WTF happened to ....?

**INSIDER** · 01-14-2009, 11:06 AM

in this thread we can talk about the fall of certain players around the association. Just type "WTF happened to <insert name here>" and rant. it can be good, or bad.

i'll start....

WTF happened to Mike Miller?
all last year his name would come up on this board and we'd all salivate over how good he'd be in a raps uni.
the countless times i read "lets trade for Mike Miller" was enough to make my head spin.
and it was all warranted; the kid was good, really good. he could hit the 3, had good size, could rebound, had a great all around game.
in fact, last season he put up 17/7.
this season he can barely get double digits.
he's been dropped to the bench and for the month of January he's avg about 5 points per game.
how the hell did this happen?
other than Al Jeffeson, theres no one in minny that should be stealing his touches. that being said, a big body like Al's in the paint should have openned up more shots for him... its mind boggling.
WTF happened to this guy?

What about Odom... he's putting up 8.9/6 this year. Though I still want him

Ugo Ferst · 01-14-2009, 11:11 AM

Mike Miller was always an overrated scrub and i never wanted him here, but seriously, what happened to MoPete, does he even touch the floor anymore?

**INSIDER** · 01-14-2009, 11:12 AM

i prepared a knuckle sandwich for you.

i dunno about that Ugo...
overrated scrubs dont put up 19/8 with 3 three pointers a game... which he did 2 seasons ago.

and speaking of Mo, he's lost his starter spot.
when that happens you know its trouble. after he lost his starting job here, his stats went rock bottom.

WTF happened to Allen Iverson?

2007: 26.4 PPG | 7.1 APG
2008: 17.8 PPG | 5.5 APG

New team and system? Age?

**INSIDER** · 01-14-2009, 12:05 PM

WTF happened to Hakim Warrick????

in a good way!

he's scored in doubl digits in his last 12 straight games.
averaging 16 ppg over that span.

we shouldve traded for him when we had the chance.
shit!

We all knew this was coming - Insider and his mancrush for Hakim

Odom was never the one to put up monster numbers. He has skills that make people salivate, but he;s never really been able to put up monster numbers like everyone aspires him to.

MangoKidHoops · 01-14-2009, 12:33 PM

On a lesser note - what happened to Nick Collison? He was on the verge of breaking out - I remember he was picked for the US Select team a few years ago to compete against the Tournament of Americas USA team - and then this year there's a drop in minutes, rebounds, everything.

MangoKidHoops · 01-14-2009, 12:34 PM

And what happened to Luol Deng? This was a guy the Bulls didn't want to part with to get Kobe Bryant and now, what's happened to him? He was on the verge of being a star and everything is down across the board.

Krazy Ivan · 01-14-2009, 12:37 PM

Age happened to him and grind of a professional league... that's what happened... just ask McGrady about it.

**INSIDER** · 01-14-2009, 12:42 PM

you know it Hoops.
i heart Warrick.

but excellent call on Deng.
this guy has completely fallen off the map.
he was on the verge of being a bonafide superstar, and now you dont hear his name ever.
i know he was injured a bit this season, so that may be a reason, but still.

Ugo Ferst · 01-14-2009, 12:45 PM

Whatever happened to Eddy Curry? You should all apply for the opening for a new driver.

I heard that he, for whatever reason, really likes long drives along the coast...
