Right.  Only former champions need apply.  God knows Wright should have won 
a title with the Clippers by now.  Frankly, I don't know Lorenzen Wright 
from Orville Wright, but I think that your attitude is a little harsh.  How 
many people in the league right now have "won anything"?

Don't know how serious you're being here, but I've got to say that, now that 
it is the norm for top prospects to come out of college "early", I'm pretty 
sick of hearing about "chronological rookie years".

If Gaston really is "too cheap to win", well it's just too terrible to think 
about.  He's had plenty of excuses until now, what with two franchise 
players dying and all, but if he loses a winning combination because of 
cheapness, I think the fans will turn on him in a hurry.
