Hasheem Thabeet

[joneboy2000]

Sorry if this does not deserve an own thread, but i'm struggling...

What plays do you guys suggest for Thabeet? I know he can be a beast on the defensive end but i really cant get any offense out of him...

Re: Hasheem Thabeet

of coruse u can cheese the game if u want to have him score for you. have him dunk on someoen or something

Re: Hasheem Thabeet

Maybe pick and roll so he can go to the basket. You shouldn't really be calling plays for him, though. It's a waste of a possession.

Re: Hasheem Thabeet

Pick and pop game baby! You could always develop him to be a dangerous post player if you put in work.

Thabeet is one of the worst off players in the game why would you want to score with him but I would get some garbage points of off rebounds and off of drives by your guards

Pick and pop with Thabeet? I feel like that would be a slow and painful process.

To the OP, like they are saying, score with quick drop downs off drives, or put backs. Thabeet will never be a high scorer but he can contribute huge on D. Think of him like today's Dikembe Mutombo. However, if you get to where you can score with Thabeet, get a post player with some game and you will be lights out.

Re: Hasheem Thabeet

Thanks for the replys, i just wanna get some offense out of him...

Should i develop his lowpost game?

E: Does anyone else think that he would be a good fit with the Raptors? If so what would be an fair trade to get him from Houston?

In my rosters,Alabi is a more viable development as far as defense and offense potential.Thabeet is a better value down the road where you can release him and clear cap space if your patient enough.Ajinca is a keeper who has good mid range jumper as a big man but weak inside.So....if you can pull off a trade(w/o being tempted to overide).Try getting Chuck Hayes or Marcus Cousin a big body w/decent strength ratings to bang the post(no pun intended)....but then again...Im curious are you considering moving Barganni to PF and Looking for a Center to open up the shooters?In that case move one of Small Forwards either A.Johnson(Cap Space) or Kleiza( for Thabeet and a future 2nd rounder.Since you can have Weems start and Derozan can play either SF and/or SG.

you'd have better luck shooting 3s with Shaq

Re: Hasheem Thabeet

Current Knicks chise I started today :

PG - CP3
SG - Fields
SF - Melo
PF - Amare
C - Thabeet

Bench

T. Douglas
Jordan Crawford
Shawne Williams
R.Turiaf
Sheldon Williams
B. Walker
A.Tolliver

using KG's roster.

He's really good defensively but his offense is a big no-no... set up plays for him to screen other 1-4 position players for shots.. not for him to score unless you use your training camp points on him or send him to practice every week to develop.

Yeah, im going to start Bargnani at 4.

In that case move one of Small Forwards either A.Johnson(Cap Space) or Kleiza( for Thabeet and a future 2nd rounder.Since you can have Weems start and Derozan can play either SF and/or SG.

A. Johnson is an pf, yes? I'll try to package him with some scrub to get Thabeet.

The fact that there is a thread titled Hasheem Thabeet on here has me laughing my *** off here in my office.

Re: Hasheem Thabeet

If you could set up standing dunk plays for him, you could probably cheese people out online, but if you play realistically, he shouldn't be doing anything apart from being a garbage man.
