Here's a scenario. Favors hears the doorbell, and trips over Boozer's bag on the way to the door. Gets hurt. We need someone to start in his place. Who is it?

1- Gobert
2- Evans
3- Locke
4- Machado
5- Biedrins
6- Corbin

Well, which one do you go with?

hotttnickkk hadn't thought of this scenario, and he thanks you for this detective clue.

I think I remember Lindsey talking about this bag in his weekly interview. It was a few weeks ago.

I'm picking Locke. Look at that leprechaun laugh maniacally at the idea:

What would your face look like if someone took a picture of you taking a growler? Just let it out is my motto. Locke hadn't had a BM in four days, so I say what's wrong with a little passion.

I heard that Gobert was taking off his pads, growing a pair And trying to man up. He is also developing a go to move and 16 counters.

Thank heavens there is a game in less than 24 hours.

A game will only solidify the thoughts of some posters about certain players. At what point do you acknowledge that certain players were huge mistakes?

A lot of people will think I'm nuts, but I agree with this. The only problem is nobody in the lottery will be trading their pick this year. If the All Star break came around and Favors was still struggling offensively (and Burke too), I would consider a trade w/ ATL consisting of Favors for Dennis Schroeder, their '14 pick, and some second rounders.

It's such a dream, but I would love to see a lineup of:

Schroeder
Hayward
Wiggins or Parker (I dream big)
Kanter
Gobert

^ that would be an incredibly hard team to beat, much less get a shot off on.

Love me some Schroeder.
 
By the way, I have never understood the talk of Kanter as a 4...ever. He could manhandle most 4s on offense in the post, I agree with that. However, he cannot defend quick and stretch 4s. Even Favors struggles with this. One of Kanter's greatest attributes is his quickness and power against other centers but also his ability to take them away from the basket with his jumper. Kanter can play pg for all I care on offense; the other team has to defend him. Defense is where it would not be pretty. Also, I am sick of this true center bull crap talk. The only area that Favors and Kanter might not be considered a "true" center is in their head height. Kanter doesn't block a lot of shots either, but is a solid post defender. Both of them have sufficient standing reach to be considered a "true" center. Every player is different and brings different aspects to the game.

Generally when refering to a position people are talking about offense. There is no rule that says a 4 can't guard a 5 on D.
