DUH ... you're the problem, .edited - clipshow . I just don't get it. Is he so delusional that he refuses to see himself. This guy is NO KID. He's what 29-30 (?) years old. I've asked this question often ... doesn't he have an Agent to help steer him toward the money he's trying to get. If so, frankly, I believe this agent has given up on Kandi and is letting him hang himself. Kandi seems like the kind of person that listens to no one, so I'm not really blaming the agent.
I touched on this on previous boards. He reminds me of someone under the influence of something and could be why his teammates have tried to support him in the past. Last night, I believe he lost their support.
STILL I ASK, since no one is telling me: Did I see him sit down on the court and then stretch out on the sidelines when taken out of the game before the end of the 2nd quarter? I'm surprised that that is not being discussed in the media, which again raises a red flag for me (maybe, the media has the same suspicions that I have). I truly hope I'm wrong about that because I hate to see anyone's life and livelihood lost to drugs.
I hope he's just dense and immature.
Oh, and I agree with the Center by committee concept. Hell, we certainly can't do any worse. ZhiZh just needs some minutes and so does Rooks. Re: Rooks, with that playing time, his experience and maturity is invaluable. (As an aside, I believe Rooks has lost respect for Gentry. He's not the same as he was when the young guns were committed to gaining respectability for the Clippers and Gentry allowed him to participate. Then, Gentry gradually took Rooks out of the game and Rooks started showing signs of discontent. Gentry, IMO, did not address that properly.) I can't speak for Ely yet.

I agree with everything you say. Frustrating isn't it.
