If Mario has nothing to do with those lineups doing well,why aren't they producing similar results without him? I'd really like to know the answer.
Don't give me that bullchit about small sample size because those are the stats that cover most of our season. You are the one who pulled out a 10 game sample trying to convince me Mario is our 6th man. I have no idea where do you find the nerve to call someone out for using the small sample size.
The question is,why didn't Mario get more burn to see if he can help us especially considering we obviously aren't going anywhere this season? I don't think giving Mario way more minutes would have made a huge difference but I'm sure it would help us in the long run.
Mentioning his mistakes is pointless too. It isn't like our team is perfect. Just look how often Fournier ignores the open man to take a contested shot.
At the moment,we are actually showcasing a guy who is a RFA. Are we at least getting wins doing so? F**K NO. How stupid does one have to be to give the total freedom to a guy who might leave us this offseason? Even if he resigns,we will probably have to overpay him. What a great season would this turn out to be if Fournier leaves and we haven't even given Mario a chance to develop.
You and I had a discussion about Mario's and Fournier's stats and I remember telling you the stats don't tell the whole story. I also said their production would be much more similar if Skiles were to give both of them the same roles. Guess what,I was right. Mario didn't get the same role but just giving him more of a leash does wonders for his game.
Of course he isn't going to turn into a superstar the moment he gets a chance but the improvement will be obvious. Can't believe some guys are expecting big time production from a rookie the moment he gets a chance.
Benching you for every mistake and forcing you to watch guys doing mind blowing chit over and over again and still playing twice as much as you will leave some damage on your mind. Is that so hard to understand?
I really can't understand this Fournier love either. The guy isn't even averaging 15 points and besides scoring,he doesn't bring anything else to the table. The guy he is guarding scores more points than him pretty much every game.
He kills our ball movement and that kind of behaviour is destroying team's chemistry. He doesn't pass and rebound so what is he good for? Look how far has he taken us as one of our main options. I really don't understand how can someone defend him just because he is efficient. It isn't hard to see the negatives outweigh the positives in his case.
This season is a total waste but we should at least give plenty of minutes and opportunities to our young guys. If we don't,they are going to be making the same mistakes again next season because of the inexperience and the people here will bitch again saying they aren't ready and we are going to be heading for the lottery once more.
