Very true. Just trying to look at (for?) the bright side. He can't stay this spotty for the whole season, can he?

Nikita is pretty much the most physical player on our team (besides Travis). In order to not be dominated on the boards, in the post, and in loose ball situations, we need a player like Nikita to be the 4th or 5th most physical player on our team. That says something about our squad right now.
We are at least two physcial post players away from where we need to be.
Frankly, based on Nikita's play last year I'm impressed that he's even been passable this year. He's had a couple decent games, and a few more bad ones.
But if we can get 3/5, 4/6 out of him every night from good shot selection, maybe 6-8 rebounds a game, and let him set picks and play some physical defense we'd be getting more out of him than I ever imagined possible.
That's if he did any of those things to any degree of consistency...
Jesus fuckin' Christ....
Nikita is fucking terrible at basketball. Just stop already.
