I dont blame the kid at all. he is not being used in a way that can demonstrate his skills. now these dumbasses are talking about sending him to the d-league. if tyson chandler can play in this league so can sean williams. tyrus thomas is another example. frank is just stupid. these players need to revolt.
Agreed, when guys like Simmons and Hassel are getting more playing time then you, you have to be pissed. So much energy and talent going to waste for washed up veterans that can only shoot jumpers 2 inches off the ground, and are slow as a fat women walking up the steps. Must be part of the process.
I don't believe this was done out of anger towards Frank. He did it out of his own frustration for missing two key open shots.
He needs a better situation. Let's face it, Frank isn't gonna use him and if he does, he won't use him properly. Sean needs to go to a team that needs an energy big man. Denver is looking for bigs btw.
This talk about needing a better situation is garbage. The fact is he's just not a good basketball player.
It's a shame what's going on with Sean. If he were to get 20 minutes a game, he'd absolutely help this team with energy and D. Look what he did in his first two minutes last night. He had like 3 boards and 4 points. This team is terrible, there's no excuse not to try and develop a guy with upside. And when you do, you have to live with the occasional ill-advised shot. I'd rather see Sean shooting a 15-footer than Najera. They knew they were getting a raw talent when they drafted him, and it's on them to give him a chance to develop it.
That's a good idea. How big is JR Smith's contract? Any way we could swing a trade for him? Send them Vince and Williams for JR and Kleiza? Karl clearly hates JR so much, that they are starting Dahntay Jones over him now. I'm heading to the trade machine...
Actually, Najera (in the past that is) has a nice shot for a man his size. Although I still think Sean should get minutes.
JR just signed a big contract extension I believe. I'd also try to keep Vince if I were you guys, I mean he has been a good captain this year. Might want to try to dump Hassel and Simmons, but without giving up Vince, Yi, Lopez, or Harris, I doubt you guys can get Smith, unless they REALLY hate him that much. But for the pipe dream effect: PG: Devin Harris SG: JR Smith SF: Vince Carter PF: Yi Jianlian C: Brook Lopez
If you guys read the quote correctly like Netted did, I believe he was mad at himself, at least according to the beat writers.
For those who were curious: http://www.realgm.com/src_checktrade.php?tradeid=4815513 I don't think Denver takes it. I mean they'll be giving you two guys who haven't played this year yet, Hunter with no minutes and Atkins with the injury. They are giving away JR Smith, a big time scorer when on fire. You guys merely give up Williams and Hassel, which I don't think Denver would even want Hassel. Only thing going for Denver in this trade would be the big expiring contract in Swift. Also Hunter and Atkins will be expired come 2010. Again this trade is merely for your entertainment.
I didn't mean Sean should be playing the 3. I mentioned them in terms of impact/playing time. But if you're talking about shooting and handling, then don't mention Hassel/Simmons either.
Simmons and Hassell playing has nothing to do with Sean not getting a lot of minutes no matter how bad they suck. My point was that Sean can only play C. That's all he has the skills for and Boone and Lopez deserve minutes over him because they know how to box out and rebound.
