he's our worst player i swear to god he may be shooting a decent percentage from 3pt range...but he is a total ball hog and chucker. he takes the ball...and either turns it over, or takes an ugly shot. passing? its not a weak part of his game...its a non-existant part of his game. im sure this is pretty close to a discussion post-game him and coach mitchell have: coach - "hey lammond...you've been taking a lot of ill-advised, contested shots...you should think about passing the ball" murray - "passing? what do you mean?" coach - "you know...like, pass the ball to someone else...chris is usually a good option" murray - "no...i mean like...what does passing mean? i dont understand the word" coach - "pass...it means to release posession of the ball to another team mate" murray - "ARE YOU CRAZY!?....wait a sec...team?" right now id be happy to trade lammond for a 2nd round draft pick and some magic beans. and not real magic beans...the novelty kind
lol, that's good stuff What's that? Trade Lamond Murray to the Nets for a Trade exception? That's a good idea.

^^nah..cuz moiso got released by them already check out these numbers over the last 5 games from murray phylly - 6 shots, 6 mins, 0 ast boston - 5 shots 9 mins, 0 ast g-state - 8 shots, 13 mins, 0 ast milwaukee - 4 shots, 7 mins, 0 ast orlando - 4 shots, 20 mins, 1 ast obviously i dont expect him to avg 5 apg, but if he's taking that many shots, in those kinda of minutes...he should be passing the ball way more. obviously assists does not equal passing...but its clear that he's not passing the ball at all
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting dj_premium_plus:</div><div class="quote_post">^^nah..cuz moiso got released by them already</div> Actually they released him and signed him again to a 10-day contract to save money.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting DerfZ:</div><div class="quote_post">i doubt it^ gms arent supposed to read anytihng</div> From what I heard Chuck say one day, is that he checks around Raptors forums, to read what the fans think on certain topics.
Most people don't mind chuckers till they start to miss or hurt the team, I remember some saying he was doing good this season, even though he was the same just making his shots instead of bricking everything. If we can we should, he's cap relief though, if we can trade him for a second round pick I'd be happy.
Trade lammond to some team like ATL and for something and release milt and pickup troy bell! he is a good kid. trust me.
We could've picked up Troy Bell a while ago, definately isn't going to happen, I'd hope we did though, he wouldn't be expensive, and talent is talent, we can develop him into a backup PG or something. Anyways, Lammond to ATL for a second round pick.
You know what? I disagree to get rid of him....it's SO FUNNY every time Lamond gets the ball. My friends think i'm some kind of genius because everytime he gets the ball i say "watch, i bet lamond's gonna shoot it" and i get it right every single time. (But seriously...we should trade him)
Trade Lammond for who? His ill advised shots are noticed by anybody, and he defeinitely hneeds to be talked to, but he's not doing so much as to kill the team. yet.
