Wiz & Arenas... A Good Match?

[Bonds_25]

It's way too early to judge Kwame Brown. He was obviously not ready coming out of highschool like Lebron appears to be but give the kid a few more years.

you have a good point; it's way too early to judge this guy.

But, in a few more years, his contract will be up, and he'll get an even fatter contract.

we shall see if he has the heart and desire to play

Shawn "I eat at Krispy Kremes daily" Kemp got even fatter than his $100M contract.

Well we can judge him because he DID COME OUT OF HIGHSCHOOL rather than staying in school.

The only person he has to blame is himself. He could have gone to school or have made the jump. He made the jump and has done nothing so far.

The Wizards gave this guy a huge contract and the #1 pick because they fell for the "hype" of this guy and now when he becomes a free agent another team will try their luck with him and give him even more money.

Granted the guy is still young but they skip over guys who went to college and who were ready to play or who were more mature.

Even Tmac, Kobe, Garnett, and Amare showed some life in their first couple of seasons but this guy has showed me nothing to warrant his #1 pick status.

and let's not forget Kwame was picked by Michael "I wanna be a GM" Jordan himself!

lolol

berg, Lue is with the Magic now.

They don't like Juan Dixon at the point because his handle isn't all that great. He'll probably split time between the point and the 2.

Stack made no secret of the fact that he wanted to be the leader of the Wizards last year, and he couldn't do that with Jordan on the team. He's happy that Jordan and Collins are gone.

I like Arenas's intensity and attitude, I think he's a great fit with the Wiz and Eddie Jordan.

Kwame needs to step it up big time this year.

I don't think Jarvis Hayes is very good.

Stackhouse may yearn to be the big dog.

But, in the last playoffs he was in with Detroit, he played like a lame chihuahua -- couldn't hit a shot if his life depended on it.

To be the big dog, you've got to take and MAKE clutch shots
