N*gga please.</div> Racial slurs are not permitted on this site, Check the JBB Guidelines next time before you post such an idiotic statement as this. And I dont appreciate it either, you dont know me, you dont know my race or anything. I know that word is thrown around today like it is nothing, but some people take offense to it, I am White/arabic/latin but I think there are other members on this forum that might take offense to that, so grow up or leave.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting og15:</div><div class="quote_post">Too many people have this blame it on Brand thing going on, please, it is definately not Brand's fault for the losing, please do some reasearch on the injuries and team situation and realize why the team actually lost, the team was 16-18 last season with their starting lineup playing, not even when they were healthy, ironically all those times Chris Wilcox their only factor off the bench in addition to Simmons last season was playing too . Anyways, if you think it's because he hasn't been a leader or any garbage like that, you're very misinformed. Brand is actually a good leader, he's a vocal guy on the court, and also leads by example with the way he plays, he's one of the only star players you'll see scrapping it out and battling on the floor. Also talking about leadership, thier are hardly an franchise players you'd really call "leaders", their's KG, Kidd, Shaq, Duncan, and some others, but Pierce isn't a leader, Kobe isn't a leader, Tmac isn't a leader, Yao isn't a leader, Iverson can will the team to wins, but isn't a leader like the others, Carter isn't a leader, many times the leader is not even the franchise player, like in Orlando when they were winning, it was Darrell Armstrong. Silky, Brand just signed his contract recently, it's not ending anytime soon, the Clippers have good young players this season because they're playing good team ball, but before the season all anyone would say is, the team is Brand and Maggette and then no one else.</div> / tell it like it is...wad up..peace.
