Posey = non-factor. Our numbers, offensively and defensively were better without him. The problem was that the two guys that took over his minutes (T. Allen at the 2/3, Powe at the 4) got hurt late in the season.
Ariza = team defender that can't create his own shot yet. One on one he isn't anything special on D, and we'll benefit from Artest being able to guard the bigger bodies in this league. We got to the Finals with no one at SF in 2008, Ron will always be much better than those guys as well it is a different case.
You never answered me so I assume that my post got lost in the shuffle. So here's the bump. I dont realize this. Please tell me what Ariza is better at than Artest.
Problem with your saying is that if you're wrong and we show you this quote in september, after Lakers have won championship or whatever, you say that we're lame and give shit about wrong things.
