I have no idea why anybody expected more out of JO... I mean did you SEE him in last year's playoffs against us? He looked so washed up...
It was the same thing with Rasheed, to be honest.
Both times I heard a chorus of "Oh, he's just quit on his team, he's still got it though!" and both times the pundits have been proven wrong, it seems. Old players with creaky knees/backs don't "quit" on teams... they just get old and become completely ineffective.
