quote tommy 34

If I were orlando I would make more of a push for rashard over vince. Vince is really streaky and on some nights you'll get like a 3/15 from the field with him. But rashard lewis is more of a consistent jumpshooter.

but sadly he's injury prone

either way it will be a pleasure to go see them play

Well knicks get in a tie for the 8th spot with thrilling buzzerbeating win over the wizards. Man steve francis must be the happiest man alive right now because if we would've lost on a missed freethrow again it would have been hell for him.

Orlando is fine.

We aren't fine as long as Brian Hill is the coach. He's the most incompetent man I've ever seen in the sport.

I already told you how much of an idiot you are for saying that.

He did play a part in trading away Chris Webber for Penny Hardaway LOLZ. The Magic would've won multiple NBA titles with Shaq and C-Webb.

Shaq and Penny will always be better than Shaq and C-Webb if they teamed up. The Magic reached the finals and had the best record in 94 (or was it 95?) because of Shaq and Penny.

Chris Webber also never had Shaq on his team. Those two being on the same team would be unstoppable. Shaq is/was a beast in the low post and C-Webb is a great passing, high post forward. The two of them have styles of play that work very well together.

How many titles does Penny Hardaway have in the NBA or College?

Yeah moron that's what I thought. It works both ways dumbass. But the fact is that Chris Webber has improved every single team (except Philly) he has gone to. Golden State, Washington, Sacramento and Detroit all showed immediate improvement upon getting him. The Magic would not have gotten their asses kicked by Hakeem and the Rockets if they would have had Chris Webber instead of Penny. If you think otherwise then you're stupid.

Learn how to read dumb ass.

Edit: You are kidding how their guards burning you right? The Rockets scored mostly with their big men, their top two scorers were Hakeem, and Otis Thorpe. Their center and power forward. Four of their top six scorers were forwards or centers. Their guards were mainly used to get the ball to the big men. In fact only two of their guards had more then 10 points per game, and that was Vernon Maxwell (13.6) and Kenny Smith (11.6). So I seriously doubt you have any damn clue what you are talking about. The Rockets were all about their big guys and having Chris Webber would have helped immensely rather than not having a true power forward. Which was the big weakness of that team. They were rotating in a bunch of 6'8" guys to play power forward.

You do realize that Chris Webber is one of the best passing forwards ever right? He'd replace Penny perfectly at rushing to the lane and passing out. Why do you think Peja got so many wide open threes in Sacramento?

Also Horace Grant is SUCH a superior defender that he averaged less blocks and steals than Chris Weber for his career. C-Webb is a great post up defender, so much so that he has played Center many times through his career. Grant was not a superstar, he was a roleplayer at best. Chris Webber is a four time all-star, 1994 Rookie of the Year and a 22/10 guy through out his career.
