Pistons Excited About Kwame's Potential
Sep 19, 2008 4:06 PM EST
The Pistons coaching staff is excited about the potential of Kwame Brown heading into his first season with the team, according to Detroit News.
"I've been studying big men in this league since 1970 and I am going to tell you this, Kwame Brown, at his size, moves faster and with more control than any other guy that size that I can remember," assistant coach Dave Cowens said.
Detroit is hoping Brown will excel in a less-pressurized environment.
"He's been really good," Curry said. "If the kid was not the first pick in the draft, I wonder what everybody would say about him? I have a list of guys who make $6 million, $7 million a year who haven't done nearly as much as he's done in this league and we got this kid for $4 million."

Translation: Kwame sucks. We hope positive messages can make him at least not be a over the fact he sucks so bad.
Lakers' fans : another proof that the Gasol trade was a fair one...
i wouldnt mind having kwame
Look out: he has the potential to be better than Olowokandi.
Kwame still in the NBA?
In what respect Charlie?
The fact is Kwame doesn't suck. Kwame sucks because
1) He was the #1 draft pick
2) Lakers tried to make an offensive player out of him
3) He was getting paid $9 million
If you use Kwame only as a defensive role-player, he's actually a good defender. On offense, he can set picks and pick up the garbage points.
For $4 million, he's a steal.
Damn Kwame's getting 4 million for this weak . I wish I was 6'11
, Kwame's got baggage, but you think his stuff is weak? Wait until that Greek team finds out Josh Childress ain't worth the $20 million
If you were 6'11, you could be making REAL baller money like these overpaid dudes:
Malik Rose $7.6 million
Zach Randolph $14.7 million
Drew Gooden $7.1 million
Rasho Nesterovic $8.5 million
Jeff Foster $6.1 million
And the King Ballers of them all
Stephon Marbury $21 million
Jermaine O' Neal $21 million
Steve France $19.8 million
Weren't they excited about Nazr's too?
Yeah, I would assume so. Just like every team that signs a player they expect to be part of the rotation. Just like Dwyane Wade and the Heat were super excited about adding Ricky Davis. Or just like Denver when they signed Chucky Atkins. Or just like Mark Cuban and Dirk Nowitkzi when the Mavs traded for Jason Kidd. Or just like the Spurs when they signed Nick Van Exel.
Excited. Happy. Impressed. Optimistic. Fortunate. Whatever other bull descriptions. They'd be fools to say they settled for a player because they couldn't get the 20 guys they'd rather have than him.
How can a 7-year NBA veteran still be considered to have 'potential'?
Yeah, but I'm sure that's what the Blizzards (Bullets), Fakers and Grizz were saying too.
league better watch out
they start to tremble in fear
Kwame has returned
a little haiku for your ass
The word potential is something that schmos like Kwame never shed during their whole careers because they never reach it.
Pistons fans: Be afraid. Be very afraid.
Kwame Brown sucks everybody said he will be a star nr 1 draft pick but no he sucks...
O.K. who on the Pistons is going to make him cry. Kwame is just not a tough player and even if he only plays defense do you think he would step in front of Stephen Jackson going to the rim? Do you think he could stop the Coyote going to the rim?
Winner by TKO*.
* Once again, Brown failed to answer the bell.
I read that same article in 2001 and in 2005.
