DWill on Fes

[zman1527]

Fes has had some really, really bad games, but in general I agree with DWill.

Maybe some really really bad episodes of 2 to 3 minutes, but those are not really "games". Jerry is ready to pull him instantly almost every time he steps on the court. It seems to me that many times he starts a little slow in the first couple of minutes, but IF ALLOWED TO REMAIN IN THE GAME he generally settles down and performs fairly well. Oh, and even when he plays like a goofball, he is always a large 7' 1" goofball who clogs the lane.

Fes is as hot and cold of a dude as you'll find in the league. Sometimes he gets minutes and racks up fouls on consecutive plays. Sometimes he comes in and plays well. The dude has potential but he's wildly inconsistent. You never know what the hell you're gonna get out of him, and him singlehandedly putting the other team in the bonus has got to grind the coaching staff's ****.

Maybe some of those fouls are bad calls. Maybe the refs are the ones who are inconsistent.

Sometimes this is true. The foul called on him when Cousins smashed into him is a good example.

Of course. NBA refs are awful. But getting 3 fouls in consecutive trips typically isn't due to the refs. I've seen just as many games where Fes fouled and fouled and sat his butt back on the bench in 3 minutes, versus how many I'd consider him putting in valuable minutes. And I've been a Fes supporter ever since he started getting time. He has a huge upside - just plays really dumb sometimes.
