doesnt make you athletic. 2nd, we've seen him dunk, so he is capable. And lastly, you made my point. Don't you think he would have a lot more dunks in a transition game????? I think so. Watching guards do the 3 player weave at the top of the key limits your ability to get high percentage shots
Uhh, yes, being able to dunk is a sign of athleticism. And it's called hyperbole, look it up. Still for a person of his height and length and for being so athletic as you claim, you'd think he'd be dunking a lot more or getting a lot more offensive rebounds. Fact of the matter is he really isn't that athletic. He has long arms and that helps him block shots but his jumping ability isn't anything special.
The funniest part about all this is you and I are pretty much in agreement about the offense and how it's run. It's just that your reading comprehension is so piss poor that you can't even figure it out. Just like the last argument I had when it took about 3 times of saying to LISTEN to the post game for you to even figure it out.
