Jason Thompson... Learn to use your left hand

[FakeInjury]

hes tall enough for any position. the question is how small can he play...I have seen duncan play the one, and KG and Dirk. Im not comparing them to Jason, I just want to know if he can dribblewell. If he can, then I dont care what position he plays, hes should be on the court. But if he can't, that means his game is dimensional and he should be inserted in the game in spells at a certain position. KG started his carreer at the 3, Now hes a 5. Lebron was a 2, now hes a 4. I'm exaggerating only a little.

what are you talking about? Seriously? Duncans never played the one and lebrons never played the 4. In certain situations, yeah lebron can play the 4 but its not gonna be a position they tell him to play on a consistent basis.

Jason is a 4. He's just gotta put on some size. He's still growing into that 4 position with his guard skills. I think the combination, when he puts on that size, of his guard skills and big man skills is gonna be a great asset to this team

I think you have let his performance during Training camp and pre-season dictate if he starts and how much he plays. Based on what I have seen, I think he is already our best offensive option at PF. If Moore starts, I think it will likely because of defense. It is going to take JT some time to learn the ins and outs of NBA defense, not to mention dealing with the rookie treatment from the refs.

As for Hawes, I don't think he would have been played as sparingly last season if not for the injury. Hopefully, we will get a chance to see more of what he can do for the Kings this season.

I disagree, Status among players and coaching staff should dictate PT. Najara is a prime example...how else does one explain his success in the NBA. He straight up and down proved himself every step of the way. Thompson is doing well proving himself. But he has a long way to go before i would suggest trusting him with the wins and the losses.

I saw duncan bring the ball from one end of the floor across the right halfcourt line and then initiated the offense for the SAS. (not a consistent thing) Im just saying, Duncan CAN do it, and he doesn't freak out.

And Lebron plays the 4 for the Olympic squad, and for cleveland.
