After his injury, I would be hesitant to put Rose as a franchise
Sep 03rd 2012
1
That might be true, but until he proves otherwise, he should be on there
Sep 03rd 2012
2
      see it's the other way around for me, I don't anticipate him
Sep 03rd 2012
4
           I feel you, but it's not a guarantee that he won't be
Sep 03rd 2012

                would you trade Bynum for Rose right today? I sure as hell wouldn't
Sep 03rd 2012

                     LOL I see your point
Sep 03rd 2012

                                    and who was saying Rondo and Deron were franchise players
Sep 04th 2012
66
                                         deron? plenty of folks...rondo maybe not until his 3rd year.
Sep 04th 2012
78
                                         More or less everyone assumed Deron was going to be one.
Sep 04th 2012

Sep 04th 2012
108
                                                                  his rookie numbers were very Andre Millerish but he's a franchise player
Sep 04th 2012
113
                                                                       and my point is...you can't tell off a rookie year always
Sep 04th 2012

                          agreed, but the point is Magic wasn't just ANY pg
Sep 05th 2012

LaMarcus Aldridge
Sep 03rd 2012
41
What has LaMarcus proven that Rondo hasn't?
Sep 04th 2012
72
yeah, as good as Aldridge is he doesn't dominate games
Sep 04th 2012
87
he occasionally dominates, but admittedly not enough
Sep 04th 2012
121
      yeah he has his moments, that's why he's a star
Sep 04th 2012
127
           He's one of the most consistent players in the league.
Sep 04th 2012

Sep 05th 2012

3 years? lol
Sep 04th 2012

      If you think LaMarcus is better than Rondo then you're delusional
Sep 05th 2012
159
           I didn't say that LMA was better than Rondo.
Sep 05th 2012
169
                lol not building around rondo?
Sep 05th 2012
172
                     Because Boston didn't want to resign Ray?

Sep 05th 2012

Sep 05th 2012

                                              20ppg when you make almost 60% of your shots IS dominant...
Sep 05th 2012
232

                     the argument you're making for Durant is the same argument
Sep 05th 2012
219
                          Not really. Durant's defense is not even close to being as much a liabil...
Sep 05th 2012
222
                     This may answer your question about Durant's defense.
Sep 05th 2012

                          and when Ibaka puts up 20+ PPG he'll be a franchise player
Sep 05th 2012
225
                               You mean just like David Lee?
Sep 05th 2012
226
                                    and lead his team in Rebs and Blks...yeah, then we can talk
Sep 05th 2012
228
                                         right, you gotta come up with like 3 people to do everything...
Sep 05th 2012
230
                                              You have a guy that supposedly does all that, yet can't get a chip.
Sep 05th 2012
231
                                                   how long did it take Lebron to get one?
Sep 05th 2012
234
                                                        Who gives a fuck about Lebron, we talkin about Dwight.
Sep 05th 2012
236
                                                             well you said Lebron and Dwight are the only franchise players...
Sep 05th 2012
237
                                                                  correction, he's arguing for Durant, who also doesn't have a ring
Sep 05th 2012
238
                                                                  Yeah, he'll get his chip this year. He's going to be in the best positio...
Sep 05th 2012
239
                                                                       and you still don't get it. he's a 3-time defensive player of the year.....
Sep 05th 2012
240
                     is that Lamarcus' excuse? lol
Sep 05th 2012
204
                          Um, no excuses. I've admitted he needs to board better.
Sep 05th 2012
