Magliore 

Post#1 » by vtime » Sun Feb 3, 2008 3:05 am

He was an All-Star 3 or 4 years ago and now he just sits on the bench like he can't play. What gives? Does one year in Portland, where he clearly wasnt part of their plans spoil the entire league, including Lawrence Frank's perception of him. Even in an off year in Milwaukee in 2006, he was outstanding and the starting center on a playoff team. He rebounded and played defense and averaged roughly a double-double with zero touches. He should start for most teams in the NBA. What's the deal?

He has metal knees this year. Slow as a goat.

Shoots with his non-shooting hand, horrible conditioning, slow, commits the dumbest fouls on both ends, loves to stay in the paint and get called for 3s, can't pass...you know, play basketball.

He rebounds and defends. He's a better positional defender than the rooks being a vet and all. He even scores from time to time. Besides, we need a new Collins. He'll be our new and improved.

Honestly have you even watched the games ? Collins was backup for the young guys for a reason even though he was far from good .

Everytime Magloire was in the game he instant fouled someone and took a bad shot when he had the ball on offensive.
