Correct me if I am wrong, but the players used to vote on MVP back in the day, correct? And Kareem may have won a chunk of those MVP's that the...
Maybe we're not signing Upshaw after all? Maybe they view Black as F/C? Maybe Sacre and Kelly are gone and we need another body at the 4/5? I...
That plays a big role. But I also think there are other factors in why he isn't considered the greatest: 1) His personality. Never one to embrace...
Interesting point about pace. I know Indiana deliberately played one of the slowest paces in the league to accommodate roy and his rim protection....
Thanks for that stat...it gives me hope! I feel like we've definitely added players that can make a difference on the W/L over the course of the...
NB4 Dish refuses to participate in this proposition. Awesome, awesome idea though. A**holes should have done this while I was in the Bay Area....
Jeezus Shaq. Just STFU already, you are making yourself look like a punk. Man I love Shaq but s*** like this Pippen incident is making me lose...
I wholeheartedly agree real. I think the estimations are low but based on the last 3 years, I've learned to temper my expectations. I don't want...
Well I guess I'm not shocked. Phil's an honest guy. He can have bad things to say about you but still respect you.
If russell is capable of playing starter minutes, randle and Clarkson somehow become starter-caliber players and Kobe and Hibbert are healthy and...
Correct me if I'm wrong but that's an old quote from Phil? Since he his last stint with us he's been nothing but complimentary of Kobe,...
I REALLY won't like that. It will bother me a lot. Though that is about 21 ppg for the next 5-6 years. Can LeBron put up 21 ppg until age 35 or...
I miss that dude. I know he was never a star role player but dude had such hustle and heart. Glad he was able to salvage some of a career and play...
Exactly. It's not just about flashiness and dunks. Kobe's patented triple ball fake fadeaway threes and jumpers are also partially due to...
Sure by no means are we a top defensive team, but hopefully we won't be among the worst? Offensively there's a lot of talent. Just curious how we...
Look we're all frustrated by the injuries but I think we're making Gary a scapegoat here. I don't think our lack of modern technology is solely...
Last year the mantra was "the lakers are scoring enough points, what they need is help on defense" So now we have Hibbert. That solves a huge...
I don't know how the win shares stat is calculated, but I agree with this analysis. I think Clarkson's number will be closer to 4, and I am hoping...
Ah agreed. I think it's safe to say that Kobe is up at the very very top of the list of elite skill + elite athleticism, though.
I don't think Clarkson is capable of being what Kobe is physically. Kobe is longer and stronger. Kobe isn't as fast in a full sprint, most likely....
