Sully sucked the most. Crowder was most disappointing, because he's much, much better than he played. He was hurt by injuries, though. Sully is just a 6'9" bag of lard.

Crowder was injured and Sully is fat and a bad match up vs Atlanta.
The only one player who disappointed me was Turner. He played well the entire series.
BUT I had bigger expectation from him, specially after Atlanta defend on IT.
Turner love big moments and I thought he would kill Atlanta for a couple of games at least.
That didn't happen, I'm still wondering why. That's not the Evan Turner we know of.

Sully ...overall readiness to be an NBA player for the long run ..fail......he should have been lean and at his best ......instead he appeared to be heavier than ever ....zero lift.  Sully was not nursing injuries as in past seasons .

He just ate his way out of a big pay check



KO........way too soft to be an NBA player

Sullinger by far, hopefully, this is the last we will ever see him wear the green.   I think he should replace    Adam Richman in Man vs. Food.

I mean, Crowder was obviously hurting so he falls out of this conversation for me. Kelly has shown once again his soft side, the amount of rust he gets after being out for a game or two is staggering.

Sully wins this one by a landslide, no competition, hands down. Tee worst part is that a month ago we beat the GSW and he was spectacular, i really thought he turned the script and started to play with consistency. Not only has he lost his job in the middle of the playoffs, but he completely fell out of rotation, being given mercy minutes by CBS. And from an eye test, it seems that he gained 20 lbs in the last month, he is just unfit to play in the NBA. a couple of days ago, i saw some Paul Pierce highlights and I saw Sully in his rookie season, at time when his weight and conditioning was questioned, this sully has at least 40 lbs on the rookie.

It is getting to the point where he has more potential as a Michelin Man, than a pro-basketball player.

Perhaps a before model?

Zeller should be sitting beside Sully in the Taxi on the way out of town

Most of you were praising Sully the entire season. I agree he had a good (contract) season.
Now you all throw him under the bus for 1 bad match up playoff from him.

As far as I'm concerned, I gave Sully his last chance last summer and he didn't respond. That was it. I moved on. This season never changed my mind and vs Atlanta I didn't expect him to do anything, expect grabbing defensive rebounds.

So, how did someone who make you hope for 4 years he will lose weight, somehow still manage to disappoint you?

I have always been a harsh critic  of him but I wanted to team to do well.   I have always thought that he was fool's gold but I hate being right on this one.   I am ready to move on and see the end of the Sullinger era.

Zeller played well last night but really did not have much of chance.

Crowder absolutely killed us. The fact that he said he was only 75% healthy p---ed me off to no end. No place for that.

No place for what?

Playing through injury?

Struggling due to it?

Or talking about it after the series?

He did have a good season, that's why we praised him. I'd still pay him $10m/yr on a 3 year deal. He's a great rebounder and has come on leaps and bounds as a defender. It doesn't look like he will develop into an offensive force like some of us hoped but he's easily rotation material. It would be good if he could lose more weight as it would increase his ceiling but based off of this season's production he is worth $10m/yr.

However I see another team topping that offer and I think that's why he walks.It's easy to see a team pay $15m/yr for him, he has the potential to be much better in a year or two. Maybe he needs a change of scenery to realise the need for that improvement

Sully by far but in the same breath was predictable. The league is going with more versatile, faster, better shooting players and fat boy doesn't fit in any of those.
