2146920, The Tobias Harris Train is pulling away from the station.....

Who's coming on?

I've road with Tobias since I've first seen him play.

Said he was better than Harrison too.

He's about to be a steal of that trade and a cornerstone of the Magic's future.

Super Guinn-tendo throw a stack of his Upperdeck trading cards into Johnny 5 and let me know if he's nerd friendly.
2146925, lol!

tell me this dude did not just add Tobias Harris to his list of "internet topics that go platinum with Basaglia." although I don't see an angle here.

anyway, hope he keeps it up. I was just happy to find out C.J. Watson was earning NBA minutes last season.
2146937, No agenda here. Just love the way he plays.

2146929, He's been KILLING it since he got traded to Orlando.

I didn't want bring it up and be annoying, but he really has been playing excellent since the trade. He could be an All-Star in a few years.

I was aight on him in hs.
aight on him @ UT though they made him seem like the second coming.
He got no tick in Mil last year, and sucked when I saw him against the Knicks early this year.

he's always been talked about like he was *that* good, ever since HS.

But once I seented him in Orlando against the rockets? sheeeeeiiit.
son can PLAY.

I'm a fan.
2146934, yes!

orlando is super into metrics now, so anyone they acquire will probably be nerd-friendly. and harris is: effective scorer (especially in orlando), makes threes, high rebounding rate. pretty obvious he should have been playing more in milwaukee.

between him and vucevic, orlando has recently been morey-esque in plucking away underused young guys.
2146941, Both Nicholson and O'Quinn are quality young efficient PFs too. Love both.

2147109, Nicholson been wack lately, but we got a nice core

Metrics deez.

He's looking really good. Not sure why he wasn't getting run in Milwaukee. They could have had a helluva young frontcourt in Sanders, Ilyasova and Harris.
2146947, yea they don't miss redick one bit. might end up as a steal

getting him for jj

Tobias Harris had a big night Tuesday for the Orlando Magic. It’s a night in which he should have grabbed all the headlines.

Of course, it was also the night the Los Angeles Lakers came to town and brought back former Magic superstar Dwight Howard, who demonstrated how much he meant to the Magic franchise.

It was the highly publicized Howard return to Orlando. He had a season-high 39-points and tied his NBA record of 39 free-throw attempts. But Harris unfortunately took a back seat to Howard’s return to the place where he logged eight NBA seasons.

Harris had 17 points and a career high 15 rebounds. For the season, he is averaging 7.7 points and 3.4 rebounds a game but certainly turned up his game seven notches against the Lakers. He continually brings up his production since coming from the Milwaukee Bucks in the J.J. Redick deal.

Harris was 7-of-7 from the floor, 3-of-5 in triples against the Lakers, grabbed 15 rebounds and had three blocks. He didn’t have a turnover and has only had one turnover the past two games. In Sundays’ 99-91 win over the Philadelphia 76ers, he was 7-of-16 from the floor and had 15 points plus seven rebounds.

Since he came to Orlando, Harris is averaging 15.6 points, 7.4 points and 1.3 blocks per game. He’s also been hitting around 50 percent of his shots for the Magic.

The Magic don’t have Howard anymore, but they do have Harris. The way he has played lately, the Magic realizes a steal they got in the Redick trade

2147087, He's got those steady fundamentals.
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Thu Mar-14-13 10:32 AM
Getting stronger, and learning where to find his spots to be effective.

2155344, Solid uppage
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Sat Mar-30-13 05:01 PM
He's gunning his ass off right now too. And I can't blame him. Who else is gonna shoot? And if you ain't scoring people will forget about you.
2155358, Harkless Better
Posted by RexLongfellow, Sat Mar-30-13 05:59 PM
But yeah, I'll root for Harris because he's from NY
I usually root for local cats from the NY/NJ area

He's WAY BIGGER than I thought he was though...I didn't know he had that much size.
2155507, Thats why they're the Bucks

Can't let him walk now
2399693, He's on that Paul Milsap trajectory
Posted by FILF, Mon Dec-15-14 03:17 AM
But he's kinda like the Philly version of Thad Young right now.
2718053, stalled on the tracks
