    I understand that he is a good shooter but what makes me mad is that Coach Ford went to him for clutch playes instead of AI.

    If you watched around the last 10 games of the season, you would understand what B-22 is saying. I think I can recall a game at Memphis, where we were down by 2 and Ford had Korver get the ball off an inbound from Salmons (I think). and Korver dropped the ball because he has poor ball control. We ended up losing the game. (Can't blame the whole game on Korver though.) This scenario goes along with Bank's quote...
    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">He's a DEADLY 3Pt shooter.</div>

    It is quite true, yet quite sad. Korver stood out at Creighton because of his shooting, not his overrall 'game'. He isn't a good rebounder, passer, dribbler, or defender. Nothing to blame him for, he is a rookie, and may just improve his game in the next couple seasons. I don't expect Korver to develop into an amazing all-around player like some NBA stars, but atleast he should be decent in all areas of his game.

    i'd just like to remind you guys that Korver did get HACKED like a biatch by bo outlaw if i remember correctly in that memphis game. terrible non-call by the ref. Korver was put in there because he was a good free throw shooter and memphis was going to foul cause they're were down with little time left on the clock.

    B-22 , when did coach ford ever go to Kover for the clutch plays over Iverson??

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting DaAnswer3:</div><div class="quote_post">1 Iverson
    2 Dalembert
    3 Snow
    4 Salmons
    5 Robinson

    7 Thomas
    8 Green

    Anyone who keeps Korver doesn't know what they are talking about imo. He can't play D he doesn't drive the ball all he does is put up 3's. He isn't worth keeping. An I would say he shouldn't be on the roster next year.</div>
    And I say that he is just a rookie, and is worth keeping just because of his terrific shooting. Other parts of the game will get better eventually, to let Korver go would be one of the dumbest things Billy has done.

    And I would also say that you need to resize your graphics, they are violating the JBB guidelines.

    Well of course then, down three, couple of seconds left, of course a three point shooter is going to take it. Allen can't shoot three's to save his life. If we were down 1, or 2 points, then it would have gone to Allen, because he can get in the paint easily.

    Even though this has nothing to do with protecting individual players on the roster, I don't know, it could have been a clean turnover or a clean foul. I could not tell myself even when I watched it live and then on replay again and again. I wouldn't be suprised that Outlaw hacked Korver having the strength and size advantage to get that ball out of his hands, but I would also not be suprised if Korver turned the ball over because of poor ball handling skills I have noticed he has in the past. But then again, like Sasha said "he is just a rookie" which is obviously a true factor.

    the bottom line is the following,:

    trade derrick coleman, way too old and fat, cant do anytihng for the sixers, todd mccolluch, is he alive? where the hell was he during the whole saeson? just another grant hill but with lower skill....receiving payment without sweating, best job of the world...... zendal hamilton, not a good player at all................. how the hell did he get into the NBA? the sixers need to get an all star center, dalember is good, but not that powerful when it comes to O, he plays good D, Jim O[Brien isnt going to make a big change on the sixers from last season, he isnt a master type coach, i say we neeed to get EMEKA OAKFOR, and a good power forward.

    All Glenn Robinson does is get injured and take up cap room. He is aging and it would be wise not to protect him.

    What do you expect? Your violating the guidlines. Your lucky Sasha actually said something. You know what, just forget what Sasha said. And just go around posting with that oversized avatar and see how long you will last before a mod/admin suspend your account. Like I said Sasha was just doing your a favor, and it would'nt hurt if you just minimzied the size of your avatar.
