Upshaw moving to LA (undrafted to Lakers)

[bananasnblondes]

That man will be dead in 6 months

 

[RoadDawg55]

Possibly. If he stays somewhat clean though, he's easily better than Sacre and some other bums on their team.

 

[RaceBannon]

That's a good move. The Laker honks on the radio last night wanted them to take him at 34. If he stays cool they got a big man for nothing

 

[Tequilla]

No risk high reward ...

Odds are far greater than 81% that he washes himself out of the league

 

[Gladstone]

No risk high reward?

edit: yeah i guess that makes sense from a $$$ standpoint

 

[Tequilla]

No risk = no draft pick ... easy to take a flier on

 

[Doogles]

He looked good in SB training. He's probably not far enough from his checkered past to stay on the right track. I wish him well, but cheaters cheat, drinkers drink, and losers lose. I hope I'm wrong, but you are who you are at some point.

He was so far off the rails at UW that he was leading the country in blocks and had more blocks than any other PAC 12 team by himself. Last time he played he dominated the foreign kid from Utah who will probably be a lottery pick next year.

He doesn't even have to necessarily be clean. I agree with you that he won't. He just needs to stay out of trouble.

Upshaw was a good player despite Romar. That has to be worth something to an NBA team. Fuck, the Blazers should have got in on that. Fucking worthless franchise.

This! I argued this with DNC multiple times. Upshaw with that athletic 7 foot body needed to start, not sit for 10 minutes after warming up. It was RomarFS to have him sitting at the start of games when he was clearly the top player on the team

Like it mattered.

Dude was too busy slanging crack rock to even warm up.

They were 14-5 with Upshaw and won 2 games without him. Romar's problem this year wasn't how he coached the team when Upshaw was playing, it was how he coached them without Upshaw.

Upshaw should have been starting day one. I have no confidence in Romar as a coach

[PurpleThrobber]

The Lakers need to trade for Wes Matthews, Jr.

The debate on starting vs not starting is pretty ridiculous. The guy needed to play around 25-30 minutes a game(which he did sans foul trouble). I thought romar did well using him in the game at most times. Who cares if he starts the first couple minutes if he's in for 14 minutes of the 1st half?

After some of the rumors of upshaw, I kept thinking of that documentary of Chris herron standing on the corner waiting for pills. Always thought it would be funny to see a 7'2" guy in the parking lot making a few transactions and trying to blend in.

I need to thumbs to give the first paragraph a thumbs down and the second paragraph a thumbs up.

Fuck that, this is clearly another example of why Romar can't recruit bigs, can't coach bigs and can't win with bigs. Guys this fucking talented don't need to warm up and sit for 15 minutes watching the likes of Kemp and Baby Durrant fuck up the game. I go back to this. Had he picked Oregon instead of Romar, the guy is a top 6 pick and Oregon is a sweet 16 team at worse.
