This, exactly. JVG's strategy was conducive to having stars and B- veterans.
The Lakers should have kept both. The team was dysfunctional, but it's just not possible to trade a player like Shaq and get fair value in...
Yes. Many players could step in and fill the same role. Guys like Bowen are fungible. They just aren't noticed when they play on crappy teams.
Only one of those pitchers has a good resume. And he's probably in decline. Sorry, no dice.
This is a terrible post. Durant scored 25+ points a game. He had plenty of shots. Augustin was sensational most of last year.
Good for Yao. There's nothing wrong with hard work. Yao's not asking the others to do anything he isn't doing himself. Their performance...
Van Gundy is an excellent commentator. I like that most of his jokes are basketball related, too - as opposed to, say, cookies.
Except for the fact that Jimmy Jackson thought he was still a star, and Battier doesn't. IMHO, Jackson shot himself into becoming a liability...
Since when did Francis become part of a "Big 3?" I don't see a Big 3. I see a Big 2. Francis isn't even in the same stratosphere as Yao and...
I know. I'm one of those who believes that Steve probably has enough left in the tank to be an effective weapon. But what on earth makes anyone...
This, precisely. I've long maintained that a role player's value sharply declined the second he starts buying his own press clippings. We've...
If Francis can be a distributor who is satisfied being a distant 3rd option, he can start. I have trouble he can accomodate himself with this...
Yes, Rafer stinks. But that's more of an argument against Rafer in general than an argument in favor of some sort of "hot/cold" subbing issue...
This thread is misguided. (1) It's far too premature to decide that any particular player's performance is so poor that it's time to replace...
I love statistical analysis, but we're still at the point where individual opponents are going to influence the numbers too much. The Rockets...
Also, note: I'm not a particular fan of Derek Fisher. I chose his name primarily because he was the PG during the Kobe/Shaq dynasty.
Rafer is prone to incredible lapses of judgment. His shooting can be a problem, but he also goes mental at the wrong times. Not precisely...
Nah. The 25 man post-season roster of the Boston Red Sox (plus Tim Wakefield) is the "best" in Boston. Brady is somewhere after Eric...
I think this is a very good question, but not the right time to ask it. The immediate answer, of course, is that Houston's PG situation is a...
Wade was a bad GM in Philly and he will continue to be a bad GM in Houston. Now we have tangible proof.
