    Chicago is so team oriented and have such a great hustling defensive unit, how are they not winning this? Their only weak spot IMO is @ back-up SG, but Brewer, Arenas, & Iggy can play all those minutes with Ross or Earl Watson playing SF or PG.

    I find 5 problems with your "team oriented....great hustling defensive unit" comment: Arenas, Watson, Williams, Mohammed, Ely.

    Watson's a solid defender. He's underrated.

    Funny story how Watson and Mohammed are both good players, with Mohammed contributing to the Spurs before, another team oriented team. Marcus Williams and Melvin Ely will barely play in a playoff rotation. Arenas is also a great player, and is one of the most dominant scorers in the NBA. He fits in nice with Dalembert, Lee, Iggy, & Brewer, so there is no problem there.

    So? Just because someone played on the Spurs, doesn't make them team oriented.

    Mohammed's not all that good, either

    Mohammed is plenty good enough to be a backup C and perform well in his limited minutes

    I didn't set my lineup, so it's whatever whoever made it out to be. I see Mohammed as my #2 at PF, too, for a few minutes a game. Big Baby gets the same kind of minutes he got for Boston.

    My SFs are Iggy for ~40 minutes and Brewer the other 8.

    Nice input man, you ever consider being an analyst for ESPN? Because they always utter complete non-sense and just talk for the hell of it too....

    He did a pretty good job playing in a team oriented enviroment before and he is a good back-up, but it's just another observation/opinion you don't care about.

    How is that non-sense? It's a clear straw man. You almost always revert to straw man. Just because I say something you don't like/agree with doesn't make it nonsense.

    Where was a he a good team oriented player before the Spurs?

    Atlanta?
    the pathetic Knicks?

    Dumars couldn't wait to find someone to take Nazr off of his hands once he saw how useless he was in their system.

    The guy said there was 5 problems with my comment, then named off 5 players. I actually responded to someone's post and addressed what he thought was the problems. Then you march into this thread acting like a douche, (which is nothing new for you) not even putting in any input, just attacking me.

    Those pathetic Knicks made the playoffs in 03-04 when they traded for him at midseason, where he averaged 9.1 points on 56% shooting with 7.7 rebounds with an occasional block in 24 minutes. Every time he's been given a chance, he has contributed effectively, so he's not a bad player to come off the bench. After he was moved to Charlotte, he did just fine and even when he got minutes in Detroit, he did good. You also pointed out another thing, in "their system", not every team runs Detroit's system. Just because one organization has an issue with a player doesn't me he's a problem where ever he goes.

    There's no straw man here. Ad homenim perhaps.

    "They aren't good team oriented, defensive hustling players"

    "No, Watson and Mohammad are good players, and Arenas is a dominant scorer."
