Scott christopherson

Sportsnut are u saying Brett Maher 4 next season?

Clarke now coaches like he wont be sacked. Imagine not having to be credible...

it has been pretty clear for ages that he is a troll account and you all continue to feed him lmao

It all becomes clear Marcus is a perth fan stirring us all up

Paul- I couldn't work that out either. Plays him at small forward with cadee and crosswell at once lol. Mind blowing.

Clarke's assessment before he landed...

“He is a great shooter and has high basketball IQ, he has the ability to put the ball to the floor and create good opportunities for the team. Scott is a tough defender and lives in the gym, constantly trying to improve his game."

We haven't really seen him get good chances as a spot up 3 shooter, then again same applies to Weigh. Clarke just simply got it wrong. The Belarus league form should have been a massive red flag to start with, plus bringing in a young, quiet kid to this team was dangerous to say the least.

Can handle the ball but has looked awful putting it on the floor and going to the basket. Averages 0.5 assists a game so hardly creating "good opportunities".

He hasn't been a liability on the court, but if you're describing your import as "not a liability" that's a bad sign.

Clarke's desire to go with an Aussie team is honourable but he's not getting the sort of kids Goorj used to get his hands on. Weigh and DJ aren't Anstey and McKinnon.

Melbourne showed today what 2 good imports can mean for your team. The Scott and Flynn import combo outscored Christopherson 45-0.

Little point dumping him at this point, then again stunned why Daly on got 4 minutes. We really should have an eye to next year and Daly needs a string of games playing 15-20 to show what he can do.

Who's better off in his current situation anon? I'm just saying Clarke loves structure and a sophisticated system. Homicide likes freestyle and run n gun. The two just wouldn't mix. Oh and I don't like butter :)

No way Clarke could coach homicide. Not sure any club would touch him.

I feel bad for him. It's not his fault cj was sacked for him. I think his recruitment was the final nail in clarkes coffin. I'd also like to see some honesty and critical reflection and admission of mistakes from Clarke. It might win him some understanding though that horse has bolted.

Looking remotely capable in a system, of which your involvment has been longer than SC's, doesn't sound much better anyway.

Just think there is responsibility for coaches to find ways to get players involved. SC is the import, came in late, on the backlash of fan outrage, in a system that capable players evidently struggle in, and after having a reputation as a decent shooter, is not used yet, in such a way.

He certainly seems to be struggling, but will defend him against poor coaching. And do realise, as stated previously, that he doesn't bring much else.

Was supposed to be a 'Lisch' type player infact was imported after lisch beat u guys with some dagger shots a while back. CJ was terminated also. Send Clarke, Radford, crosswell & christerphon back to SEABL! I would normally have mentioned Cadee in that but nice game 2night! Thought Clarke was gonna drag Cadee when hot & was only shining light so maybe Marty finally learning to leav players on when hot. Too little too late!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was that not what Clarke said he was looking for when C.J was released- spot up shooter? Or have a mixed up the descriptions with massingale being released, because he was only a spot up shooter?

Certainly does not suit the sixers, but i also think he is a victim of the Clarke game plan, like a few others, IMO. Only partly the reason though, certainly agree he does not bring much.

No point sacking him now, IMO. Would be good to see Daly get oppurtunities at his exspense if form continues. But again, he can shoot, get him some looks FFS.

Certaintly looks out of his depth but needs open looks to be affective. Remember he came in to be a spot up shooter, supposedly.

The guy obviously has some basketball ability, like any player at the pro level should. Not going to be a star, but interested to see how he would go in a better coached system.

Personally, would keep playing him. Easy to just his crap, useless, worst import etc.( not you, other threads ).

This article was in the Geelong Advertiser today.

What are the chance of Reardon breaking in tothe 36'ers from the Rockets? Do you need a SG?

I wish him well - a great young man
