Big Dog

Did anyone see The Best Damn Sports Show? George Karl was on and he was asked several times why he made the trade. Each time Karl responded with the same points, one of which included the need for beter defense. I was waiting for Salley or SASmith to ask Karl if he thought Kukoc was a better defensive player than GRob, of course they let the insult slide by each time. What was even better was the highlights they showed of GRob when they were talking about him. On one clip, OUR Big Dog stormed the lane catching up to the offensive player driving to the hoop and swatted the ball out of play like he was a defensive freak ala Ben Wallace. Does he really beleive that their team D and wins will improve by trading away someone of GRob's talent?

Judging by stats his defense wasn't too TERRIBLE until the

knee injury started to show.Does he really believe taking out

one player will make that much difference?

If I was BigDog I would come with a vengeance as a defender next year.

The good thing is too many of our players have reasons to play in 6th gear next year.
