Is it his ****ing fault the owner is in love with the biggest waste of talent I've seen in Maggette[yes more then guys like Darius] or that the front office was all over Livingston's **** and didn't deal him for Pierce nor AI, **** even Artest? Is it his fault that the front office drafts Yaroslav Korolev over Danny Granger and we can't draft to save our lives?
ELTON BY HIMSELF CAN NOT LEAD THIS TEAM ANYWHERE. LOOK AT GARNETT IN MINNESOTA, IS HE A LOSER BECAUSE HE COULDN'T LEAD THAT TEAM ANYWHERE? GOD DAMN, GARNETT MUST SUCK THEN AND BE AN OVERRATED PIECE OF CRAP WHO DOESN'T DESERVE THE MAX  |
Dude nobody is talking crap about Brand, i think it's unanimous that he's everyone's favorite clipper ever, pretty much. And its really not an issue if he were healthy or not, if we were sitting around .450 again, this discussion would be just as valid as it is now... we're not anywhere near a championship team. I said it back during our playoff year and i'll say it now, this lineup has about 2-3 years left to get a championship or move on, the time has come, it's time to move on...
Garnett is the perfect example of a team that has a great player... and is headed NOWHERE! Garnett has always been MVP-caliber, his fans love him, but he can't take the team anywhere by himself and it's better for everyone involved if he's traded. KG is on a contender like he deserves and Minnesota is young & is growing fast. I'd love to see Brand on a contender & see us with a young, rapidly improving team.
Hypothetically, if Minnesota never made that trade, who expects the fans to be happy with that team? I know i wouldn't be.
