    Had his chance tonight and picked up a tech in 2 minutes. Got yanked immediately after. Just boneheaded. Sad to see because he is the best backup center option we have IMO.

    He did what his job was to do though in that limited amount of time lol. Got into Alvarado mug after jose did the too small.

    It was a close game so JJ couldn't really play but I think Jemison should be used more (like when GS was killing the Lakers just killing them on the offensive glass)

    Yeah, when he’s our best option, you know something went wrong.

    i still prefer koloko to jemison and probably either to len, lol.

    i noticed last night that jemison actually looked smaller than dwight powell out there, even though he's listed as larger.

    anyway, if we have to play one of our non-hayes centers in the playoffs, the game probably isn't going well. or i guess it's going great!

    For what it's worth, Buha thinks we stand pat but noted it could easily change by this weekend.

    I prefer Trey just cause that's who JJ has shown he'll play the most out of that group. Don't think he trusts the others at all. Also Trey is one of our 3 tough guys (others - Doe and Kief) and welcomes physicality. In a rock fight, there's value in that.

    If we face the Dubbs, it would be worth it to see him get under Donkey Green’s skin enough to get him thrown out of a game.

    Yeah but I kind of believe the rumor we’re not going to convert either he or Koloko by waiving someone.

    Which to me doesn’t make sense unless JJ is secretly convinced Len is a better desperation fall back option …. which he might be as we don’t see the practices. Plus maybe the promises made. Shake’s an asset for trade next year and Kieff they like having around … and just maybe there’s some behind the scenes knowledge Maxi will be available in the next few weeks?
