I'm not convinced based on 7 minute sample that he is completely useless. He has averaged over 10 rebounds per 36 consistently before a small sample last season. I would like to see more of him and find it strange that Kidd rarely plays him even when a game is out of reach. I have no idea why he didn't see the court in that Clippers game.
A lot? No, and I didn't say that. "Some" is what I said, I think.
And the rest of this is pretty much exactly my point.
If you think Holmes has something, then you have to acknowledge that the coach must not think simply adding size and rebounding is the cure for every issue they have right now, because he's consciously not using his second best "traditional" center, right?
Either way, I just find it funny that fewer than 10 games in the entire board is debating which center to trade for when there's one on the roster we've barely seen so far.
