    Even Mozgov apologists have to admit now that Mozgov is a bum.

    Finally the denial in the coaching staff seems to have come to an end.

    It was time for a change. Hopefully results aren't for 1 game only.

    Lol, why are we labeled apologists just for saying he's an average player?

    And yes, he was and still is, an average player.

    The problem is that people wanted and expected an average player to erase the defensive mistakes of a horrible defensive team. He was never going to do that.

    Zu is above average often times though, and has a better skill set for helping with this team's deficiencies. Therefore he's getting the minutes now.

    I know someone in here who disagrees with Mosgov not playing. I won't name any names but I heard Lawrence Taylor and Ladainian Tomlinson really like Mosgov. Also, Larry Tate bewitched himself into thinking Mosgov was perfect for this team and the LifeTime channel is going to show a highlight of Mosgov's 2016 playoff run with the Cavs. It's shorter than a 30 second commercial but a highlight none the less.

    Nope not me OX :Laugh: Just never believed and still don't that he's as utterly worthless as you and "Mr. Happy" always paint him. I was all over Zu's jock after seeing his limited 18 years old highlights when we first drafted him and then found what little footage I could of chubby Marc Gasol as a 24 year old rookie for comparison. Annoyed the s*** out of realdeal at the time. I like him lots and Tarik too.

    Sorry LT. He is utterly useless. And you saw it first hand in the Knicks game. He is a massive liability in every facet of basketball. He does nothing positive. He is Rob Sacre with a large contract.

    Many here or most hate his contract and rightly so, and mediocre performance but the utterly worthless as a player isn't agreed upon by others as well whose opinions I value as much as yours. But what the hell you two love pillaging the guy so have at it. At least you're funny with it with me. :rock: Zu's getting his run now so I'm happy.

    I do not analyze from opinions. I analyze by performance. If I am brutal, well, when you're that big and agile and suck, it bothers me. It bothers me a lot. It means his work ethic and his seriousness for the game is a D-. Mosgov should be a 15-10 guy in this league but he does not put in the effort to make himself a smart player or put enough effort to make a difference in a game in and game out bases.

    I'm wondering myself if this slap of reality going forward may spur more from him in his limited minutes on the floor for exactly what you say and I agree we ought to be seeing from him consistently. It's not like it's never there. Some of his limited comments seemed to say whoa what just happened.

    He WAS an avg player......and why is it wrong to expect more from Moz? He's not paid like an avg player, so we shouldn't expect avg. You DONT get benched when you make Moz type of money if you're just avg.

    He's paid exactly like an average player at his position given the new CBA.
