Decent rookie year before being hurt, blew his knee out last year, and troubles adapting this year. He has admitted that he is still trying to get his knee right. So simple question, did they give up on him too soon?
I heard the main complaint is his defense, which is supposedly horrible. If he wants to be more than the 15th man, he has to improve. Shooting wise, he was great in college, but I guess it hasn't really translated into the NBA. His rookie year in the NBA wasn't exactly horrible, but his injury just ruined him. He has confidence issues, maybe he gets that sorted here in LA? Maybe he needs a change of scenery? Who knows, but I'm rooting for him. Anybody who sits on the bench checking blood sugar levels just to make sure he is healthy enough to play obviously loves the game. Hopefully he succeeds here.
Oh yeah, his defense makes Vlad Rad look like a fucking DPOY. However the staff knew that when they traded for him. I don't think they expect much defense out of him.
I root for anyone in a Lakers Uni so I'll be cheering for him. He just better not make me look like a fu*kin idiot.
He's young and we got some decent production out of Smush and Kwame at one point, given the circumstances.
In his interview, AMMO didn't actually seem to enthusiastic. Brown however Im excited to see play. <object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wfUIrbumRkU&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wfUIrbumRkU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object> <object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KEoMEt92wmU&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KEoMEt92wmU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object>
I think that is just Ammo's demeanor. He's a gamer and with Kobe, I don't know why he wouldn't be excited. I think he wants to turn his career around. I hope he can.
