LOL....Corie Blount/Shawn Kemp/Dennis Rodman/Elden Campbell...All available, all more stable than Vin Baker. But this is something you'd expect from the Clippers...Remember, they signed an aging Glen Rice about 2 years ago, only to release him after less than a month. And what's going on with the Kerry Kittles situation? I know he was released from the Clippers, but is he done in the NBA?...Clippers are funny when it comes to decision-making.

theyre taking a gamble obviously. Maybe thats the idea tho. They dont have some storied past, so maybe theyre thinking this is there shot to get out of the gutter. Vin is obviously unstable...but at his best, he was FAR more skilled then any of those guys u named, at their best. For several years Vin Baker was actually a very versatile and strong player for the Sonics.
--- End quote ---
Vin Baker was greater than Shawn Kemp or Dennis Rodman at their best?...LOL, I don't think so. Vin Baker used to drink mouthwash to get drunk and avoid the smell of alcohol. He used to show up to practice reeking of moutwash. Maybe he shaped up, who knows, but he is not a player I'd take a chance on...Look at his stats for the past 5 years. Nothing impressive, he is a prime example of "falling off"...PeACe
--- End quote ---
if u dont know that Vin Baker had FAR, i mean FAR more skills then Kemp or Rodman at their bests....then you know even less about basketball then we all thought u did man. He was a VERY skilled player for a bigman. Not that he was really your conventional bigman. Kemp wasnt that skilled of a player. He was an all star, but his outside jumper was shit and he didnt really have many lowpost moves. he put up numbers based on athletisism. Vin Baker had a lot more elements to his game. So yes, he was definetely more skilled, and better then those guys. Problem is, they did it for longer. But for that stretch in his career, he was considered one of the better forwards in the game
--- End quote ---
Dude, I've watched Vin Baker in his prime...He was a beast on the boards and he had good mid-range, but his knowledge of the game was never that great. I'd take Dennis Rodman and Shawn Kemp (LMAO@Shawn Kemp not being skilled) in their prime any day over Vin Baker, people were throwing rants in Seattle when Kemp was traded for Baker...LMAO@less basketball knowledge than "we all" thought you did...Who's we all? I'm willing to bet that people on this board definitely think I'm much more knowledgable than you on the sport...I mean, you're not one of the useless posters, but I think I've touched on way more players and teams than you have in this section...PeACe
--- End quote ---
the only people who have cristicized my knowledge of basketball on here are you, and Mrs Kobe. Not exactly ones to speak on it lol. But youve had several people on here saying you dont know shit about basketball. You read, and repost stats....and you steal opinions from analysts, and pretend like theyre yours. But your actual knowledge of the game is really lacking. I know your young NIK, but i think you were old enough to watch Kemp in his prime. Problem is you might not have been old enough to understand things then. His skills were below par man. The only outside jumper he would ever take was along the baseling, and it was no further then 10 feet from the basket. And that was where he shot the best from outside the key, and it was still bad. He had no low post moves, could not handle the ball well, and couldnt shoot. Like i said, what he had....athletisism. He was loved cus he was the best "game dunker" in the NBA during his prime. He was exciting. But he was NEVER skilled. Ive played in the same gym with this dood before man...he sucks, believe me.
--- End quote ---
LMAO. Nobody has ever questioned my knowledge for basketball. You're just saying that cuz Tom said it after I offended him by dissing Pippen...LOL. Come on, come up with your own shit, people here who don't like me even give me props for knowing my shit. I don't even visit websites for stats etc. I check NBA.com after games to see box score and that's it...Quit actin' like you know something when you don't, of course Kemp didn't have a great shot, he was a PF/C...His range was 10-15 feet, and he was EXPLOSIVE, so much more than Vin Baker...I used to watch the Sonics when Payton and Kemp were running shit, Kemp was just unstoppable at times...And Dennis Rodman is just one of the greatests. LOL, you really don't think I'm one of the more knowledgable posters here when it comes to baskeball? Even if you're not able to admit it, I know that you know what's up deep down inside...Anyways, what are you arguing here? People in Seattle were going nuts when Kemp was traded for Baker...Do you really have a basis here?
--- End quote ---
Like i said, Kemp was a fan favorite in Seattle. Payton/Kemp...it WAS exciting like u said. But skillwise, Kemp was average at best. Yeah, a 10-15 foot jumper. That isnt what he HAD, just the furthest he could shoot. But it was inconsistent at best. And if youve watched tha guy play for any period of time youd know he also had no low post moves, and couldnt handle the ball well. Definetely no where near on Vin's level. Vin Baker was just obviously a more polished player then Kemp. Vin had good moves in the post, he could put the ball on the floor better, and he DEFINETELY had a better jumper (not even comparible). Rodman is one of the greatest, youre right. But im talking "skillwise". Rodmans skills were never considered very good. He was just an unbelievable hustle player.
--- End quote ---
You're telling me shit as if I don't know. Shawn Kemp had a very consistant 10-15 footer. That also was NOT the furthest he could shoot, Kemp was a 28% 3 point shooter on 119 attempts. Vin Baker was 21% on 181 attempts. On top of that, Kemp was a way better defender and brought so much more energy on both ends than Baker ever did. The point is, they are not so far off. It was actually quite hilarious that you got all excited and said I didn't know my shit for putting them on the same level...I bet if you opened a thread on ANY basketball board and asked "Who would you want in their prime, Kemp or Baker?" at least 75% would say Kemp...I just don't think there's much to argue about here. LOL. Based on what I've seen and heard, I'd currently much rather sign Shawn Kemp than Vin Baker...PeACe
--- End quote ---
75% would say Kemp? lol. If they know nothing about basketball. Like i said, i agreed Kemp was the far more popular player. That doesnt mean the more skilled. Bottom line, Kemp was NEVER a polished player. He was just an exciting one. 75% of people in a thread saying theyd take Kemp would only prove the obvious...people like highlight players more then skilled players, and youre no exception. Anyways, this got really boring.

Clippers signed him...They interviewed him after the Clipper loss in Dallas, and he seemed pretty enthusiastic, like he was ready to compete again...I only hope for the best, so dumbass idiots like E-Crazy need to shut their asses up...Also, Lakers in the playoffs>>>>Clippers in the playoffs...That's my prediction though, no need to throw uneducated and baseless rants...PeACe

LMAO @ touchy mcgee still mad at me! cant keep my name out your mouth now cant you? i really got to you that bad?
LMAO
haahhahahahaha
--- End quote ---
Actually, you addressed me first...LOL. Moron.
--- End quote ---
where did i put "NIK" anywhere in my post? lol, dumbass
Lock this thread now, i can see already your going to cry about this as well
--- End quote ---
You are the dumbest piece of shit ever. You said "All the bitter Laker fans are hating", which includes me, as I am a Laker fan...How moronic are you, seriously? Do you really think anyone gives a fuck about your deformed ass? I just think you are so incredibly stupid, sometimes it even amazes me and refreshes my memory on how dumb you really are...LOL
--- End quote ---
LMMFAO! why are you getting mad?...I never addressed you personally, yet you Love to address me....i didnt want to hear your bitch ass cry, thats why i left your name out of it, yet you always find an excuse to cry about something
hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahaha
--- End quote ---
LOL. You didn't feel like hearing from me? Correction, you didn't feel like getting sonned again. Nobody loves to address you, don't flatter yourself, people just think the things you say are extremely retarded, so it's hard to ignore.
--- End quote ---
correction, i did not feel like sonning you again, i feel sorry for your little cry baby ass, all you do is whine.....YOUR the only person who addresses me anyway, no one else really cares what i have to say, you on the other hand say things that would make a RSP classroom seem like harvard graduates, and everyone calls you on it and you cry and drag it out for 7 pages. stop for your sake, im trying to help you here......seriously touchy mcgee, i dont want you to kill yourself or anything.
--- End quote ---
LMAO, what does this have anything to do with what we're talking about? I dunno if you actually believe you possess intelligence or not, but you surely don't. We were talking about Vin Baker, you said that "bitter Laker fans are hating though they're 9 games back", I said that I only hope for the best for the Clippers so you need to shut your ass up...Then you start talking about some fantasy character you made up named touchy mcgiver...You're obviously very insecure, it shows in this thread. On top of that, you're very dumb and you never make good points, you just use your lame insults that have no relation to the topic...Just stop, unless you wanna talk about something other than your feelings about me...LOL
--- End quote ---
you idiot, your obviously insecure because you always need to reply back, even when your comments do not make no sense whatsoever. you addressed me, so i addressed your bitchyness, which is obvious, you cry and whine, and ruin threads, like your doing now...Touchy mcgee is you, because you obviously get very emotional everytime i post and "Son" your whiny crybaby ass....hahahahahaa.....and then you try to flip the script, but you never make sense whatsoever....
3 pages, I bet....you will never let this (whatever "this" is, i just called you a little bitch and you get butthurt) go because your an insecure little bitch, watch
hahahahahahahaha

and what do any of your "Insults" have to do with the topic?
--- End quote ---
LOL! Read my original post where I spoke of you in here. I was completely on-topic and spoke on a comment you made. Obviously, you took it personal and got offended. Otherwise there would be none of this "mcgiver" crap you think is so funny...
--- End quote ---
LMAO! You got all pesronal and decided to lash out at me for a comment i made about bitter laker fans, so u threw at tantrum, as always and decided to talk about me....jeez, we're going in circles again, you make no sense, just stop crying already, your worse than a bitch seriously
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, fuckin pussy....page three is coming up by the end of today....
--- End quote ---
I threw a tantrum? LOL. That's where your logic is flawed...I simply commented on your idiotic statements in a calm manner, no tantrums. That's where you got all butt hurt and defensive as usual, asking to get sonned. :-*
--- End quote ---
calm manner? LMAO! calling me a dumbass idiot has some feeling behind it, instead of just saying something so simple, you trying to get back at me, but again are failing to do so and exposing yourself as the little bitch you are, crying until you get your way....fuck, if your like this in real life too, i feel so bad for your parents.
--- End quote ---
If you're gunna say something dumb and idiotic, you're gunna get called on it...LOL. No need to cry about it. :'( :'( :'(
--- End quote ---
LMAO @ you trying to flip this around...hahahahahahahahahahahaha
im not your dad, you cannot cry on here and complain until you get your way...lol
hahahahahahaha
--- End quote ---
LOL, WTF? Dad? That's how you know you lost...Please start making sense and come up with logical shit if you wanna get sonned less. :-*
--- End quote ---
who u sonning? LMAO!
hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahaha

--- End quote ---

hahahahahahahahahaha, bitch
--- End quote ---
LOL. Why would you dedicate paragraphs to my personality and break down what you feel about me in detail? You are a desperate little bitch...All you have to do is find a reflection and you're sonned. 8)
