Wurider05 Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 I know that appears that he is a bum but my question is whether or not he has anything that our staff can build on. I know that we may not keep him but they have worked wonders before. Is there anything there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Popular Post Sothron Posted June 21, 2017 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Plumless is a bum, pure and simple. He's almost 30 and keeps getting passed around teams. And yes, I realize you can say the same about Dwight except for the age but at least Dwight is giving you something. Plumless is a disaster. When you can't even get minutes on the Hornets, well, that tells you all you need to know. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Probably 14 minutes per game? Maybe more since the Hawks appear to be aiming to lose games and they have nothing else other than Moose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP61 Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 He could be a decent but way overpaid backup at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 I can honestly say, I don't ever remember a game he's played in. Can he defend the PnR? Grab some boards? Bring some energy, take a hard foul? That's all I need from him as a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games played for his career. 14, 80, 73, 61, 32, 13. Count em up, 6 years - 492 possible games, 273 played 219 missed. Career averages 5.1/4.7. Best season 8.1/7.8. Last season, 2.4/2.1. No it doesn't look good. Edited June 21, 2017 by thecampster 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benhillboy Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 There's a glimmer of hope. He's mobile and long. I had never heard of DeMarre before he got here (15.5 PER with Utah the year before he arrived). Surely Bud will try to harken back to Plumlee's days in Milwaukee when he was efficient (16.2 PER average). I aint holding my breath but I got faith in Bud to pull some nice chunks out this particular tomato can. More so than the probability of him refining Dwight that's for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF we can get him healthy, he has a pretty big body, rolls to the rim well and rebounds ok, with some athleticism. In theory. He's also awful, so there's that. 1 minute ago, benhillboy said: There's a glimmer of hope. He's mobile and long.

His best season was in Phoenix I think. He was like a Deandre Jordan SUPER-LITE back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan is similar (on offense at least), he's just so physically imposing that he warps a defense. Plumlee just cleans up. This was about a year ago...

It is encouraging at least to see that he can make a layup on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 How many games is he going to be able to play with that recent history and as of now don't see who he is going to back up so thats pretty scary. The only true big under contract on our roster right now, for however long that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if Plumlee gets $12.5 million, Muscala's going to want at least $15 million. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin24Williams Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 He is a disaster. Actually I forgot how some aspects of trading works already. Can we try to dump him asap or do we have to wait a while before he's tradable again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
