Only a matter of time. This is why we play in the greatest league ever assembled.
I think I was the only one that looked at that trade and thought “Well I guess this kind of makes sense.” I am like Batman understanding the madness of Joker’s plans. Traces of cotton candy left at the crime scene…? QUICKLY ROBIN, TO THE ABANDONED CARNIVAL
Depth move, quality for quantity. He got back four solid fantasy players for one super good one. (It’s just too bad that VSlash also traded away two solid fantasy players as well.)
Aldridge and West are very good fantasy players, both better than the second best player VSlash gave up. You could argue that all four guys he got were better than Bosh. That makes it a legitimate trade.
Or is it that I am so bad at trades myself that I cannot see the horror of his ways? I’ll never know.
Yeah, he’s no doubt the best performer on the Lakers. When watching the games and reading the box score all lead to the same conclusion, it’s a pretty safe bet it’s right. NO losing Paul would be bad, but I don’t think Phoenix losing Nash would be near the same league. Dragic and Hedo can handle the ball well enough to keep the team afloat.
MVP of the OKC Supersonics is Westbrook. In another 70 games, it’ll probably end up being Durant though.
Other than Kobe’s PPG, I don’t even think he’s the 2nd most valuable player on the team right now (that’ll change if that knee gets better). Although I think the whole point of that Dwyer article was to spite Kobe.
Kobe probably has the Randy Moss factor going on: when one player has diminished physical ability, but still has enough and their history of dominance is enough to scare teams to overcommitting which makes it easier for everyone else, including Pau.
To be fair to Kobe, he’s recognized his dimished physical ability and has made himself a better player in other aspects of the game. Randy’s too busy feeding his dogs food from Italian restaurants to better himself as a player.
You guys are fucking nuts. I would take Kobe over Gasol any day of the week.
Take Kobe off the team and try to see if Gasol can lead them. He can get better stats than Kobe, but the team will be in disarray when shit starts going south. Artest starts jacking up wild 3’s, people stop playing team ball and the team will just implode.
Say hello to 44-38 and a first round exit in the playoffs.
LOL @ Sonics fan insulting another basketball franchise. Tomorrow, I am going to turn on the television and watch NBA basketball being played in my city. Tomorrow, you are going to cry into your pillow about Clay Bennett.
LOL @ randomly insulting the Raptors. Someone is mad. Is that someone you? Like it means anything anymore to say something about the Raptors that Raptors fans themselves haven’t already said a thousand times before and better.
LOL @ bringing up Jordan for no reason. When you look up who the head coach was for both those Bulls teams and those Lakers teams…do you see Micheal Jordan’s name or Kobe Bryant’s name? Or do you see…like…you know…someone else’s name?
I don’t think a Sonics fan can make fun of how shitty the Raptors organization is doing, even though they are LOL worthy. It just doesn’t work that way.
I can though, since Pau Gasol is the best European basketball player and Colangelo can’t get him.
LOLRAPTORS.
PS - My Asian buddy Clint, check out my awesome Asian counter offer.
It was really shitty of Riley to waive Stackhouse in order to sign Dampier. Dwyane is struggling and playing with an injured wrist. Why the fuck would you cut a wing player, especially with Miller a month away from playing? We NEED wing players dammit.
I don’t give a fuck how good Jamaal’s jokes are on the bench, he sucks and is taking up space.
