Credit?
He tanked his team every year for several years.. Personally I think the 
weighted lottery is a huge problem. There is just a huge temptation to tank 
built in there. 
But heck I guess the GM of the Clips deserves credit for the way they built 
their team as well. LOL.

I think a team like the Lakers who have stayed pretty good for years now 
deserves credit. They were in finals every decade that I have been 
alive....thats deserves credit.

Oh and one more thing...

We should talk about Baker...damn he can't rebound and thats what we need.

Like I said last year we needed another guy like Battie not some "low post" 
guy. 
A guy like Marcus Camby, Keon Clark or Ben Wallace would have been a nice 
fit. I think we could have found that guy in the draft even..  Seattle robbed 
us blind.

Heck even a guy like Aaron Williams on the Nets there would be a huge help 
for us.
We need a quick, fairly big, very strong guy who can rebound/block 
shots...and after the big Vin Baker trade we still need the same thing.
