Pointing out that injuries haven't helped Dante's career doesn't mean you're making excuses. Some of you guys get too damn sensitive with your takes.
Injuries aren’t why the kid can’t hit the broad side of a barn or is an epileptic Baryshnikov on the court.

Other than Henry Rowengartner, when did an injury ever help a player?I never insisted that's why he can't shoot.
That said, injuries clearly hasn't helped him either.
There's a very logical reason why the front office would be so attached to Dante for as long as they have been and I believe it's being overlooked (or just scoffed at). Who amongst our roster that is not part of the current core (Donovan, Rudy, Mike, Bojan) has enough potential that they can be a legitimate gamechanger for the franchise in the future? Dante. And he's really it. Maaaaayyyybbbe Royce although I would say that as much as I love Royce I think he's probably just a role guy. After we traded for Mike Conley, Dante became even more important in the eyes of the front office because we gave up some youth and future picks. The front office is/has been, playing the long game in regards to Dante. Hoping that it pays off. That can be hard on fans because we want everything right now. It's kind of the nature of being a fan. I'm not saying you have to agree with the front office on this subject. I just think seeing their point of view gives the opposite perspective. It's not that they are infatuated with him or blind to the injury issues.
DL was also dumb to make Hood the go to guy look how well that worked out to be. But Dante sucks more than Hood who was drafted after him
Point flew right over your head at full speed
Ok man, guess you have a heart for glassbones.
And then it boomeranged and flew over your head again, dang. Read my post again man. If you do you will see that I didn't take a side in this argument. I did not express my opinion on the subject. I was simply saying I can see the point of view of DL and the front office.
How are we going to address all the bandwagon fans this upcoming season?
