Von Wafer thinks he's Iverson or something 

Post#1 » by 2fast4u » Sat May 9, 2009 9:07 am

wtf is wrong with him?, why cant he just sit beyond the 3 pt. line then just take open 3s all day? that's what he's known for in the 1st place, rather than thinking he's tmac and just drive and shoot some insanse floaters and whatever jumpshots he could think of. :(
its ok to break some rules once in a while...

he is our Luther Head of this playoffs....

he is just not getting it done, this series

I subscribe to the theory

if your not going to pass the ball then, you better put it in the net.

the one game he played half decent he gets himself booted by his own coach. :roll:

He's not even close to being as bad as Luther. He's still LebVon, and staying aggressive, which is what we need from our offensively challenged second unit.

Comparing him to Head is blasphemy. Totally ignorant, as well.

I've been saying it forever. He takes really bad shots (shot selection wise) especially when Yao isn't in there. Everyone just praises him when they go in, but one day (like recently) everyone will see the truth.

Then again, you could say the same thing about Mac/Artest. When they play within the system, they're great players, but when they wanna play NBA Ballers style, that's when we suck the hardest.

lol ok von wafer is bad, but he is no where near as bad as luther head was. luther head is the worst nba player in league history. A few years ago when i saw jerry stackhouse TORCH david wesley, i thought no one would ever be worse than wesley, but then Head came along

I was at the game last night, and all the dude would do is dribble around and taking every shot he could. He rarely passed and when he did it resulted in some TO. Horrible.

I remember him when he played for the Lakers there was this joke where no one knew his name. He would do the same thing as a rookie, just chuck the ball. I think he has played well for you guys and made a name for him sort of. I agree with you guys though he is a good shooter when he spots up. But ya yesterday and game 2, it seems he is trying to take control of the game on himself.

Even during 2-on-1 situations with Yao underneath the basket, the guy would launch a floater rather than giving up the ball.

My opinion is he wants to show the league what hes got. but right now he FAILS.
hes thinking to much about the game. just play your game and it will come.

Von Wafer justs needs to look at the game film like he did during the season and see the guys that he's leaving open so he can start getting assists again

Even though it looks like bad shots...but i think every time he shoots it's automatic....so i have no problem with him driving and shoot.

He's terrible. All his minutes should be given to Lowry.

Lowry is a boss, he gets to the line and finishes. I think I watch him singlehandledly create 5-6 3point plays in the last two games.

He was playing well this last game. I don't see why Rick only played him 6 minutes. There was no reason to play MoRon 43 minutes when he was chucking like that. Von would have at least taken it in.

He'd better play at least 48 this next game.
