Adonal Foyle has a bad rep stemming from two things:</p> 1: The fact the Warriors saw fit to pay him insane money. Compared to Foyle, the magic are getting good value from Lewis. Not his fault. If my job wanna pay me $40 an hour not my problem, but i'd be dumb to say no huh?</p> 2: A player who was never meant to be more than a one dimensional player, being asked to fit a role his skill set and all round ability did not suit.</p> He has a game meant for a sluggish half court playoff team (i.e in detroit he would fit like a glove), only playing 20-28 min per game alongside an athletic rebounder. He chases the ball, he contests shots but nothing more. Is it his fault the Warriors were never a good fit? Sure he will never be a starter again but should he have been in the first place? He will find a role in this league and it will be for the only thing he does consistantly... alter shots. Don Nelson was probably the worst fit he could hope for but bring off the bench in the playoffs for a more 'traditional' style half court set team, playing the same zone that Detroit had with Wallace + Robinson in detroit circa 2002 and watch your view on him change.</p>
