Then claimed that he would never be more than a 3rd string center in the NBA all up until last season........this ****ing gabepizza guy is unbelievable with his level of trolling.
It's truly astonishing.
1st off I never said those things.
2nd it's one regular season NBA game, lets see Pek get selected to an All-star game or an all-NBA team, than we can compare him to Horford or Chandler.

Mate, I don't think you are a troll like EL claims, but you put too much emphasis on stats and accolades. I know it sounds stupid, but sometimes the eyetest can be the most relevant part, I watched Tyson Chandler live in Turkey in 2010, and even tough I can see that he has improved, he isn't remotely as good basketball player as Pekovic. He is 30 year old center that hasn't developed any kind of true post game, he is a great fit for a contending team as he goes straight for the dunk when open and can catch lob passes and of course play great defense.

There was literally no shot on the court and when they finally passed to zaza Pekovic displayed absolute domination, forcing him clear to the out of bounds line. There was nothing for the Hawk to do but hand the ball to the ref. He's displaying defense clear to the perimeter at last!! And did it perfectly too. Pekovic looked just like a champion heavyweight boxer with his opponent on the ropes.
One of the best defensive sequences I've seen in a long time
Yeah this guy is for real

Re: Nikola Pekovic is a stud
Pek raped horford last night. Our bigs are soft as **** so I am not surprised at all. Actually I was kind of expecting it. I would love to have to hawks go get him in the offseason. He is the low post scorer that the hawks desperately need.

And the funny thing is that this guy played against Ioannis Bourousis for years in Europe and could never get the better of him. He was always played evenly or even outplayed.
gabepizza has said about 500 times in this forum that Bourousis is not even good enough to make an NBA roster. Which was the same exact thing he used to say about Pekovic. Oh, and the whole, "anyone that says differently is an insane and delusional Euro ***."

Yes let's take your word on that. Everything you post has always been proven to be true so therefore there is no reason for people to question anything you post.

Re: Nikola Pekovic is a stud
Another 20 12 game and Kaman is in the guy's rear view mirror. I wonder what the Wolves will do to keep him.
I suppose the team's collapse is being written off due to injuries. It's been interesting to note the complete skid by the Wolves since they have had a different head coach; they've gone from a great defensive club to dismal at best.
Nah. Can't be Porter, he's had such a stellar coaching record wherever he's gone: fired by the Bucks, signed on with the Pistons who immediately plunged, fired by the Suns.... now, standing in for the Wolves, he's ripped off 4 straight Losses.
But, in spite of all the obstacles, Pekovic continues to impress.

You are such a ****ing dumb ass that you can't ever shut the **** up when you should.
News flash moron, they both played in the Greek League for years. News flash idiot, there are box scores for those games.
God damn, you are dumb.

Definitely not as good as Horford or Chandler........
