I think Marquis Daniels is having a nice season..nothing great...but nobody expected anyhting great from him...although I do think hes going to be really good and get alot better.
I'll go with LeBron, zero 40 point games this year! Just hasn't played the same as he did last year. Kobe should not be on this list, he's getting his teammates more involved all the time this year.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I think Marquis Daniels is having a nice season..nothing great...but nobody expected anyhting great from him...although I do think hes going to be really good and get alot better.</div>Disagree, this guy should be starting at the 2 guard, considering he's their only legit 2 guard on the roster as of right now. Yet what he has done but get in trouble with the law and lose trust in Carlisle. He's inconsistent in the Pacers rotation and has disappointed Pacer and Mav fans who felt he was going to a better situation regarding minutes/play. He's just like he was in Dallas, and that's bad considering he had a better opportunity in Indy. Kirilenko, Mike James and Jameer Nelson took a turn from last year. James I kind of laugh at, as he was an option for Dallas in the offseason. Also, Jameer finished last year strong and sounded like he was ready to take this team and be a leader. Disappointed with his season so far. Same goes for Kirilenko, but his situation has been talked about already in General NBA.
IMO Andrei Kirilenko is by far the most disappointing player in the league. He used to average a double double in years past but this year has just been a complete disaster and he is averaging like 8 and 5 a game...horrendus.
Kirilenko and Diaw are the two that stand out the most to me. Kaman is another one that is notable. LeBron might not be doing as well, but the Cavs are in pretty good position right now. Kirilenko and Diaw are pretty needed on their teams right now (well, if they played like they did in previous years, it would be helpful, I mean).Antoine Walker has never really impressed me, so I don't consider him a disappointment.
Kirilenko is easily the most disappointing player in the NBA. He is having a horrible year this season.
Kirilenko. What happened? He has not been the same offensive player, and he is not posting the stats, and doing the all around things he did in past years.I just checked, and he decreased his PPG (He is only averaging a pathetic 9!), RPG, APG, FG%, blocks, steals....This is ridiculous. I know Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer are emerging, but there is no excuse for his decline in the defensive statistics at all. Maybe his injury has bothered him or something. IDK.

IDK.</div> It's a combination of injuries, loss of confidence and a new role in the offense. (That's what Jazz fans think). Bottom line, he got an $86 million dollar deal, the guy has to get his sh*t together. Period. I'm not concerned with the defensive stats that have gone down...Mehmet Okur is better this season and he/Boozer have been playing tougher defense taking rebounds/blocks away from Kirilenko, he's still been a dissapointment though...man..
Another one one is Elton Brand. This was suppose to be him and the Clippers year. But they have both disappointed. His ppg has gone down by 5.Chris Paul is also another. Injury has affected him, but he isnt making alot of noise as he did last year. Hes basicall duplicating last season, just without the hype..
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/gamelog?statsId=3930 Are you kidding me? Chris Paul's been awesome this season.
I don't know how you can say CP3 is a dissapointment this year. He's putting up even better numbers than last season. You have got to be kidding.
