Great post stayfly.

I too am a huge Delonte West fan. He is WAY underrated by alot of folks and has been producing all year. Last year he was our 2nd best player, this year with Mo he is probably 3rd/4th but is vital because he anchors our perimeter defense.

We're all Delonte West fans. Delonte is a huge fan favorite. Even when there was Amare trade talks including Delonte people were saying "Screw Amare, Delonte is staying." We absolutely love him!

Yea, he has that first game back where he threw up 25 pts., but since then he hasn't been that impressive.

My only beef with DWest is he's a little too unselfish... Would like to see him not pass up open shots or driving lanes... He tends to do that...

Redz is a warrior, my only concern with him is how he throws himself at meaningless stops for injury risks. For example the wrist injury this year, weren't we up by double digits early against a subpar team when he went for that block? WTF? Dude think.

If it was in the fourth quarter in a close game or against a top team, or some other situation that meant something, maybe. But it was the first quarter early in that game!

When I saw it I thought "this is how Drew Gooden would have hirt himself if he know what the word defense meant", damn.

I feel the same way, but this is Delonte West we are talking about here. He sacrifices his body to make any play (great or not). And we should all know that he plays with 110% effort every game. Like it or not, I don't see his meaningless stops ending anytime soon.

In stead of the Dynamic Duo, They should call Lebron, Mo and West the "Tremendous
Trio"

Agreed. I was going to say something similar to this. This team looks a lot more dangerous when D-West is more agressive offensively.
