Faried can’t rebound. Dude averaged 23% defensive rebounding rate for his career and last year with the Rockets. That’s unacceptable as a center.
"If used correctly..." The problem (from afar) is was whether or not KF was used correctly by staff or KF free-lanced away from correct usage???
To GG's credit he is learning to play to what is demanded of him for him to play; heavy regrets for him w/his injury. As to KF? I believed in him, for a long time tho't he would flourish at TheToyShop. It seemed he would, but... But what, exactly? Is his next gig in TheBig3?
Long range 3's that can help spread the floor. Signed for very cheap this time around. I like Faried, but come on.
Did you watch last season? The difference between us going to our first finals in over 20+ years was a high energy scrub named Kevon Looney. Looney is pathetic. All he did was grab a few offensive rebounds & tipped the series in GS favor. We struggled rebounding ALL season last year yet you're sitting here telling me Faried isnt a valuable asset coming off the bench. If Faried plays we're probably NBA champions last year & this year. Rebounding, not more 3pt shooting is what we need
Yeah, but he sucked at rebounding. Give it up. He's gone. He never fit here. Couldn't do what we asked of him. He got offensive boards when we needed defensive boards. He shot long 2s when we needed buckets at the rim. He failed.
Faried averaged 13pts 8 rebounds in 24 minutes in Houston. Of the 8 rebounds he averaged 3 offensive rebounds a game. Suck?
For a Center? Yes, he sucks at rebounding. He averaged a 23% defensive rebounding rate for his career and last year with the Rockets. That’s unacceptable for a center, which he has to play in our offense. The game has changed and he never changed with the times. That’s why he isn’t signed.
Yes, I agree he is a pretty solid offensive rebounder. Are you under the believe that our offense needs help?
Just to piggyback with a little context. Clint Capela played 33 minutes last year & averaged 16pt & 8 reboounds We lost to GS because of rebounding. Rebounding will make or break us this year
