I agree. Outlaw needs to step it up. 6th year in the league. Problem is his bball IQ is low and that cant be improved. He needs to take smarter shots, play better help defense, and most of all REBOUND!
Travis has picked up too many bad habits and doesn't seem to show a true commitment to the defensive end. He'll hit a big shot in the 4th quarter, but if we had a better SF we would probably be up by 10 points at the end of game and not need the last second heroics anyway.
He needs to step out. I was really hoping KP would have traded his sorry ass for a real SF. But no, he "loves" Outlaw, he's so young, and he's apart of our special team.
I disagree. I think other GM's see Outlaw as fools gold and didnt want him with Raef. They wanted the true gems... Rudy, Bayless, and or Batum. I think KP would have traded Raef and Outlaw for Jefferson, Butler, or Wallace if he could have.
Well ya, you're saying they didn't want him because he's not very good. Not many players in this league have suddenly "turned it on" after 6 years, college or no. Outlaw is what Outlaw is.
If Canzano doesn't know the role that Outlaw is expected to play, then he has no business covering the team. I did find it odd that KP was very curt with Canzano, who didn't even bother to ask about Oden, while at the same time being very cordial with the Fan guys. And the Fan guys asked better and more challenging questions. Canzano's initial question to KP. "Did you drop the ball?"
Outlaw gets paid 4 mil/yr with 2 years being a team option, and all of a sudden he is expected to be the savior?
Exactly . . . pay him star money and he will play like a star for a whole game. Until then, I'm glad he chooses the 4th quarter (opposed to the other quarters) to earn his pay.
That's sarcasm right? I'll assume that is is. Because I don't give a fuck if a guy is "only getting paid 4 million", or "only getting paid 12 million". I don't expect anything more from Outlaw because I already know his game. I just think his game hurts us way more often than it helps.
That's ridiculous. No matter how good your team is, you will play in lots of close games throughout the season and you need someone who can deliver the goods in the clutch. Travis does this.
I just can't stand the Outlaw hate in here. The guy delivers in the clutch and he's only 24!! He'll hit series winning shots in the playoffs and people will still hate on him. It sucks. The other 29 teams in the league will say "we need an Outlaw on our team" and our fans won't realize what we have. Ridiculous.
Most of the time Tarvis has to deliver in the clutch because he has been beaten so bad on defense that we need to score.
