BlackHawkDown Posted September 4, 2002 Report Share Posted September 4, 2002 A lot of people havwe extolled the play of Vlade Divac. But I just heard he Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyman3 Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 I say we can all agree that hes in the TOP 10 centers RITE NOW. Not too physical but a SMART PLAYER! Even with the flops, shoot... if it works, then HEY- keep DOING THEM. He must be taking lessons from REGGIE MILLER But other than that, how can u not like a starting center with these numbers... 11.1 ppg, 8.40 rpg, 3.7 apg, 1.18 bpg shooting at .472 pretty good numbers for a starting center these days... ALSO... what i like about him is the fact that hes not on the decline. Age seems to be hitting all the once good centers like Olajuwan, Ewing, Mutombo, Robinson... but if u look at Divacs numbers, hes pretty consistant!

That is what distgust me so much nowadays a starting center that doesn't average even 10rpg and 2 - 3 bpg is called 2nd in the league that is disgusting. Deke on a bad day does more than than. I will give Vlade credit he is a good passer for a center but I still say he is a sloppy old drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyman3 Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 slopy old drunk? whats up with ur hatin on Divac? Is it because he doesnt have the game of a SHAQ ONEAL? Instead of dunking on everyone, he goes for the layup. like the kobe bryant SPRITE COMMERICAL SAYS "2 points is 2 points!" Thats like me saying shAQ is a sloppy old drunk just because he cant HIT A D@MN FREETHROW. I remember Kobe Bryant saying something like this once... "Everyone has a weakness in their game... EVERYONE" Even MJ? response= "Everyone!.... (pause)... What i try to do is hide my weaknesses and discover all the other players' weaknesses." every player has a whole in their game... i kinda agree with what Bryant was talking about. I think MJ did the best job in the NBA of hiding his weakness- at first it was the shooting, then later its hard to tell what his weakness was, and now its his age/athleticism BACK TO MY POINT- Dont hate on DIVAC just beause he doesnt dunk on every play...
