Vitor Faverani Upside

[moiso]

Angry Faverani isn't playing more. Useful player and the only big man with real size on the team.

Is Angry Faverani one of the guys we just signed on a 10 day contract?  Vitor's cousin?

I assumed Faverani would have a much bigger roll than he has.  He looked promising in the preseason.  He has pretty nice skills and tools.  He kind of looks like he lacks focus at times though.

For all the supposed Celtics reporters we have, writing nearly identical articles, none of them seems to ask an interesting question--such as, what does Vitor need to improve upon to see playing time?

Ooooh...that stung!

I think Vitor has been caught up in a numbers game. With a team that also has Sully, Humph, Kelly and Bass its tough to play everyone. There are 96 minutes at the 4 and 5 spot so that gets each of them 24min not to mention Joel Anthony joining the team. While his play has 90% to do with it Humphries as gone from 12mpg in Nov to 20 in dec to now 26 in Jan I also think part of this is DA wanting to make sure he is showcased for any potential trade.

I expect at least Bass or Humphries to be moved at the deadline and Vitor to then get back to his Nov 16mpg.

Ha! Would that be so hard a question?

(BTW, I'd guess the answer would be team defense.)

Communication skills.

Yeah I'm surprised he doesn't get 10-14 MPG as the backup C.

Oh well.

definitely not what we hoped for so far.

He's what...5th in the C's bigs line?

Nothing against Sully, Humphries, KO, or Bass, but I long for the day when an offensively AND defensively legit 7-footer regularly roams the paint for the Cs.

I struggle to think who the last guy who fits this description was before we got Garnett.

[SHAQATTACK]

I thought he'd play more myself .

I'm not that smart but is it defensive rotation issues the reason he isn't playing?

[bleedGREENdon]

Maybe he would be winning us games like in the beginning of the season. Once we stopped playing fav we started losing more .

Tank a paloozaaaaa
