This dude still plays?

I guess you're no longer *puts on shades*...the Lone Wolf. YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

I think he would rather play for free anywhere else.

I'd say he had a great game. 25 points, 11 rebounds, 7 blocks, 5 assists, and 2 steals. He did everything tonight.

HOV you are forgetting the most important thing and that is called LEGACY. All of these players are striving to be one of the all time greatest, they would look like complete fools if they jumped from team to team, they want to be able to say I led or helped lead this franchise to that and thats where my identity is. Do you think Michael Jordan would have been as succesful, or at least half as well known as he is today if he jumped from team to team looking for rings (not that he needed to)? Every great player has an identity, for MJ its the Bulls, Magic its the Lakers, Duncan its the Spurs, Iverson its the Sixers, etc. Not to mention, one year deals are only guaranteed for one year (obviously). You can sign a 7 year deal, be guaranteed top dollar for every season, and not have to worry about the free agent process every summer. Going from team to team is a very stupid idea, and no offense I dont know how anyone could believe thats a good idea lol.

Wait.... "The best team in the NBA fluctuates year to year. This year, it's the Lakers." Not to sound like an A-Hole or be rude but i am determining that you do not watch the NBA nor do you know the definition of the word "fluctuate". 09-10 - Lakers are the suggested champions (W or W/O Artest they would probably be in this spot) 08-09 - Lakers win the championship. 07-08 - Lakers lose in the NBA Finals. How is that fluctuation? And to make what youre saying even less valid i will point out one more fact. In 11 years the Spurs and Lakers hold 8 titles (Before these two teams, in the 90s out of an 8 year time span the Bulls won 6). That is 3 they did not win, THREE! And they both did it by holding on to the same players year after year and developing them and their system. So in a 19 year time frame 3 teams have won a total of 14 titles. This is the exact opposite of fluctuation.
