Why Rudy Gay is not in CLUTCHCITY: My theory

Unless there is something you would like to tell the class, "We" have never played in an NBA playoff game.

Mr. Van Gundy came out with a plan that surprised the Mavericks, but was ultimately outcoached, and his team outplayed to the tune of the worst game seven loss in NBA history.

Shane Battier is just like his new head coach - adequate and uninspiring.

 

Thats stupid.

 

Why don't you say that to the millions of fans around the world that refer to their team as "we"

 

you guys defending this move are on some crazy stuff now. memphis wasn't supposed to win a playoff game, he was part of a 49 and 50 win team. the rockets won a playoff game against the lakers on a 45 win team and I'm sure a lot of you would take gasol over francis.

 

Wow! This makes me want to sign up for the NBA League Pass right away...

 

Exactly! Well, let's see how CD's "master plan" turns out. If things don't work out, the worst that could happen is that they wind up in the 2007 NBA lotto where I'm sure they'll have a chance to trade their pick for another "solid veteran player".

 

Thomas only does anything under 2 conditions:

1. He's on a contract year
2. He plays for the Suns, who fit his perimeter-oriented game to a T

If the Rockets sign Tim Thomas they will get the same guy so unmotivated that the Bulls felt it necessary to eat the entire $14+ million on his contract without getting ANYTHING out of him.

 

The Heat also has a guy that can get to the rim at well. Like everyone else has been harping about we don't have that quickness/athleticism. All the top teams in the league have guys that do.

 

ok.... if you want clutch so much, why dont you trade gay down and pick up super clutch jjredick, m.williams, and then send stro somewhere for a battier-esque player, just because gay hasnt proved himself clutch yet doesnt mean we have to get raped on a trade

 

You lose all your credibility by suggesting Tim Thomas who never had heart or clutch in the Bucks, the Knicks and the Bulls. Steve Nash and the Phoenix system makes everyone looks good if that person can at least shoot the ball.

And you suggest Gay is not clutch and suggest Rox take Tim Thomas who has no heart at all. Woow, what a joke!

 

Can I have some of the acid you've been dipping?

 

I saw this game, and it was one of the games that convinced me that Gay might be the most overrated player in college basketball. Marquette has about 1/10th the talent of UConn and Gay still got burned with all the shot blockers behind him (not that it mattered with Novak, who was nailing J's left and right, but that makes Gay look worse as he KNEW jumpers were coming).

Im really starting to warm up to the Battier trade, and Im really beginning to wonder if Gay was going to become the next Joe Forte.

 

you people are dumb!! stop finding excuses..im not saying gay is going to be great. but u do have to evaluate his athletic ability. and lets say he is leaps beyond battier in that department.. his atheltic ability alone can get him 10 pts 5 rebs at worst... JUST LOOK AT AMARE... hmm he is probably the best player of that draft (other htan yao debatable since amare got hurt last season) but lets not forget AMARE slipped to 9th!!!! 9th!!!

 

oh on another note. .we all know Jerry West is way better on evaluating talent than JVG or CD ever will be.. so if West is raving so much about Gay i believe him.... atleast definately over Van Dumb Ass and stupid ass CD

 

how old is cd? my theory is he's too old to stay up too late that he wanted to get it it done and over with by accepting the first deal which comes to him.. he didn't even wait until we made a pick and entertained other offers or have memphis give hime a better deal..
