It's not every day you sign a player from the D-League and they come in and become a solid bench SG like CDR. I think that CDR might be even more. Something is special about that guy.. I know he has most likely earned a contract but what do you guys think of CDR so far?

 

I'm not saying he will develop into a starting SG, I do think he has a future here though.

CDR has proven to me what i was looking for Taylor to prove to me this year: more consistent 3 ball with solid defense and an improved ability to attack the rim. CDR doesn't have the frame and ferocity that Taylor can bring but he does have a better 3 ball. He's almost at .400%

CDR has played a big role on our success lately. If he is a good team mate behind closed doors, I hope we show him how much we appreciate what he has done for the team in the off season. A 40% 3 point shooter is a great benefit to a team where a few players can't shoot the 3 worth a poo. A person that has a chip on his shoulder to prove he deserves to be in the NBA (when they have had a rough go at it) can be a very powerful force. I hope he keeps that type of motivation even after a new contract.

To be honest with you if we are down by 3 with 5 seconds to go... He is the one I want the ball going to. (with the exception of maybe Neal)

he is a good teammate.. i remember MKG (on twitter or instagram) was excited to bring him in because he was kinda MKG's mentor during his 1st year in the league.. he told him what to watch out for and how to be professional.

 

as far as who i want taking the 3 ball with 5 seconds left:

 

Neal > CDR > Toliver > Kemba > Mcbob >>>>>>>>>>> Cody > Jefferson > Haywood > Patrick Ewing >>>>>>>>>>>> Hendo

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.

      Canes vs Panthers 7pm

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.

      QB School - Bryce Young vs Bucs

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
