GT Raptors @ Lakers: Raps play spoilers

[Blacklash2k4]

Love JV tonight! Looks like a much complete player! Can't blame him since he's playing his favorite player, Dwight Howard!

[white men can't jump]

I want to like AA but fuck he makes it impossible.. guy is so selfish

It was fine pre-trade on a young team that had already dug itself a hole. They needed a guy who could be a "6th man" presence even if he isn't suited to it. But now he has to slide back to a 4th-5th wing position, and settle for shooting open shots and playing D.

true but I feel like its been a progressive thing since the season began.. he was much more of a team player early on and took good shots.. its progressed to where he doesnt pass at all and shoots anytime he gets it.. it was happening before the trade too.. I honestly feel like he just wants a longer contract than 1 year after this season

Anyone thinking we should have done the Boozer Bargnani trade?

It's annoying, because he was playing more comfortably when given too big a role. It's like he knew he was the 1st option off the bench and a legit option at all times, so he felt ok passing it knowing it was fine for him to take a bunch of shots. Now it's like he's trying to recapture that role, or play that way at least...instead of scaling his game back and still being comfortable with the team.

Refs treating Howard like a princess

[white men can't jump]

That's why the foul they gave JV against Artest was BS...it was like "you don't deserve this, but it'll make it easier to get you out of the game fast for LA"

[Blacklash2k4]

Can we pull anderson from the game? He's cold again...

Refs treating Howard like a princess

lol I thought it was really obvious that he is one.

[white men can't jump]

Fuck AA!!!! Goddamn it. I will not be happy until this guy's playing time is heavily cut.

You know Telfair is a good pick up he is very irritating defender.
