bust lang talaga si AK this season. so much for the 5x5 cat potential... heck he hasn't had a 20 point game for god knows how long...

Altis: You can't ignore Shane, c'mon ;) hehe

Jazz probs? 60ppg of Yao-Mac :D

GO ROCKETS!!!!

This is like a young Clyde + Hakeem tandem...

AK is injured, in addition to that, the emergence of Boozer at the 4 really took out AK's game... Last year, he played 4 quite a bit and he's the only post-up player they have with Okur jacking shots from outside.

I don't think it's a lack of effort, if you see the games this season, he hardly touches the ball, and if it's lack of effort, there's no way that Jerry isn't benching him for Harpring/Millsap throughout the season. I think there's something wrong with AK's fit in the new Jazz lineup.

tabla na ang raptors and nets and with heat-bulls, its 74-85 with 11:30 mins left in the fourth quarter in favor of the bulls.

Even during his hayday at Boston, I don't consider Antoine Walker a top 50 talent, yeah he can do a bit of everything but he's a ball hog and he's very good at one thing... jacking up ill advised shots. Ever wondered why his stats plummeted? He went from being the #1 option to being the #3 or #4 option in the offense when he was traded.

As with AK47, I see a similar scenario although AK47 wasn't traded:
Not enough touches, with Boozer, Deron Williams, Okur dominating the ball, AK47's shot attempts have gone way way down, if you don't shoot you can't score and with the presence of Boozer, his rebouding numbers have dipped also.
