Why IBTL? This is a good idea. We're gonna have to make do with Kwame for 2 months might as well make the best out of it.

i remember when they hired a freethrow coach for Shaquille.. I think they should do the same for Kwame. Hire Randy Johnson to throw 100+ MPH fastballs to Kwame while he's blindfolded.... DO IT MITCH! :rock:

Like who ?


You mean when I post on trade threads that are suppose to be in THE TRADE THREAD ?
Or maybe the negative threads about Lakers JINX or you remember when we were 26-13 thread , since I feel that it was negative and has nothing to do with the Lakers .


Okay , maybe its me , but please feel free to reply back to this O.P .

Since you asked , this is why .

How is this thread a meaningful contribution ?

For example , if you agree with the O.p , who do you have in mind .
Who?

And since we are talking about KWAME , the N# 1 draft pick and a waste of talent .
Who can teach him HOW to CATCH a ball , I mean the guy has been in the league for 6 years and he gets paid 9 mil for it and he cant catch a ball .
Are you kidding me , and the thread is about hiring someone to teach Kwame catch a BALL .............

My nephew is 6 years old and he can catch a ball , 6 YEARS old .
Catching a ball is a part of growing up , you know when your pops plays catch with you , when you played in little league , when you were in J.H , you made it to your J.V team , when you played in college .
It what you learned in sports .
How the **** are we going to get a coach to teach KWAME to catch a BALL ?

Members should use an appropriate, descriptive title when posting a new topic. Examples of bad titles include; "Huge Trade!", "Look Here!", "Check this out!", etc.


Title Kwame Brown .

Thread ............... We need to hire someone to teach Kwame how to catch a ball ....

Im sorry if I dont think this thread a bit worthless .
Then again we do have a lot of those poping up everywhere .

My bad , so BBL go ahead and reply to this thread and lets see what you have to contribute .

My bad for following the R&G of this board .

Im not a backseat Mod , I only post what I think and feel is positive or makes sense , this doesnt make sense , so to me I think the Mods might lock it .

Does it bother you ?

the rick barry incident comes to mind. not that he was physically brought in to help. but yeah.. u could say shaq was more interested about his image than winning.

and theres nothing wrong with the topic. the man said to bring in someone like popeye jones who has done it b4 with dallas (cant validate the accuracy of that)

although what we really need is an agility coach. id just have them practice jumping jacks and see who breaks their feet after a few :nonono: but that's neither here nor there.

Oh okay , thats sounds great .
I think thats a wonderfull idea .

I mean I dont know how that will help Kwame catch better balls but its a good start .

I was thinking more like hiring Mike Piazza .
You know the former Dodger catcher .

I wonder where he's at now ?

Anyone else knows who would be fit for this job ?

I think it is not a bad idea. Maybe an egg catching game is good.

I think a coach should go in there and throw an egg to him. If he catches it well the egg won't break. If he doesn't catch it cleanly he will break the egg and have egg whites all over in the process.

I didn't even want to come to this board after the suns game..lol he was just pathetic...

I'm glad he didn't have back to back pathetic games. he still had an average game at best overall due to his lack of defense awareness and his two offensive fouls but at least he showed signs of bouncing back with aggression.
Kwame Brown is servicable, get over it.

I did get it .

To everyone on this thread , Mods , BigBadLA , the O.P I only posted IBTL since I thought by following the rules and guidlines of this board this thread might get locked .
Thats it .

I wasn't nor am I trying to derail anyones thread, or trying to raise my post counts or am I playing backseat Mod .

I didnt think a thread that was posted about bringing someone in to teach Kwame How to catch a ball was going to be a valid thread , and all I did was post IBTL .
As this thread and all its reply has been replied as a Joke , thats how I took it and thats how I replied .
Thats it .

Why is everyone making a big deal about it .

I understood E.E post and I respected it and I left it alone and all I did was reply in good humor .

What else am I suppose to do .

Okay I will no longer post IBTL .

Im sorry , I didnt realize it was going to turn so ugly by me posting my inital response .

Im sorry .

I will never post IBTL anymore .
Cool
