Gradnigo

[CajunCanaille]

Did anyone notice that Gradnigo is just flat out lazy? This guy doesn't move, doesn't make his cuts, doesn't follow instructions, gives up too easy, and is just flat out lazy! He is our best player if he wants to be.

I did notice this mostly in the first half of the game last night. Believe it or not we were trying to run an offense but Grad was hunched over in the corner with his hands on his knees like 5 times. This is in the first half. If your that much out of shape you need to tell coach and work on your cardio. It got so bad at one point Lee took a timeout and went straight to Grad and asked him what he was doing. He picked it up in the second half, I'll give him that. But I have noticed this year, for him to be one of our best players, there doesn't seem to be much passion there. I know it's been a tough season but standing in the corner hunched over while the rest of your teammates are trying to score is not fair to the team. Just my observation.

Why did the title of my thread change? What was so bad about "Gradnigo Flat Out Lazy"

I would understand that if there was something wrong with the origional title!

For those that don't read too well, Gradnigo does have a medical issue, which causes what some think is being out of shape.

Really?? What kind of medical condition? I doubt the the thread starter knew of such thing or that there was any maliciousness in his post other than pointing out the assumed work ethic of the player. No problems with changing the title in that case.

I did attend the "School for Kids Who Don't Read Good", but I guess it didn't take and I need to learn how to read gooder. FYI: There is a difference between being able to read and finding an article about a medical condition on a certain player.

What is this medical issue? And how did it effect him so much in the first half than in the second half? I know he had a staph infection but from my understanding it has gone away. I could be wrong I'm no dr. Nonetheless I noticed a considerable lack of effort on Grad's part in the first half of the game and commented on it.

If his "medical condition" does still exist then he should not be playing. He should tell his coach that he can't give the 100% necessary and would rather sit out. But I don't think that he is still suffering from any medical problems. He had a staff infection at the beginning of the season and from what I understand it is gone. I think he just has a case of laziness.

But that is just first half laziness. Second half he is a top 3 player on the team right? ;-)

Also T. Johnson is getting better with every minute he plays.

He was and may still be the leading rebounder on the team (havent checked in a week or so), and he wasnt playing all that much. His extra playing time well earned and deserved.
