Playa, one question. All of a sudden you are a half court guy? Didn't wae argue about whether NY should run ore or stay half court for all those years? What gives? I agree with your last 2 posts but I am suprised they come from you!
A running team has not won a ring since the Showtime Lakers.
exactly, but one thing playa is forgetting, Fortson is one step above Being a bum, playa is making him out to be bill russel starting the breaks with rebounds. Fortson is a better offensive rebound and that is only because he knows he can get extra shots that way. he is overestimating fortson..
HERE ARE THE FACTS TKF!
Still, Nelson believes that Fortson could be ``the key to the trade'' if the 6-8, 260-pound forward provides the inside force he has been in parts of six NBA seasons.
Fortson has averaged 17.5 rebounds per 48 minutes played in his career, and was fourth in the league with 11.7 rebounds a game two seasons ago. Fortson missed part of camp last fall after his father died, then played just 17 games after he returned because of injuries and conditioning problems, and what he called just a bad situation with the Warriors.
``I'm really motivated,'' said Fortson, going into the fourth year of a $38 million, seven-year deal. ``I might just explode the first game. I look forward to getting out there and playing again.''
