Stoudemire/Barbosa argument....

[cly2tw]

No, because NOBODY on this team respects Amare as a leader. Everyone respects him as a terrific basketball player, but that's where it ends. You can promote Amare to General, and he'll just be a General of one. Amare's all bark on this team and no bite.

It was a mistake giving him the role. He's 25. A bunch 30+ All-Stars and vets, which make up a significant bulk of this team, aren't going have their roost ruled by this kid. And the younger guys Diaw and Barbosa, came into their own when Amare wasn't around. D'antoni, Kerr, whoever, f'd-up giving him this status, and it really wouldn't surprise me if it's been a source of strife caused within this team.

He can the lead the team in points and shots taken, but he's not a leader on this team. Provided he's still with the franchise in future, he'll get his shot one day, but it's not today.

Do they even respect him as a basketball player? For what he is capable of doing and how important his role has to be for a championship run, this disrespect is the origin of the "chemistry" problme, isn't it? Showing all those disrespect is counter productive.

These Laker trolls should not be banned. I come to this site to complain about the Suns (I am on that side of the argument), but if I know that there are laker idiots on here then I feel the need to defend my team!!!

So my point is, if you want to eliminate the negativity, you should let these trolls post!

Also I should point out that none of my posts should ever be taken too seriously.

This board will shut down before it becomes something like the ESPN boards. That's a fact.

And what I mean by that is this entire board was created by Jim Skane to give Arizona Sports Fans a refuge from your typical message board. It was supposed to be a fun community, absent of trolls, and generally positive.

#3 is a failure on this board. So much so that the creator of the board has said he won't come in here anymore and wished me "good luck".

At least I can make sure #2 happens.
