May 1, 200719 yr Show your true Character AI. To bad he has that loser label on him and always will. He has never won anywhere he has been. It's not his fault, the Spurs are just a much better team.
May 1, 200719 yr It's not his fault, the Spurs are just a much better team. I meant by ripping off his jersey as the buzzer sounded.
May 1, 200719 yr You got to remember he ended up joining this team in mid-season. So give this team a whole offseason together and this Nugget team will be very dangerous next year in the West... That still doesn't replace the fact that he has been a loser every place he has been too.
May 1, 200719 yr ^He led a very bad 76ers team to the NBA finals about 5-6 years back....The guy is all heart, and will do anything to win.
May 1, 200719 yr That still doesn't replace the fact that he has been a loser every place he has been too. He didn't lose that bowling alley brawl he was in. :lol: While I agree, he ushered in a new "era" of thugs in the NBA, he has a track record of winning and leaving it out on the court. Big East Rookie Of The Year - NCAA Big East Defensive Player Of The Year - NCAA (1996) NBA Rookie of the Year (1997) All Rookie First Team (1997) NBA Most Valuable Player (2001) 4-time NBA Scoring Champion 3-time All NBA First Team Selection 3-time All NBA Second Team Selection 3-time NBA Steals Champion Guided his football team to a state championship as a quarterback, took the 76ers to the NBA finals, yes they got beat up in that series, but he was the main reason why they were there. He does everything he can to help his team win, not his fault he has never really had any talent around him. I might not agree with his attitude at times off the court, but I would love to have him in a Bulls uniform. Well not now, seeing as how they are doing just fine without him, BUT a few years ago, YES I would. : )
May 1, 200719 yr Track record of winning what?? Individual awards. I am taking about team success and Championships which he has never won and probably never will.
May 1, 200719 yr He led his high school team to a state championship and helped the 76ers win the Eastern Conference championship. We have seen how well Kobe has done ON HIS OWN, he is another example of a hall of fame player who needs some help around him to win.

Some players just have that winners mentality and AI isn't one of them. Everyone needs help thats not the point.
May 1, 200719 yr To me a winning mentality is doing everything you can to help your team win. Playing hurt, leaving it out on the court all the time. He may not have the rings at the end of the day, but that is a winning mentality to me. He has flaws in his game like anyone else and he has taken shots for being selfish at times with his points, just like many other players. I only bring Kobe into the conversation because without Shaq, he would likely still be looking for his first ring. Kobe leaves it on the court and has taken some of the same "selfish" knocks against him and his game.
May 1, 200719 yr Something I was thinking about today....Who was the NBA guy who went into the stands a year or two ago because he thought his wife was in trouble?
May 2, 200719 yr Something I was thinking about today....Who was the NBA guy who went into the stands a year or two ago because he thought his wife was in trouble? Antonio Davis for the Knicks when they were playing in Chicago. Dallas FINALLY playing like a team who darn near won 70 games this year. Game 6 is going to be A LOT of fun to watch.
May 2, 200719 yr ^ I think the Mavs win this one...but the GSW will make it closer in the second half.
May 2, 200719 yr Wow... The deficit for Golden State went from 21 to 7 in just a matter of a few minutes, and they still have the 2nd half to go with all momentum on their side. 62-55 at the half, and Stackhouse got T'ed up at the close of the half, so the Warriors have tecnical shots to start the 2nd half.
