'Member the time K-Mart played half a season for us and was awesome (until he got hurt)?

KMart had a bunch of good 1/2 seasons

Member when K-Mart was the #1 overall pick in 2000?

Noah is far from a bust. He won DPOY and anchored the defense on some really good teams. Rose honestly wasn't that great during his MVP season. The defense was just unreal and it allowed them to win with a med-to-low percentage volume shooter.

Careers used to regularly end shortly after players turned 30. The body breaks down. It's pretty typical. Not everyone can age like Iguodala.
Honestly, there's some guys in the 3 on 3 league that I thought had to be 50. Turns out, they just retired in their early 30s. He's close to that point.

People in here mad because dude is telling the truth?

KMart was a good defensive player and far and away the better offensive player.

His career was better. Stay mad because the world knows Phil fuqed up.

not mad that its true, just ironic coming from a dude that seemed to be injured more often than he was healthy (just loke Noah). Other than his run with J=Kidd, dude has never been able to stay on the floor. And he was an a-hole when he was at the top of his game. Noah wasn't a bum at the top of his game in Chicago. Its disingenuous to even go there.

Noah was the best player on a few 50+ win Bull teams the years Rose went down. His peak wasn't "short" either, it was about 5 years. He was a great defender and probably the best passing center in the league. His peak became a cliff the year before he got here lol.

I'll take Noah over K-Mart. K-Mart was always an underachiever. 1 time all-star who never really was one of top players on any of his teams. Was just kind of there.

Yo, Kenyon was speaking some truth in this interview. Especially when he was talking about players being too friendly with opponents these days. the stuff on Noah was funny too. Right now, it's true. It's on Noah to prove it's wrong.

Y'all really in here slandering OG TRIPLE OG?? If y'all don't get the hell up on outta here!

K-Mart was an absolute FORCE before the injuries hit. He anchored those Nets teams that ran the East for a nice stretch,

Players didn't retire in their early 30s. At least not the players that were good in their 20s. If you look at the history of players that won dpoy, they all played to their mid to late 30s.

This, showed the greatness of Kidd who pretty much took a couple of one dimensional bums to the finals. Everyone talks about AI taking the 76ers to the finals how about Kidd with KMart, Richard Jefferson, a washed up Zo, a washed up Vince Carter, etc

"Can't be no team leader when you on the training table everyday"

Kenyon was an electric athlete and a legit tough guy but he isn't the one to talk here. They both rode the coat tails of star players the majority of their careers.
BUT Joakim carried his team when Derrick went down and was a defensive player of the year.
Kenyon might be right that Joakim is severely overpaid but so was he. And let's not forget Kmart was a #1 pick overall that never quite lived up to his spot. Joakim was thought to be a defender and leader and he has lived up to it and exceeded his draft position.

Like I said tho, he ain't the one to be talking here.

This is how you know Knicks fans blindly defend the team.

Same ones trashing Noah are the same ones defending him just because K-Mart is taking shots at him.

Guess what? Noah fu*king sucks, why is ANYONE caping for him?

Hemispheres · Post #79 » by **Hemispheres** » Wed Jun 28, 2017 2:39 am

Noah does suck now and the contract Phil gave him should be a crime.

However K-Mart was also talking **** about prime Bulls Noah. Prime Noah >>>> Prime K-Mart. No question imo. Makes Martin seem awfully salty and petty.

Don't got a dog in the fight so I don't really care just a bad look talking trash about a player who was better than you. As Tim "Beetlejuice" Thoomas put it, K-Mart is a fugazi.
