by getting injured...I could be wrong, but I feel that if JO was still in the starting lineup today with KG at the 4 we would not be on this run we have been since the allstar break.

true, but we could definitely use his low post defense off the bench .

ya, but I feel at this point, Stiemsma provides pretty much what JO wouldve given us off the bench. and he has more energy

Sure did.

JO has been baggage since he was signed here.

He came up lame everytime he took a charge, and he was only getting love because he was our only Center on the team.

Danny should have seen the signs, his last season with the heat was screaming lamar odom levels of "im washed up, and finished"

Low and behold, danny saw those signs and added yet another washed up injury prone vet to the squad.

We won a grand total of 1 playoff series with JO, and we could have won it without him. He put off surgery because hes afraid of the hospital and left us with no starting center, and im glad hes gone.

nah Jermaine is still a better defender. He would take charges and block shots and is a better low post defender.

In a very weird way, you might actually be correct.

I said it before. JO was the weakest link. Nothing personal, just hate how his game aged and screwed our offense.
