We've been over this a few times , but since the Warriors are in town and Mike Fine has a new article on the subject, here's the latest from Patrick O'Bryant: Then again, O’Bryant would like to have the opportunity to do anything against any team. He’s not getting any playing time and, yes, he would like to play a larger role with his new club. “Definitely, and it’s not even because of Golden State,”...

A fanpost I thought was worth discussion on the front page - Jeff So I've already posted in the Patrick O'Bryant thread about this more than a few times. I'm posting this mainly to simplify why I think O'Bryant's potential isn't translating into solid contributions on the floor yet and hopefully will cover some of the things I feel like Jeff missed in his post. Reasons why Pat's not getting more burn:...

Someone should email this YouTube clip of Tyson Chandler to our own Patrick O'Bryant. Chander throws down a lot of alley oop dunks lobbed by Chris Paul. O'Bryant and Rondo can work this too, and give us a new wrinkle in our offensive repetoire. Most defenses will be focused on KG, Pierce, and Ray, so we should be able to sneak this play in a few times a game. I can see Rajon and O'Bryant working this....

A 7-foot center leaves a Bay Area team to join the Celtics after being called either lazy or unmotivated. That is what happened in 1980, when the Celtics acquired Robert Parish from the Warriors, and again this year as Patrick O'Bryant joined the Celtics as a free agent.

Herald Ray Allen, son deal with juvenile diabetes A knee-jerk reaction for Tony Allen FL's Take: If Tony can finally break out, it would be huge for the team. This season, the team's success doesn't rest on the 2 stars but on the role players like Tony, Patrick O'Bryant, Darius Miles and the rookies.

Going into camp the questions on most people's minds were if Tony Allen could step up his game, if Patrick O'Bryant was really a bust or could he be a sound back up for Perk, what Miles could give the team, and if the team would have the motivation this season since they won the championship. So far, the answers coming out of camp are very positive. Last season, Tony had trouble coming back from his...
