Al Jefferson......

[Slam]

Is fucking awesome.

Did anyone know he was going to be this good? 15th pick, out of HS. Dang.

Kid has got it all IMO.

The new age Tim Duncan.

Yes, I said it.

[tamburello]

I felt exactly like you after seeing his monstrous 36 point, 22 rebound, 4 assist, 4 steal, 2 block performance against Houston.

It's hard to say for me, but it's really Tim Duncan-wise statsline.

The KG trade wasnt so bad....Al Jefferson is legit. The Gasol trade was far worse.....Memphis didnt get anything close to an all-star back. Marc Gasol is the best thing and he is medicore.

I look at Jefferson in a different way than Timmy D. They're both extra smooth and are naturals at what they do, but Timmy is more effortless in his approach.. he just does his job and at the end of the game you go, "Damn this guy just dropped 35/15 on them". Jefferson, you're more like, "Damn this guy is good.. holy shit he just dropped 35/15 on them!"


Same skills, same effect, but different approaches. I'd take both in a heartbeat ;)

big al was decent on the celtics he just got a lot better

You think an Allen, Pierce, and Al big 3 could have been as sucsessful as what they have with Garnett?

Sometimes I wonder if they could. Big Al is a beast.

I totally think that is a possibility that they could have been successful

yeah, then factor in all the other guys they traded too. Would Boston really have been that much worse?

[SWedd523]

Without Pierce there's no KG. Without KG there's no Allen. Things would have been MUCH different if Boston kept Jefferson

[WarioVsMooChicken]

Allen came before KG...

[SWedd523]

Allen came before KG...
Then reverse Allen and KG in my above statement

[amour217]

Allen came before KG...

That's what she said

Too bad for Al missing the rest of the year, hes a good kid, plus he could have helped us by beating playoff-type teams we needed beaten...double whammy

[tamburello]

Timberwolves were one of the best of 2009, it's very unfortunate for them to lose Jefferson while he was playing great. Hopefully it wouldn't be chronical.

Well, its a torn ACL, so not like a chrnic knee or anything...just leave it to McHale to ruin them by the time Al gets back

I know but it's the most important ligament of knee. ACL injuries are always very dangerous, I'm actually worried about that.

Yeah I'm a medical transcriptionist and I type rehab reports on just about everything in the body and this injury is not joke :(..he's going to have to do a lot of work.

Oh I know its bad, I had a teammate in football who got one and never played another down...I'm just saying its not common enough to be chronic...
