Huh?? Ariza's playing like crap. No ballhandling whatsoever, bad shots, D is not good either. Grabbing Granger's arm and looking at the ref like "Gimme that foul!!!". Get Budinger in there. Ariza is simply playing bad at the moment.
Martin doesn't look right yet, the dude isn't even trying to create contact or shoot for that matter, Ariza has lost his freaking mind and Brooks' shot isn't very good tonight.
Better? When? When he grabbed Granger as he blew by him? Trevor has been awful nearly the entire season. DD
This is Trevor's ring speaking: If he was garbage then why did he play such a pivotal role on the champion LA Lakers? If it wasnt for Trevor I do not think the Lakers would have been as successful as they were last year.
They would have won with a ton of different people playing in his spot. You know Jack Haley has a couple of rings too. Trevor had a decent run....but he has been worse than barbacoa puke this year. Can't dribble, can't stay in front of his man, can't shoot. Sorry, we WAAAAAAY....overpaid for him. DD
Trevor is the scapegoat. People simply blame the guy for every mistake the team makes. It's not like any one else is playing defense on this team, yet Trevor is the one guy playing like garbage? Lol at Trevor being a Garbage/awful/terrible player. I know guys like Kobe and the rest of the Lakers team/fanbase would disagree with that. The thing is, some of you thought he was going to be more than he is. Your disappointed.
MY POINT BEING, he is not garbage, he is having a rough game. Where was all the hate last week. He is coming off the flu as well, give the man a break.
this game is boring, we never had a chance after the fisrt qurter, i am dissapointed in all our starters, where was k-brick? brooks? brickriza? are team sucks still, we are no where near contender status if with a healthy yao, we need to get rid of ariza, hayes, jeffries, and brooks
Yes a rough game....one of fricken MANY this year. Look at his stats, he is Rafer like in his shooting. He is garbage...ok, not garbage, a 2nd string player....20mpg tops. Which, BTW, in case you were wondering, is what he was LAST year with the Lakers. DD
Kobe and the Lakers loved him so much they let him go. Phil Jackson even said Ron Artest is a 30mpg player, Trevor is not. We overpaid for the guy....not many 24 year old players suddenly learn how to dribble. What irks me is 4 more years of his crappy play. DD
I have said this before and i'll keep saying it...Ariza needs to study game tape of Marion with the Suns. Phx never set up plays for the guy but he would get his by being their garbage man. Ariza could be our Marion if he just chilled with trying create junk.
