    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (drake24 @ Jan 13 2007, 11:11 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Chris Webber is the biggest I can think of personally. I mean, sure you have Francis and Peja, guys like that who are also big ones, but Webber was an all-star and a beast a couple years back. In his last year with the Kings he was getting about 21/10 per game. Then he has that knee problem and he heads out for Philly, and now, just take a look at this picture from NBA.com:[​IMG]No Webber! To go from a "Top-Dog," to knee problem, to contract buy-out, to not even on the NBA.com Players list. That is a serious drop in stock.</div>There is no Webber because he is not on an NBA team. [​IMG] Free Agents don't get profiles.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BALLAHOLLIC? @ Jan 13 2007, 12:13 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Finley is a key contributer off the Spurs bench, his stock has fallen off much. He's still a good shooter and veteran leader. He's 33-34 years old, you can't expect him to be the same player he was a few years ago.</div>Tony, even if he is a pretty big contributor off of the Spurs bench, before he came to SA, he was one of the best players on the Mavericks team. Last year, he was in contention somewhat for 6th man of the year, and this year, his scoring his down along with his percentages. If you watch alot of Spurs game, you will definitely see a big difference. But hey, what do you expect? Players stocks are going to drop as you get older.One that hasnt been mentioned is Desmond Mason. Last year, he didnt start for alot of games, he is always getting injured, and he is very inconsistent. He used to be considered a guy with a load of potential, but he has fallen in to that class of guys who don't fill their potential...

To go from an All-Star type player to not even being on the NBA.com players list in the middle of the season. I would call that a drop in stock, wouldn't you?

    But his point is still valid. Webber isnt even on a team right now, in the middle of an NBA season. That shows that his stock has dropped dramatically.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (valo35 @ Jan 13 2007, 09:02 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>I would say that no ones stock has fallen off more than Steve Francis's after he got traded from Houston. He is now struggling to even start, when he used to be one of the bright rising stars in the NBA.</div>Agreed. I guess I didn't mention him because his stock as fallen so much I forgot he is still under contract with an NBA team.

    Carlos Arroyo was the starting PG of the Jazz a few years ago, then he was traded to the Pistons, and then the Magic, and is on the bench.

His all around game doesn't seem to be a factor this year. He can't seem to get it together.</div>He's been injured, thats why. He was still recovering from off-season problems early this season...got hurt...missed 10 games...then broke his hand last month and has not played in any games this month...this season is a wash...

    Steve Francis, Gary Payton, and Chris Webber. They used to be superstars. #1 scoring options, great players. Now they're getting bought out, getting injured, and/or playing like 7th and 8th men. Age has a lot to do with this though.

His team might not have done so well, but his stock is definately not declining. Since he's in Denver now, and they are playoff bound, and the media attention he is getting....His stock is very high right now...</div>Ginger Jesus isn't talking only about stats. Ginger Jesus is talking about other factors. Ginger Jesus has recently heard people talking more about his bad attitude and selfish play more than Ginger Jesus has heard in some time.

As far as I here no Sixers players said anything bad about AI since he left. Boykins was saying good stuff about AI when he was in Denver. But it was not just talk, because once he got traded first game with the Bucks he was talking good about AI still. He said, and others on the Denver Nuggets have said they always new what he bring on the court, but they never though he be such a leader. Game on ESPN commentator said AI called AI over when Diawara was not doing good, and just told him to not worry about it, and it all be fine or some stuff like that. He is being a leader in Denver looks like Denver players are happy with AI. And no Sixers players have said anything bad about him since he left. And selfish how? Freakin Boykins scored 20 + 9 out of the 10 games since AI came to Denver. Blake freakin scored 25 with AI. AI is selfish why is he passing to bums like Diawara? So unless you here it from actually the players what you listening to I have no idea?
