Is it time to trade smush?

1 for 9...what happened from the stat line it looks like we had solid contributions point wise. I know Odom got into foul trouble early but he still managed 7/12 for 17 points. We shouldnt have lost this game.

Right. Let's trade our PG, cus we don't really have any others. I mean, if someone wanted to include him in a trade that brought back Duhon or Watson, by all means. He's the best player we have for the position. Don't trade him yet. He plays 40+ minutes for a reason.

Smush doesn't raise up a hand to defend. He's always trying to go for a steal. That's his problem. I don't care who we trade for this team is sub 500 as is. We just have to see that. This Laker team cannot be great because we always find stupid ways to lose. IF we're good one end we're horrible in the other. Having a good shooting night then we can't rebound. We always find some way to lose. Shake this roster up and get new life in here. QUICK!!!!

If we cant play defense then we are done for the season

The problem is defense. But, I don't get how we were in a small lineup for the 2nd half. No Kwame to at least get rebounds. Phil messed up big time in that regard. Notice how once kwame left everyone was laying it up on us.

no.

he needs to be put on the bench for a more experienced starter who likes to drive to the hoop more.

Nah, they need to trade for a PG and get him on the bench...

I agree with that. We need someone that will drive it in.

Smush needs to be introduced to the simple layup. All those drives with wild missed dunks this season could have been converted with simple layups.

Supa · Star Player Joined: 08 Dec 2004 Posts: 2210

He's looking more and more like a one year rental as our starter. We can only hope that's the case and we have a real PG next season, not another NBDL standout that's bounced around the league.

man, there's no point, cant trade smush for anything, hope phil and company can start yelling at him to play some damn D, seriously, smush is the reason we are losing all these close ones...

I don't think he is going to defend any better than he his. Half a season and he still can't defend. He can't defend. That's what he has been given and that's what he always will be. A NBDL player that goes for steals and tries to dunk.

So which is it? Smush or Chucky?

Lay off Smush. If you have beef with anyone it should be on the bigs tonight. And George for not putting a body on Johnson to get that big tip. BIG MISTAKE.

SMUSH CAN PLAY, LAY OFF.

But isn't Smush total garbage? :roll: If he's so bad, why would anyone else want him?
