The Best and the WORST

Awesome article from Stephen A. Smith (thanks Niyi) detailing how the Lakers have the best player in the NBA (Kobe Bryant) and the Worst (you know who)

Stephen A. Smith | In Bryant and Brown, L.A. has best and worst

“For the Lakers might be the first team in NBA history to have the league’s best player - and, arguably, its worst.

Every time Kwame Brown sets foot on a basketball court, let alone touches a ball, you scratch your head and ask how in the world could Michael Jordan have possibly drafted Brown No. 1 overall in any NBA draft”

“Brown is a joke, not because of his talent, but because of his lack of effort. Putrid results are what they are, especially for a kid who has never grown as a player but is still guaranteed $9,075,000 next season”

and the kicker:

“And that lesson is: You can be one of the greatest ever, but what good are you if Kwame Brown can tarnish that reality?”

In Sync

John Hollinger of ESPN.com posted the following quality info in his “10 key observations from first playoff weekend” article:

”

(While we’re on the topic, here’s my favorite moment from the Suns-Lakers game: After the recently-returned-to-action Kwame Brown missed a finish at the basket, the announcers said it looked like he was out of sync. Actually, that seemed perfectly in sync to me. Really, this play was different from the rest of his career because … why? Anyway, that got me thinking. Let’s say Kwame really was out of sync. How would you tell? What could you possibly offer as proof?)

Team Role

From my friend Jordan’s blog copyandcigarettes.com:

“Anyway, TNT has this thing they do which is completely ridiculous. At random times during the game when a player is shooting free throws, they run this “stat” under his name that says “Team Role,” followed by whatever his “team role” is.

For instance, today during the Cavs/Wiz game, I noticed two. They were:

Lebron James: Miracle Worker

Anderson Varejao: Team Energizer Bunny.

….

So anyway, just for the hell of it, and in yet another attempt to alienate any of my female readers, here’s a list of some real Team Roles for various players in the NBA playoffs:

….

LA Lakers:

Kobe Bryant: Team Rapist.

Kwame Brown: Cake Thrower. Popeye’s Eater. Pussycat. Child. Bust. Choose one.

Steal of the Decade

Notes Michael Wilbon:

“Getting the Lakers to take Kwame Brown while getting Caron Butler in return qualifies as the NBA steal of the decade. Phil Jackson has acknowledged walking past Brown and purring “Meooooooooow” into the ear of his 7-foot, 275-pound center. You can figure out on your own what Jackson is saying to and about his big kitty-cat with that one editorial comment.”
