I guess we need to get him playing time somehow. Probably better than jus sitting on the bench watching everyone else play. Is it bad that i forgot he was even on our team? If anything at least this shows that we really are going to push for a playoff spot, we're not developing our young guys.

Duh, play Sergio... he's the cure all

why would you post this?

seriously. i haven't seen anyone suggest Sergio is the solution to any problems, except having to watch Jack fumble around. This topic has nothing to do with Sergio. If you want to hear about Sergio less, stop introducing him to topics that don't concern him. jeez.

Uh-oh.

IIRC, he was kind of PO'ed last time he got sent down. Hopefully he'll have a better attitude this time around.

Does this hint at Oden practicing more?

McBob was a practice player only so if we don't need him for that does that mean Oden is taking McBob's practice minutes?

hmmmm....

interesting question. I hope so, yet at the same time, I hope they are careful.

develop McRoberts is a good idea

some sucker GM might be duped into including him as trade fodder

McRob

has done well each time he's played this season (which has been like twice, unfortunately). He can provide rebounding as well as 5 more fouls to pound the opposition with.

I don't know why he hasn't gotten more of Channing Frye's time lately.

It seems we had something going with this kid after the Detroit game and then it just died.

Mc

must be averaging 6 points a minute!!! now I know this is against other bench players but the guy deserves a shot in a real game situation. Its not like he'll ever get the ball in the D-league its just a bunch of guards who think they're tight trying to make a name for themselves by shooting the ball every posession

So, now that McRoberts is sent down

We've officially decided as a franchise to tank the rest of the season to join the Roy Hibbert sweepstakes :-( It's just sad we gotta tank so blatantly, and I hope we don't get reprimanded by The Commish. Really, though, I can't see how we won't get fined pulling off crap like this.

If we don't have Joshie-pookie-face (that's his team nickname), I can't see us blowing anyone else out for the rest of the season because we have ZERO incentive to do so. Who will get to play more? Von Wafer? Since his teammates found out he isn't actually a Baron he has been widely ostracized from team luncheons and movie rental nights. That's what ya get for lying just to make friends, Jo'NET DINGLEBERRY the IVth-- that is Wafer's real name.

Show what you can do, McBob! DOMINATE! Indiana style!
