Re: Gotta love Jalen
he's right.
1)alot of people think that starting delfino at the SG slot will solve those swingman problems (lol delfino vs eastern conference SGs = fail)
2)alot of people want to draft dejuan blair, which would make jawai a complete waste
3)some people want shawn marion back? seriously? there's a million of those kinds of players, and they're alot younger.

1) Link?
2) He is a complete waste right now, with or without Blair. Maybe someday he won't be.
3) There are not a million younger Shawn Marion's out there. That is (Please Use More Appropriate Word). And yes, some people want him back at a decent price.

some of these guys may not have the same contract or exact skill set as marion, but they're all alleged rebounding-finishers.
some of you lame-o real GMers will pick one from that list and disagree just for the sake of being a smart ass, quite frankly i don't care. my point is, athletic Fs aren't a dying market.

That is the list you come up with? There might be 2 guys who are better than Marion on that list. Another 2 that would be comparable and the rest are junk. In fact, starting Delfino at the SF spot would be a better idea than the majority of those guys. Talk about FAIL.

Re: Gotta love Jalen
and i don't need a link for my delfino point, he's in almost every realGMer's mock starting 5 for the season of 09-10.
if you're claiming you don't see it, you're in denial.
sorry if it seems like i'm out to get carlos, truthfully, i'm out to get you. yes, you. raptor fans can be straight up scrub lovers, i'm just trying to open your eyes.
the sad thing is, they really are going to bring delfino in :'(

Your point is (Please Use More Appropriate Word), and don't go around calling others smart asses if you're going to post **** like that. If the only criteria is "athletic wing", then let's just keep Joey since he's obviously as good as Marion. There are degrees of ability. That is why Shawn Marion will make around 8-10 million with his next contract and Joey will not. On top of that, the list of guys you posted are all varying degrees of talent and they all have very different skill sets. Lumping them all together is useless and superficial.

Sorry mang but you can hate me now but I thought Delfino should have been starting for the Raps this season and am all for him starting next year.

yeah i'm done internet fighting, marion will be gone this year, and delfino will be reigning SG. there's no point in me doing this.
ps. trade bosh for biedrins, and the 7th pick, draft tyreke and demar. good bye cruel world.

Despite awful shot mechanics, and not much of a purported brain off the court, Marion's b-ball IQ is well above average. It is not a fluke that he is always in the right place at the right time.

the fact that guy has darius miles on his list...
#Raptors are 7-1. In 6 of the past 10 seasons, a team that has started a season 7-1 has gone on to win an NBA championship.
