Too one dimensional? The guy can score in so many ways! He can post up allmost any SG or SF, he can hit the 3, he can penitrate, he can hit the mid range j. And, sure he doesn't create much for others, but he does run with the team, and is often the one lofting the allies to Darius. He is also a fantastic rebounder, especially for his size, as he can outrebound anyone his size. I think Q can become much more than a bench player, which is part of why I think I am ok with seeing LO leave and you are not. Q could become a great player in the league because there are so many ways he can beat you on offense. Also keep in mind that he is still getting better. He would only just now be graduating from collage. He should, and will work on his D which, like you said is average, but I think he has enough wepons to be a killer in the L.

One dimensional in that all he can do is score for himself.

Q is a great scorer. And yes, he can get out on the break and play. But, his problem is that in a set offense, all he wants to do is score. When he gets the ball, he either hoists up a 3, or pushes up a shot downlow, even if it disrupts the team. He doesn't play well or within a team flow on offense, and that is why I think he'll only be a bench player. He doesn't get his points casually throughout the game, he gets his points cuz he's always forcing some sort of shot up when he gets the ball. That is perfectly fine in a 6th man that comes in for instant offense, but I don't think it is ideal in a starter. Sure, he can improve here, and if he does, I'll love it. But, I don't know if he will. And I honestly don't care if he does change, cuz if he's coming off the bench, I think it's a fine trait for that offensive energy as a reserve.

Sometimes he disrupts the flow of the game but in the games I have watched it doesn't happen everytime. Sure he could work on that a little and I wouldn't be suprised if he openly does, and I also think that if he gets more minutes he won't feel the need to rush and score whenever he gets the ball. If he got at least 25 minutes I could see this problem going away.

I dont think he spoke out against management, I think it was against the players when they lost to the Jazz when they couldve beat em and been one game out.

I think the Clippers have to sing the Kandi man if they want to go anywhere. It'll be up to them wether they do, but they need him. I totally agree with ESPN (or whoever said it) that he's the 2nd best center in the league. Look at the other centers around the league, most of them are declining and all the all time greats like Ewing, Hakeem and Robinson are leaving soon. I'd say Kandi and the Suns center are the only two in the league that will have huge improvement still. This is also the reason why I think Ming will be good, there's no one else that can really compete if they continue to improve.

Kandi can and will become a force. In a few years when he hits his prime Robinson, Ewing, Zo, and Hakeem will all have retired, and Shaq will be starting to decline. Shaq will still be better than Kandi but other than Desil there will be no one else who is in the league right now who will be better at the C spot than kandi. He is crucial to the team.

I must admit I am a fan of Olowokandi without a doubt. He's a big man who isn't afraid of nobody and won't back down from a challenge, he wasn't the #1 pick for nothing and i've got a feeling if you keep breeding him he will develop into an impact player mark my words.

Don't give up on the Kandi Man yet, he's still young.
