I can see this. At first I kinda hated him and this was even before his NBA career but after watching him play I overlook the fact he wants to be apart of Bone Thugs desperately.

"Quick note on Varejao: He finished with eight points, 10 rebounds, one steal and one block in 36 minutes but was Cleveland's second-best player and made at least eight fantastic energy/defensive/intangible plays in the second half. This is why I don't trust the statistical revolution in basketball yet. Get a tape of the second half and find me a way to measure what Varejao did and I'm happy to jump aboard. We are not there yet."

Really?
What do you like about him? I've probably watched him more than anyone else on this board and I can tell you he should be a backup.
He can't hit a medium range J consistently, he's a fair to middling 3 point shooter and he's not a very good free throw shooter either.
He doesn't really make his teammates better (The Rockets offense has been much better since he left) and he's on the wrong side of 30.
Try and convince me.
He's also the best in the league at stabbing people with broken bottles
pretty much
im of the school of thought that no nba team can do shit without an adequate point guard, and for the most part the teams he starts on have been pretty good. sure hes not ideal and not even close to top ten or even fifteen but there are a handful of teams he would be a legit upgrade for
this dude was a fuckin 3 point chucker. really ugly shot, it was either a swish, a fluke bank, but majority of the time is was just a huge brick. good shooters when they miss, their shot usually goes in and out or back rim or front rim, antoine walker would clang it off the side rim havin it smash the backbaord below rim level and shit. ive seen this guy hit bottom rim multiple times. his threepoint was like a shaq free throw.
