That's basically what we need. This is a team with players who don't like to shoot. So adding a player who shoots too much can't be a real problem, lol. Oh, and remember during the last season he played with Phil Jackson as the head coach, he averaged 8.3 ppg and 5.0 rpg in 21 minutes, starting 38 times. Very good numbers. So much that Mitch renovated his contract.

Here's why : he's our only consistent shooter and with Kobe dble teamed he can have lots of easy shoots and score 15-20 a game. Then when opposite teams will understand, Kobe will have more space again. Use Kwame and Ronny as solid post defenders and rebounders coming from the bench, especially with Mihm in foul trouble. Plus for the Kobe haters, did u notice he took 29 shots and still have 9 assists? It's the proof it's not on Kobe, just about others steppin their game up and knock shots down 8)

I disagree. Brian Cook is an excellent offensive weapon, but Kwame is just stronger and a more effective presence on the court. Did you see how he shut down Yao last night? Honestly, Kwame isn't the beast I wanted him to be, but he's at least doing something. And if he learns to jam it home with 2 hands EVERY time like he did last night instead of tryna lay it in, he will be more than enough. I'm currently lovin' Cook. No way did I ever believe he'd provide this much in the beginning of the season...You can tell he knows his shit and he's gaining confidence with every game. But they need to bring Cook in off the bench, split his minutes with Kwame. I think when Mihm is back, we're gunna be GREAT...PeACe

Wassup with Medvedenko? I think he can score 8-10 ppg too.

Well, Medvedenko is supposedly out for the season. Dunno if he'll make it back in time for playoffs, but it would be a nice addition...

Yea. Originally he was tryna rehabilitate his injury without surgery...2 months passed by and he wasn't getting any better. They performed the surgery and said he'd be out for the season, maybe back in time for playoffs...PeACe
