No.

Martin = no defense playing, always hurting, whining for the call, scoring all my points at the line after major acting.
And this is our franchise face?
No wonder we suck.
This was his year to step up after Ron Ron left.
While his number look efficient, they don’t tell the whole story (i.e. can’t effect crunch time in games with any regularity, can’t finish at rim, etc.)

If there’s one thing Kings management routinely does is overestimate talent and write bad contracts.

And he’s not paid like a franchise player. He is paid like Robin, not Batman. He is the best player on the team. That is not his fault.

Martin is one of the most efficient socrers in the league, and he does not need a lot of shots to be productive. That is an important quality for a “2nd banana” to have.

Martin is not the solution for this team. But he sure isn’t the problem. You have about $36 million tied up in Miller, Thomas, ‘Reef and S.Williams, and you’re sick of Martin?

Give me a break.

And to quote a great visionary of StR:

Umm – No.

I will say this, Kevin’s a young player, and needs to add something else to his game to separate him from the Michael Redd’s of the world. Either defense, rebounding, passing…something. But I’m willing to wait for him to get fully healthy before passing judgment that THIS Kevin Martin is the best Kevin Martin we’re going to see.

I will never get back the 30 seconds I spent reading this, and on my death bed, I shall curse thee.
