Smokey, if you mean as a Franchise player, don't bet on it. If you mean signs for the Lakers with the MCE, then you're right. But of course, he'd be pissed that someone else is called Kobe and playing just like him. Jesus. The last thing we need is to pay someone 14.5M to be our 3rd wheel. To be a spot-up shooter, with no handles, D, or post game. Tell me, really, what can Lewis do that's so special? I really really want to know. I swear to God, if this guy can win a championship, I'd like to know what makes him so special. Who do you think will win in a 5-on-5 basketball game, with Horry matched up against Rashard? EDDIE GRIFFIN matched up against Lewis? Can he drive by? No. Can he shoot over? No. If he needs a screen, hell, even Bullard can do that.
He can shoot open jumpers good and ... uh... mmm... hmm... rebound decently too I guess... sounds like he's worth the max to me.
We could have had Drexler, Barkley, and Olajuwon for their whole careers, I think they could have corralled a couple of titles in there somewhere.
Holy cow, the Second Coming and we blew it again... our front office obviously is doomed to repeat its mistakes. They never learn. They have no fundamentals!
Cat at the point? Dickerson ain't exactly been stellar and we'd still have defensive issues with Rashard rocket River
Dickerson sucks, no pun inteaded, Cat cannot play the pg, and Rashard...well, Rudy would screw Rashard
I am aware of that, I was going for understated. Those three together for there careers would have been like Bill Russell's Celtics. Hakeem by himself won a title and both Drexler and Barkley made it to the finals with less than stellar supporting casts. They should all have more rings than fingers instead of half as many between them as Quitten by himself.
He does not. Plain and simple. Lewis thinks too highly of himself. He compared his progress to Kobe Bryant's. If he could play some defense, maybe he would deserve the max.
