they do run a nice high/lo, but that's because Monroe is "skilled' enough to run that play

Monroe should be used a lot more in that aspect, cats are sleeping on his all around game. Top 3 passing big in the league. All I'm saying is that it is not used enough, first Monroe needs to get the rock, which can be a chore in itself.

yeah sometimes you can do the work and still not get anywhere lol...I don't see the coordination in the post (or maybe its the comfortability) that lets me believe Drummond will ever be fluid down low with his back to the basket.

Don't start this shyt right here bruh cause you will lose badly. There is no C in the league who can do the things Drummond can do, nobody even close, nikka might be the fastest C ever. There are numerous nikkas with the same stregnths as AD, just not as good in those areas. Don't do this to yourself bruh.
GTFOH.

You don't watch Pelicans games and you don't know what you're talking about.

Detroit You bytch Ass nikka
stop it slime! the fastest center???

Deandre Jordan? Javale McGee? He's faster then both of them??
Yes. faster and more agile with and without the ball (irrelevant with C's for with the ball, but still matters in this convo). Has by far the best hands of all C's also. The best I have seen at catching and finishing since Amare, catching and finishing off the P&R is something AD should have over Drummond, but that's not the case.

he's averaging 13 right now with Jennings :yeshrug: and Jennings really only uses dude for his best interest.
He's not averaging 20 per game in any situation.

Y'all Pistons fans are so desperate to see him become a 'star', you're microwaving to a standard he's currently not capable of. Just be patient, cotdamn.

I been watching a lot this year, AD is the same "MOLD" of player as nikkas like Stromile Swift, Tyus Thomas, ect. He is just lot better than those dudes, which means a lot, but he has strengths that 10-20 other players have had over the last 15 years.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
you're the onthat brought up teams breh...i'll gladly accept there are variable such as rosters, coaching, and roles that will cause a few ppg or rpg here or there. Which basically nets out Deandre Jordan and Drummond. Drummond has not distanced himself from the pack despite being on a losing team where you would think that if he was as good as you say he is, he would be eating. Jordan didn't come into the league playing the MPG Drummond received but i'm not in here saying Jordan is better and i'm not talking about his growth - you are trying to distance Drummond from Jordan when they are basically the same player at this point (skill set wise and stat wise).


:mindblown:

Again, why wasn't Jordan eating when he was on a bad team? Jordan didn't get the minutes when he came into the league because he wasn't as good, and even at 25 he's not better than Drummond is at 20 :russ: You're smoking something if you think Jordan could play for the Pistons and put up the same numbers as him. I'm distancing Drummond from Jordan because they aren't the same player, Drummond is closer to what Varejao was during his best years than he is Jordan.


He's the best PnR big man in the league right now ??? I'm done! Drummond gets 13 ppg basically all on garbage points because all these attributes you think he has, he doesn't! - lol@ thinking the coaching staff is telling Jennings to hold back Drummond and not let him realize his full potential.


:smh: You really are clueless, last season he was 24th in the league with 1.18 points per possession on the pick and roll, as of last month he was 1.33 points per possession as the roll man. Again, that is with Brandon Jennings as his PG, a PG that does not look to pass unless the shot isn't there for himself. You clearly don't watch this team play, the shyt is painfully obvious, even more so when you say Jennings and Monroe are better. Jordan with Jennings would be an ugly ugly thing.

which one of us isn't being patient? we all know he needs to continue to work on things/get better, and that it will be a couple years. He's not supposed to be as developed as he is now, that shows he is dedicated. In due time indeed.

Name me 10-20 players in the last 15 years that could:

How many players in the league can block Aldridge's turnaround jumper TWICE in a game, hit 16-fters off the PNP, slip off PNRs and finish around the rim like a guard and pin guards' shots against the rim after shadowing them off the perimeter?

:popcorn:

I'll wait.
