I know what you mean by Deng making us mediocre, I mean, guys who are all-stars and make all-defensive teams are completely shyte players. Who needs 'em?

Gay is.
By the way, that whole type of wing that can single handedly take over games that you mentioned, yeah, how is that working out for Gay in Memphis?
If Rudy Gay was a guy who could single handed take over games, there's no way there would be rumours of Memphis shopping him. There's no way they'd even entertains the thought of parting with him.Last edited by MangoKid; Wed Jun 20, 2012, 03:53 PM.

I'll say it again defensive ace...all star...tough....okay 3pt shot....already plays in a heavily defensive system....already coached by a defensive mastermind...we could do a lot worse than that...and Jesus people 26 - 28 is considered the prime. He could play 7 or 8 years at high levelFor still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar

The problem with Deng is his back which puts a ridiculous premium on his insurance for his contract and his wrist which needs surgery and he will likely miss the first 2 months of the season. Luckily, though, it is not his shooting wrist.

Role players are nice pieces on winnings teams. but nobody is mistaking these guys as "franchise cornerstones".
Take that role player and add him to a lottery team (while expecting him to be one your best players), gets you nowhere fast.Last edited by Nilanka; Wed Jun 20, 2012, 04:26 PM.
