That's raw noise factor right there

Too bad I was face first in a toilet stall shortly afterwards. Oh boy the drunken ole days.

Goodbye Mr Clutch

The guy had great range and a mean crossover.

I'm disappointed that we didn't win a championship with him and that he wasn't voted to play in an all-star game. Despite his decline, Mike was definitely a breath of fresh air considering the fact that we got him in exchange for J-will. I hope he does better in Atlanta. Good luck Mike!

Kinda odd

Now that Mike's gone Artest says he doesn't want to be traded.

We'll always remember where we were when he hit that shot (except Pookey of course).

Thanks for the memories Mike

I've got so many great memories watching Mike play. While it's time to move, Mike will be missed, and he will always be a King to me. Long live the Kings.

Wait....Why is everybody clapping? Everyone around me is clapping.... I guess I should be clapping too... GO LAKERS!!! I hate living in So Cal

Biggups the one like Bibby!

We love you Mike.
All those clutch corner 3's.
All those clutch shots in general.
Best of luck.

Isn't it funny

that we appreciate our players more when they get traded. We actually remember what they did for us. However, while they were still on the team, we always complained on how they never rebounded, defended, and the like. I don't know if I'll feel the same once Artest gets traded, if ever he does get traded, but Mike was part of our glory days. I'm pretty sure I'll miss Peja more than Artest though.

lol

I would just like to point out that I never mentioned any one's name :D I was merely stating an observation :P

by kingme on Feb 18, 2008 9:43 AM PST up reply actions

Name Mention...

No mentioning Otis was all me, we have had some friendly jousting in the past, all in fun. I havent heard from him in a while.. :)

This

might bring him out in the open. He's still probably celebrating the Bibby trade

by kingme on Feb 18, 2008 10:31 AM PST up reply actions

Not celebrating too much

He was my daughter's favorite player, so I have to temper my enthusiasm. :)

It has been a while!

But I've been around, where you been ridnour?? ;)

Nah, I appreciate what Bibby offered the team, but he's a guy that fills a need on a good team, but becomes exposed a bit as a go-to guy on a bad team.

When he is making his shot he can be extremely important to a squad. Unfortunately, whether it was due to injuries or conditioning (putting on too much muscle last year), he's lost his ability to make shots consistently. And if he doesn't have that, well he doesn't give you a whole lot else.

I agree 100%

which is why I hope he'd do better in Atlanta. He can be the 4th option there if he wants (although 3rd option sounds about right) and, at the same time, mentor Acie Law (especially in shooting the ball)

by kingme on Feb 18, 2008 1:16 PM PST up reply actions

WOO HOO

Yup hes probably been doing the Macarena non stop since the trade was announced (bad visual?)...he might be sleeping or collapsed in a chair somewhere.....
