the 2nd part of the quote you left unbolded:

I'm a heavy (MVP) candidate," he said. "I'm going to do what I do."

is what raises an eyebrow. sounds pretty me-first to me.
That was my reaction too. That said, I'd still trade our entire team for him.

The second part didn't need to bolded in my mind because of everything he said before. Now if he started out with the MVP talk fine. And no every team's focus is not to improve defensively and every team's goal is not to win 50-55gms. And every great player has lofty goals too bad we're accustomed to goals where the bar is set low.
That is true. Didn't Lebron say his goal was to become the wealthiest man in the world?


Yes and because of that Cleveland will be in the lottery LOL!


And how is it that Gilbert Arenas and Jamison's contract yr folds a tent on their season meanwhile we have to satisfy two blackholes on offense and at the same time provide opportunities for the other players at the redundant positions. There's only 1 ball.

I've never seen a player, GM, owner, mascot whoever come out and say the teams goal this year is to lose 50-55. And Gil said what esentially every player says: If we defend we'll be successful. Nothing in there about his personal commitment to defense or Eddie Jordan coming in with a whole new philosophy.

If he and Jamison do bicker and quarrel like the GS days, they won't win 40.

Yeah that's realistic they'll bicker like the GS days instead of holding to the pattern that has got to them to the playoffs the past few seasons. Uhhh some teams goals are just to improve from the previous yr. You think Seattle is saying right now our goal is to win 50-55gms? Some teams are looking at Championship or bust, Some teams just want to make the playoffs, Some teams want home court advantage in the first round, Some teams goals are to develop the youth and maybe look towards the draft again to improve their club. Hate to break it to you but every team's goal aren't the same as they approach the season.
