Was Fes' Play Last Night An Aberration?

One Brow said:
Fesenko was only in one rotation (I presume you mean 5-man group) that played over 20 minutes last season, according to 82games.com, so you don't really have reliable statistics there.

Everyone in this thread is glad Fesenko is doing well.

I take it you mean 20 minutes a YEAR, and not 20 minutes a game, eh, Eric?

Hell, yeah, I'm delighted that Fess is much improved. Just lke any "hater" would be, I spoze.

The onliest real thang that puzzles me is how to account for the vast improvement over the course of the off-season when Fess didn't even play in no NBA games this summer, ya know? It really aint even possible. Ya hafta immediately suspect that Fess's apparent improvement is just an optical illusion, or sumthin. It probly aint real and probly aint gunna last.
 
Dead on.

You finally got it. Either he fizzles and you are right or he continues his climb and IGS and myself are right and he was already there but just needed the chance/minutes to prove it.

You haven't made your position on this completely clear, Go4, so I'll leave you out of it. But that aint S2's position (at least not on any consistent basis). S2's recurrent theme (when it suits his purposes, anyway, although I will concede that he commits himself to contradictory claims, as it suits him) is that Fess did NOT develop last year, because Sloan prevented him from doin so. What else could explain his failure to completely dominate the entire front line of the Lakers?

Yes, but you see the optical illusion of his improvement will lead to actual playing time, which as has been well established always leads to an actual improvement. So it all works out in the end.

Thanks, eh, Game!? Ya just changed my expectations about Fess from pessimistic to optimistic.
 
Hopper, not trying to troll, but I have a question. Was your mother of the rotund variety?

So all in all, how was Fes last night? I saw Nene blow by him the one time. But overall, ona 1 to 10 scale, how was he?

I probably give him about a 6 maybe even 7. Did have 3 assists. Dont think we used him enough in the post though. I think I would have him play more minutes than Jefferson last night, but I am sure Big Al will improve.
