    how many years has he been riding the king's dicks now, dressed in street clothes???

    has he ever even been on their active roster?

    if the kings win the championship, would he seriously consider himself an nba champion?

    why the hell is this loser the first one on the court slapping high fives and cheering like a woman??

    the sight of him makes me cringe.

    anyone remember jack haley when he was playing for the bulls?

    he was the first one off the court too...

    but anyways... i think cleaves is just unlucky that he's on the kings.. he could be playing on some other team...

    didn't they try to trade him earlier this year.. but he failed the physical?

    Yes. Cleaves was traded to the Cavaliers for Jumaine Jones, but the trade was rescinded when he failed the physical.

    And, don't get get on rocketfat too much for his Cleaves hatred; I'm a diehard Kings fan, and I can't stand him either.

    good to hear that you guys don't consider him an "emotional leader" slim....and, correct me if i'm wrong, but, i'm under the impression that this guy could give a rat's ass about playing basketball, and would rather cheerlead and ride these guys' jocks than suit it up on a different team.

    Reminds me of Darrell Armstrong when he was with the Magic during the 95 Rockets-Magic series. Can still remember the clip on Double Clutch where he was screaming at Nick the Brick to take his time at the free throw line. At least Armstrong is a pretty recognized player now.

    Cleaves was a great collegiate player at MSU and led them to the final four twice coming up with one championship in the process. I believe he suffered a knee injury in a large portion of his career but was originally thought of as the future point guard of the Kings, until Mike Bibby came in and established himself as a starter. Ever since then, he's been stuck on the bench, probably for reasons that haven't been made public yet. All I know is that he's rumored to have one of the worst shots in the game, and is small for his size without any adequate speed or quick hands to make up for it.

    Lol. What does that mean?

    I think if Cleaves was not doing the things he's being criticized here for, people would say he's a malcontent and a locker-room cancer who doesn't even have the decency to support his teammates on the floor. It doesn't seem to me like he can win.

    Sure it's different, Madsen plays. Well, he gets time on the court, at least.
