what/who do you think is the biggest disappointment so far this year? im gonna take the easy answer and go with the craptacular Orlando Magic to start things off...

jasonresno · 02-16-2004, 11:45 AM

Orlando was supposed to be so much better, so yeah I will second that.

buclao · 02-16-2004, 12:16 PM

i'm gonna say the LA Lakers. You figure if you have 4 future hall of famers in your starting line-up you would win more games.

But in defense of the Lakers they have gotten hit with the injury bug hard.

AL9045 · 02-16-2004, 12:22 PM

Alonzo Mourning...the Nets before Frank...the Kandi man...Darko...Bulls...again...

Hrothgar · 02-16-2004, 01:16 PM

Im going to have to say the league in general. It's Craptastic!!!

it's not just 'in defense' ... it's the entire reason why they are struggling.

3 weeks ago, I would have named the New Jersey Nets as the biggest disappointment but they are back to form now. I'll just agree with Orlando

Phoenix Suns. With Amare, Marbury, and Marion, I and many others expected the Suns to make the playoffs this year. Instead, they've traded Marbury and are way back in last place in the West. They're a much bigger disappointment than Orlando in my opinion since Orlando is really just T-Mac.

The thing that you have to take into account with the Lakers is that they've got to have a lot more mental problems than everybody else. Their biggest star has a rape charge to worry about, and everybody else on the team has to worry about how that will affect him.

fearofmear · 02-16-2004, 08:59 PM

The Lakers or the Sixers.

orlando is a dissapointment... but hell t-mac rules ! doing off the backboard alley-oops for yourself in full trafic rule :-)

Biggest Dissapointment this year is easily the bulls, they have two first rounders in the front court and the next supposed shaq (eddie curry) yet they can't seen to manage to break into the playoffs in the leastern confrence. I also will put the celtics into that same mix. The worst GM of all time is DANNY AINGE, he is a true blue collard moron who has no idea what the hell is goin on.

EbolaVirus · 02-17-2004, 01:45 PM

The 76ers or Celtics...in fact, the entire Atlantic Division with the exception of New Jersey.

Everybody but NY

Millionaire (mostly black Men) players who whether they like it or not are role models for millions of kids, appear on camera with these oversized hats, 5 pound diamonds in their ears, throwback jersey and stocking caps.
This image is a bullseye for discrimination and usually ferments (good word choice) a certain behavior. This is not the image of the successful black man.

I just think it ridiculous that they cant present themselves professionally.
