Re: The Forgotten STAR - Antoine "The Captain" Walker
dynastY sanoi:
Just....
Missäs on tälläisiä mielipiteitä esiintynyt? Ainakin mitä olen Miamin fanien kanssa pulikoinut ja puhellut sekä lukenut , niin olen saanut aivan toisenlaisen käsityksen. Kerro toki mistä löydän Miami-faneja , jotka ;
- Haluavat 'Toinen aloitukseen.
- Pitävät Rileyn 'Toinelle antamasta sopimuksesta ja sen pituudesta/rahamäärästä.
- Eivät revi housujaan melkeinpä joka kerta kun 'Captn laukaisee 4 pisteen heittojaan...
Naurettava jätkä. Kun ei ole perusteluja, heitetään joku vitun huono läppä. Itseäni lainatakseni:
Eiköhän se nyt olisi aika dynastynkin aika luopua noista purppurakeltaisista laseista ja aloittaa liigan seuraaminen hieman objektiivisemmalla ja kypsemmällä katseella, niin joku saattaisi jopa ottaa nuo kirjoittamasi lorut tosissaan. Kuten olet itse muistaakseni useamminkin sanonut, ei tuollainen vuoden vanhojen viestien kaivelu ja lainaaminen sekä niiden kommentointi aina yhtä kohteliaaseen tyyliisi "w00t! You go girl!" ole kovinkaan tyylikästä ja uskottavaa.
Ei siitä sen enempää, onneksi edes jotkut muut kuin sinä täällä pystyvät edes jollain asteella järkevään keskusteluun mikä lienee keskustelupalstan tarkoitus.
Tekisi mieleni vastata väitteisiisi omalla tyylilläsi, mutta en viitsi alentua. Ja sitten itse asiaan.
Walker May Begin To Start
17th February, 2006 - 3:36 am
Miami Herald - Antoine Walker has received mixed reviews at best from Heat fans this season, but the veteran forward has put together a steady string of games lately.
The latest one, a season-high-tying 26-point effort Wednesday in Orlando, could even open the possibility of Walker returning to the starting lineup as a small forward alongside Udonis Haslem and Shaquille O'Neal on the front line.
''I don't know,'' Heat coach Pat Riley said after the Heat's 110-100 win in Orlando. ``We were winning with James [Posey] in there, and the winning percentage is about the same, so we'll just have to see. But [Walker] does bring some more versatility; there's no doubt about it.''
Walker has started the past two games for Posey, who sat out with the flu and has started all but one game he has played in this season. But in the two games before sitting out, Posey went scoreless. Walker, meanwhile, has continued a trend of efficiency.
The most common complaint about Walker has been his shot selection, which has stayed with him his entire career. But in his past 20 games, this season, Walker, a career 41.5 percent shooter, is shooting 49.5 percent from the field.
As a career starter, Walker seems to be able to find better scoring opportunities with the starting unit. In his eight games as a starter this season, Walker is averaging 16.3 points, shooting 47.2 percent from the field and 37.7 percent from three-point range (both percentages would be better than any year in his career).

Tuolta löytyy lisää. Muutamia poimintoja siltä varalta, ettet viitsi tuota linkkiä vilkaistakaan.
"he has played exceptionally smart for several months now. his shot selection has been fantastic, he's been hustling, and he looks comfortable in his role."
"When he's not scoring, he's still helping us out on the court. Serious kudos to Toine..."
"The passing has been fantastic, he's looked aggressive but not stupid, and he's hustling and playing defense. He's doing everything I've asked him to do over long periods of time."
"As of late, Toine has earned my respect. His BBall IQ, which is what I questioned the most, has been awesome recently. He gets mad props from me..."
"I'm not missing Posey at all I can tell you that."
"Vince averages like 40 pts when Posey starts, Bron exploded once when Posey played, so whats the difference. Posey can't stop any of the best players and has had a hard time containing them most times."
"Ira said it best : "The thing about Walker is he's always working, even when he's not producing results.""
"Walker just fits better in the starting lineup, he has more hustle, quickness with the pass, ball movement, out of bonds pass. Of course he's erratic with his shots, but at least he's a threat when bringing the ball up."
"Walkers passing has been probably his greatest assets to this team. There have been numerous times that Walker has given some great outlet passes leading to fast breaks. I think Riley brought Antoine here for not only his ability to score but his versatility of his skills."
"I would like to see Toine stay in the starting lineup from now on."
"I actually listened to the Boston-Side of the Announcing(Radio with some guy and Cedric Maxwell) and they still Like Antoine."
"Antoine also became the 20th player in NBA History to nail 1,200 3pters."
Eiköhän tämä riitä todisteeksi siitä, että niin lehdistö kuin fanitkin ovat tajuamassa asian todellisen laidan. Edelliset kommentit noin kahden minuutin etsinnällä. Tarvittaessa lisää.
