Ah k. He's been fine so far, but thats not saying much on a team starting Mark Blount at center I guess..

Collins is just a good-for-nothing bum and no more athletic or coordinated than I am. He's the walking definition of a guy who only started playing basketball because he was bigger and taller than everyone else.

And since I like Kwame only twice as much, that should tell you something about Kwame, too.

LOL u still like him better than Swift?

Do I like him better? No. I've never said I did.

Would I rather have Swift back on the team? Again, no.

My ideal scenario is to have Collins on the team and not playing than have Stromile on the team (and in the locker room) getting minutes. As soon as Collins starts getting DNP-CDs, I'll be somewhat content.

Yeah you did. You came to our thread and started raving about how Swift was horrible too. Than you saw Collins play and you were like ****.

Well, then I didn't say what you originally said, did I? Swift is horrible, I said it, and I'll continue to say it. He was horrible tonight, in fact, and can barely find the court in Jersey right now. Has he already turned the coaching staff off with his laziness or is he too stupid to learn a new playbook?

I don't remember saying Collins was ever a better player, just that I'd rather have him on my team over Swift because Swift was turning into such a cancer in the locker room and is just an overall doofus.

yea im sure your more athletic and coordinated then collins. dude you dont know anything about basketball you think its all about scoring but the guy doesnt even ask for the ball and lets others shoot which is good to have on your team. he can score here and then give him a break he was much better on the nets but memphis is so bad that he cant even help the lousy team with his defense

You apparently don't understand hyperbole and probably haven't read many of my basketball-related opinions.

I feel bad for you. And your parents.

hey dude you leave jason collins alone ok?! he only averages 1 and 2 because he plays just 20 minutes a game! if he played 40 minutes like everyone else in the league, he'd average 2 and 4 so shut up dude! you obviously don't know basketball!!! all you care about is scoring, rebounding, playing defense without fouling, being able to grab the ball when it comes toward you and being physically able to close your mouth. you're not smart enough to see all the OTHER INTANGIBLE STUFF jason collins brings to the court!!!

just look at his +/- rating! nuff said dude, nuff said!!

He's a 7-foot version of Yogi Stewart, except Yogi was twice the shot-blocker.

Chan · 03-19-2008, 08:22 PM

So from what I've heard Collins was a good defender because he was strong enough to bother some players so they couldn't get their shots off clean. He doesn't do anything else well.

I wonder how similar the Collins twins are to the Lopez twins from Stanford, at least in terms of hype and impact.

Chan · 03-19-2008, 08:25 PM

LOL @ the Nets fan impression. "He can score here and then." He can scores one point a game. From a shot within 5 feet of the hoop. Congratulations.
