Title: WTF NBA!
Post by: Swartzendruber on February 24, 2009, 08:03:40 PM
So I caught a "live look in" on ESPN2 of Portland v Houston.  LaMarcus Alderidge made a couple of nice shots.  I thought he went to UT so I bumped over to the dot com to check it out.  He did of course play at UT.  The interesting thing on espn the dot com is that they show the salary on the roster page.  LM makes 4.6, not to shabby.  So I scroll down the list and Portland has a player making 12.7 MILLION dollars.  Care to guess who on the blazers pulls down 12+??? 

I'll tell you.  Raef Lafrenz.  :hahano:  12.7 for 1.7 points 1.7 boards and 0.4 blocks a game.  Raef should be arrested for grand larceny.  Thats insane even for the NBA.

Someone on ESPN...can't remember the name, but it was the black guy that gets kinda riled up sometimes (think he used to have a show or still has one, don't really watch a ton of ESPN), called him a thief and said he'd almost certainly be released to free of cap room when his contract was up (which i think was at the end of this season).

So yeah...he sux

Stephen A?  It's pretty rare to see him in a calm state.  Or at least with relaxed eyebrows.

There was like 10 minutes where he was good.  He said the things everyone else was thinking.  Now its like he's become a caricature of himself and not a good one.  Nothing makes me change the station faster than Stephen A.

Aldridge is prob still in the contract from his rookie year, those have limits on how high they can be, thus the comparatively lower salary
