    Yeah I agree, just because some girl doesnt get the attention of him he is a cancer now?
    He didnt played like he usually plays because he was injured, and because Kevin McHale didnt use him right.

    Martin's job is to score, he's not here to guard the best player or make plays for everyone else. In a way, he's the one guy who can have problems with everyone else and still raise up the team's play, because any points he makes helps our team win regardless.

    More importantly if he starts jacking up shots and starts shooting 10% from the field then the coach can bench him and he can mope around all day, simple as that. As an expiring contract, he's still valuable to us while if he plays poorly, he can kiss his next contract goodbye. So we're in a win-win situation with Kmart, while he has to work his butt off to ensure his next payday.

    Dude was legitimately hurt last year. This is a fresh start with a new team. He'll either be rejuvenated as the team vet/captain or driven by his contract year.
    *cue bass beat*
    He'll be runnin and gunnin, not poppin and floppin.
    Gonna watch him go to work, not ride that bench with a smirk.
    Like a silent assassin.... 30 points without noticin'
    He's a freestyler on offense, he got hustle n flowww,
    And like a ninja on defense, it's like where did he goooooo?

    no. but if he thinks he's the greatest, most unselfish basketball player the way that melo thinks of himself, then yes.
