Who is the NBA's biggest Parasite?

[Blame Rasho]

Honestly, is there a player who is more dependent on another player like Chandler is to Paul? Chandler has always been an amazing rebounder but has always left alot to be desired on the offensive end, but with Paul, he must always be accounted for on the offense.

Gimme a break.

He's a top notch defender with limited offensive game. Calling him a parasite is just idiotic.

What is your problem?

Chandler is amazing as a defender even back to his Chicago days but he literally has to depend on Paul to be something on offense.

Kenyon Martin with and without ason Kidd. MOOOOOOOCH!! Actually, add Mikki Moore and Brian Scalabrarjihsalkg to the list, especially the latter.

ginobili is a bigger parasite, he shots alone all the time, i guess thats what it takes not be a superstar, and be an over rated role player.

The term parasite means someone who drains someone else without giving anything back.

So your usage doesn't make any sense. I agree that he needs Paul for his offense, but that doesn't make him a parasite.

Didn't mean to jump on you - it just initially looked like an insult.

I made it pretty clear what I meant in the original post if you bothered to read it.

K-mart pretty much fell off the face of the earth when he left Kidd. At least he's healthy now.



I don't think leech is the best word here how about Remora fish. Its more symbiotic


K-Mart=Remora Fish of NBA

Well then you should change the title to dependent or mutualistic or one of those other terms we learned in biology.

Parasite should be reserved for the Zach Randolphs of the world.

Is that why Kobe had career highs, broke NBA records while Shaq declined rapidly every year?

Zach doesn't depend on anyone to be good or utterly bad on the court. He is just a blackhole.

Gotta love laker fans...no respect whatsoever for what Shaq did for them. Talk about spoiled.

Let's look at it like this. Replace Chandler with Kwame Brown. Then see if it takes something on Chandlers end to complete all those alley oops.

Paul can't just do that with anyone out there.....

I think would actually be productive on the offensive end... but not to the degree as Chandler.

I actually had a thread not too long ago if having good hands is a skill or something that can be developed. No one really had an answer to that question.

Kwame can't catch passes on the move, so...

[Serpo]

Jason Kidd made Erik " Stone hands" Dampier look like he had good hands on several occasions . You just have to be able to pass well enough and everyone will be able to catch .

This is going to sound odd, even blasphemous, but I think a lot of Tony Parker's success comes from Tim Duncan. Without Duncan, his offensive effectiveness would be minimal, as his penetrating game would be taken away, leaving jumpshots that he can't hit consistently. He's not a great passer, nor is he an exceptional defender (though he's either average or above average in both categories), so I don't think he'd get All-Star consideration, let alone actually making the team.

However, I guess you could say that about a lot of players who play alongside a dominant big man.

So basically, this post is worthless.
