Some fans around here are a lil nuts. Faried is NY basketball. All ball, all hustle

That's what happens when a coach won't tolerate

My ish don't stink BS and decides to bench you for like 2 weeks

We'll see if he can continue where he left off in the summer

But yes he was always 1000times more valuable than Chumpert

Have a look at the other 30 games he's played this season- he's been pretty poor and is overpaid and has a bad attitude, but hey, he had one good game so lets trade for him!!!!!!

But not for shumpert..... and we're going to need a first round pick

I think you're thinking of that PF the Spurs drafted- something Blair? And it was his ACL's that had vanished, if I remember correctly. Can't remember what happened to him after the Spurs traded him.

yes

at the time i was a big shumpert fan but he just hasnt developed like i thought

I have to chalk a lot of his regression to the injury. His defense clearly took a hit, so we know his leg must be off. Remember, that guy had some awfully quick hands and that was a large part of the reason for steals. The other was his lateral motion and overall speed, I think that took a hit. I'm just supposing here...

The other part of his play might just be the mental part. Perhaps from the injury, to the Woodson thing, to a losing team???

A bit sad as he really could have been something really really special on the defensive end and was playing with confidence and well on offense. Just like Gallo, that one back injury really smacked his game, even when he was playing quite well, it was clear he was on a lower level post injury.

That said, I bet a chance to play on a contender would bring some of his A game back.
