Sasha Vujacic: Saga of a shooter
Sasha Vujacic has come a long way in the last six months as a player and a personality. Sasha was labeled the "11 O'clock player" by Phil Jackson, and it stuck. 11 O'clock player means he plays well at the practices, but not at the games. This year, Sasha is proving his naysayer's wrong by playing with the poise and confidence of a champion. He was even given...

He will also go down as the player involved in the most lopsided trade ever...that deal the Lakers got for Gasol is unmatched. If the Lakers win the title they should send Kwame a ring thanking him for being so lazy and soft. Now if only the Knicks could do the same thing with Eddy Curry
Here's another guy to toss out there: Keith Van Horn.
He has been retired from the league after a horrible playing career, and had to negotiate a new contract to complete the Nets-Mavs trade!
Why don't you guys ever mention Marc Gasol. And Javaris C. is really quite good. Remember we were at the bottom last year too! Coach or no coach! They booed Pau here and they booed Kwame in L.A. Kwame wasn't feeling that triangle stuff. But Pau is. Stand under the rim and wait for something to happen.
So what's your point?
