Showtime was the easiest guy to deal with in the league ... Who would have guessed
As a complete player, no. The thing is reality vs fantasy. Iggy may play his role great, I expect him to excel even in the triangle adaptation Kerr is using, but I'm not sure that translates into great stats ... I liken him to Pippen in Portlandpsych do you think tobias>iggy?
Which means he is staying on your team forever lolnot even gonna lie, if anyone wants sully, it'll cost u a 1st rounder.
I'm half way expecting him to be used as a backup 2/3 behind Meeks and Caron. I think minutes are there, but if they go with an 8 man group, I'd expect the bench to be DJ, Pope, and DrummondI expect Pope to have a big year and he's already having a great preseason.
You are on crack if you think Drummond really gonna come off the bench It's either Josh or Monroe coming off the bench (I expect it to be Josh before they trade him) Drummond is a beast and no way are they putting any kind of handcuffs on him. He's pretty much the only one who's spot in the lineup is safe.I'm half way expecting him to be used as a backup 2/3 behind Meeks and Caron.

Inb4 chico offers me Sully for Big Al
He's also the most foul prone, injury prone, and offensively weakened in terms of post moves and free throws of any of them.You are on crack if you think Drummond really gonna come off the bench It's either Josh or Monroe coming off the bench (I expect it to be Josh before they trade him) Drummond is a beast and no way are they putting any kind of handcuffs on him.

And even with those weaknesses (though his post game has been worked on and improved I've heard) he is the future of that franchise and that has been made pretty clear. If he wasn't then there wouldn't have been talks to trade Josh or bench Josh or talks to trade Monroe or have him come off the bench, You won't find a single thing that indicates that Drummond won't the starting center. After how last year went I'll be shocked if Josh or Monroe aren't traded and like I said I'm pretty sure it is gonna be Josh.He's also the most foul prone, injury prone, and offensively weakened in terms of post moves and free throws of any of them.
There's no law that says you cannot give all three of them the big minutes and run a rotation ... Phil did it with Lamar, Bynum, and Pau ... Now while none of those three pistons are as talented or as smart/skilled, they can all get around 30 minutes and hope to contend for a playoff spot if they are ran like LO, Bynum, and Pau were with no fourth big
Also you can get the fuck out a here if you think they are running the 4 out 1 in with Drummond as the post guy. He's not nearly as will imposing or durable as young Dwight in Orlando
