He's the starting PF of the Lakers, with no decent players who can take his role. Plus he's playing for the best coach ever, with the best player in the NBA, and Jabbar worked with him during the preseason. More chance than this one? Anyway say it to Tex. He's the one unhappy about Odom and Brown. My opinion i know doesnt mean shit to you. But at least take his one more seriously.

So you admit that you expect a slow learner, Kwame Brown, to learn an extremely complex offense, the triangle, in 8 games and instantly become an offensive force? Patience is virtue...We only had him for 8 games. I think we can wait a little more than that.

Man yesterday Cook started for us. 17 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assist, 1 block, 1 steal, 0 turnover.
He might be less skilled than Brown (he is), but he's more ready to play for us. That's my opinion.
I'm not saying he's a better player, but i'd like to see Brown coming from the bench, with less pressure.
I just want him to enter from the bench and to play hard defence when we need that.

I was just about too mention that.I said a couple weeks ago "don;t be surprised if B.Cook Starts at the PF".
Having Kwame out there is like playing 5 on 4,He does nothing for this team.With Cook @ least Defences have too pay attention to him b/c he has a jumpshot.B.Cook also plays Team Defence,He's always taking a Charge 8) He might be a little soft when it comes too Defending players 1 0n 1 & rebounding but still..Cook>>>Kwame.
And Cook also hustles,i love that shit,he seems to always know where the ball is at 8) I hope Kwame doesn't Start a Nother game.

It's up to Cook now. He gotta continue making performances like this one and i think this could be a good option.
