I predict T-Mac will never get out of the 1st round.
Seems like some of you haven't monitored West's development. Each season he has improved and added to his game. He can knock down the jumper consistently out to 18ft, drive the ball, and has some post game although it needs work, as does his passing. He's good on the boards and a decent defender.
He can still improve on his D and rebounding, but it's hard to fault the guy's individual offensive game.
West is very good, but he's not underrated. He is just a bad matchup for the Spurs. If the Spurs had a long 3/athletic 4 to guard him, he wouldn't go off for 30 everytime he played the Spurs.
Remind me why we have Tim Duncan on our team.
Don't give me the prone to fouls B.S.
Manu is the most underrated player in the NBA, West's voted for the All star team this year, How can you say he's underrated?
I like how all this talk of West being underrated actually makes him OVERrated.
Hey, you've got to give the guy credit - he can play (oh look, he even got an allstar appearance! but no, that isn't enough. he's still underrated!), but stop calling him underrated. It's like Ben Wallace being called underrated to the point where he was being overrated.
I've said it before the series. If West and Peja have a great series Spurs will lose.
Pau Gasol is considered a center not a PF. KG isn't what he used to be. I'm not saying West is the best PF in the league, not by a long shot, but in a year or two things will be different. West's only problem is that he always comes out ice cold. He'll miss 3-5 straight shots, then go on a spree and end up with 20-30 pts in the game.
No, Pau is a POWER FORWARD who is skilled enough to play center (just like tim Duncan who has played MORE MINUTES at center the past 4 years than he has at pf). Once Bynum comes back Pau goes back to 4.
Pau > West
This is true.
