Subject: 1/22 I don't do the low-post thing anymore- Action


  Posted by: deejay - Sustainer [501182710] Tue, Jan 22, 2008, 16:30

Former Sixers coach Jim O'Brien (now with the Pacers) ripped Chris Webber on Monday saying "He clearly was toward the end of his career" when the Sixers acquired him near the 2005 trade deadline.

O'Brien said he wanted to actively use Webber in the low post at the time to open up shots for 3-point threat Kyle Korver. "He said, 'Coach, I don't do the low-post thing anymore,'" O'Brien recalled. "We just made a major trade to bring in this (6-foot-10) guy and he said, 'No.' I said, 'Yes, you do.'" Webber and O'Brien never got along and this story solidfies the thought that Webber won't have too much fantasy value once he signs with another team this season.

Great post DJ

for a $127 million (or whatever his 7 year contract is), there are some unspeakable things people would do, apparently low post is not on that list

This SUCKS. Mo Williams over Gerald Wallce, worst idea ever. I also love it how the early Lebron combined with Cassell over Robinson prevent me from moving him to Kobe.

I didn't want to make a panic move and sell just in case it was premature, but I see he's officially out now. Hopefully most people didn't see in time and the price hit won't be too bad. Ugh.

I think if you add so far this game and the last two games he had more assists and boards in one game before these combined.

KIDD
Shooting great, but just not that active in other catagories. A whole 9 TSNP at the half with 4-6 shooting and 2-2 beyond the arc.
1 whopping assists....what are all of you thinking of doing about this...I see he went up 100k tonight. Yikes.

Kidd with:

0 rebounds
0 steals
0 blocks
1 assist

I think he is playing with a migraine. Or proving a point.

21 tsnp it is then WOW! Kidd went up 100k tonight which cancels the sell off last night so do I cut and run with some profits or does he turn this around in two days and get back to normal? Sometimes players play in streaks and right now the streak is not good to hold.
