First they don't get into the playoffs; now they don't even tie the Suns for best record to not make the playoffs.

The Warriors would be the 4th seed if they were in the East.

Don't even beat the Sonics at home on the last game! This can't be the best team to have missed the playoffs.

Brandon Roy is as good as anybody on our team.

He's probably better than SJax, and maybe Monta. But Monta will surpass him next year. And Baron's 22-5-8-2 >>> Roy's 19-4-5. Roy's defense and leadership are grossly overrated, far worse than Baron's. Plus, Baron's PER sh*ts on Roy's.

Time to Believe in another charity case, Believer.
Baron will NEVER do that again. He was already dying this year:

He's 28, not 48. Most stars still play well into their 30s. Unless of course, if you think Baron is a Steve Francis or a Marbury, which he clearly isn't. Baron's stats will be down only b/c of Monta's uprising into an elite player. I also predict Tay to average over 25-28ppg. Monta will be an all-star next year. Book it.

Baron's not a star.


And by the way, what does lack of talent and teamwork (Francis/Starbury) have to do w/declining? Its a statement of fact that most PGs deteriorate at around the 30+ age. Only the truly smart and shrewd get by. Which one is Baron again? :rofl:

^^^ Quit taking so much weight into his recent play. He's still among the leaders in various stats and has hit many clutch shots this year. Keep in mind that Nash was PEAKING at around 30.

Nash has impeccable shot selection and never gives up on his team... those are pretty essentially ingredients in being not only a PG but a leader... Baron lacks both.
