Dude, at ANY time this year are you going to get your shit together? You havent put together a string of good games all year. What happened to you? How can you regress so badly yet nobody has claimed your work ethic has wandered. 1-6 today...0-3 on wide open 3's down the stretch. So lame. Last game you were lost on defense leaving your man wide open in the corner by going to the paint to play ole' defense on a guy who already had two defenders around him....on two consecutive plays! Worst of all you have sucked soo bad they have stopped making those Machine videos on youtube. You suck Sasha...please figure something out by the playoffs
Classic case of a player vastly overachieving, having a career year, getting a big contract, then dropping back down to his true skill level.
The thing is is that he progressed over his short career, it was a natural progression. He came into the league so young as a project you knew it would take time. He has always been called a gym rat and nobody has said anything has changed in that aspect. Slumps happen, even really long ones, but this is really bad. I really think he wants to play well but...idk
The game that added an extra million to each year of his contract... http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore;_ylt=AldJAYvI0_kla9DLRaqqDy0JPaB4?gid=2008061013
You know, I do feel bad for him because his season started off with that ankle fracture or w/e, but he should be out of this slump by now. He just has no confidence.
I can't hate Sasha for whatever reason, even though he has been horrible. You can tell he's frustrated inside with his play, unlike someone like... let's say Jordan, who I hate. Although I am pretty pissed off at the guy, at least like Mamba stated, we didn't sign him long term. He needs to step up, I dunno how, but he has to. Maybe take even more shots in practice, do something. We didn't pay him to defend, or run the offense, or rebound, or anything like that. All we paid him for was to hit shots when he's left open, and so far he hasn't done that. It's not asking for much. Also, Pau has been taking shots at our bench lately. He said something along the lines of the bench not getting it done, always giving up the lead. Obviously the main culprits are Jordy and Sasha. They have to play better, no excuses. I still feel like Sasha's play can be salvaged though, how ever crazy that sounds. I'm really rooting for him. Jordan I can say the exact opposite. Bench his ass for Shannon Brown.
He's useless right now. He's good for a couple of stupid fouls late on the shot clock, and that's it. Obviously a case of contract year.
Dear god Sasha you somehow have managed to do worse... 11 points in the last 5 games on 4/24 shooting...you are breakin my balls Sasha You are down a full 9% from last year on threes! 9%!!!! God dammit Sasha you better pull something out of your ass come playoff time!
