He hasn't quit on the Lakers.


The team is badly put together with a coach the plays away from the strength of the team. 


His "bad" year (which I heard today on the radio that they think he in playing closer to 80% because his back is still healing) is 17 points on 10 shots a game.  12 rebounds, 2.5 blocks.

Top 4.



If he got fully healthy, top 2.  Best big man in the league.

No, he should whine and cause problem somewhere else.
When you lose, the easy part is to see who gives up. Giving up is very simple. You basically take your stuff and walk away. To continue to work and to continue to compete is one of the most difficult things, especially when you really don't have anything - KG

You are delusional.  With the way he's been playing?  Sadly, all he's riding on right now is potential and pre-injury reputation. 

Yes, I want him.  But he's way too expensive to get.  I'll pass.

How many guys out there are putting up his numbers (which is considered a down year?)


Did we not see him lead a team to the Finals already in his career? 


Top 4 along with Lebron, Durant and Paul.

I do, as long as we don't have to give up Rondo.

Lebron, Durant, Howard, and Paul are the clear top 4 players in the league right now head and shoulders above the rest.  Only player who could join that group is Rose if comes back to play at his pre-injury level.

Rondo is great, but trade Rondo for any of those 4 and even Rose.  They are all transcendent players.

Top 4.

If he got fully healthy, top 2.  Best big man in the league.

But what about all the reasons I have to dislike him that are based entirely on speculation on him as a lockerroom influence, despite my having no actual interaction with him, his former teammates, or his coaches, and having to base everything on what the media says about him? Isn't that as important as 'numbers' or 'evidence'?
