Kings sign Aaron Brooks - Jimmer on way out?

I hate this argument. I think people need to start really factoring in where a player ends up when trying to assess how good a player is. Kawahi looked great last year because he played for Pop who used him perfectly. I guarantee if you switched Kawahi with Jimmer (putting Jimmer in SA for his rookie season) that people would have a lot different opinions on the two players. Not saying Jimmer would have been as good as Kawahi or that Kawahi would have been as bad as Jimmer, but a lot depends on situations, not just the player's skill level.

BTW - I'm completely against going after Jimmer.

That pretty much sums up a lot of what happens in the draft. It's more important what system you're placed in versus where you get drafted.

I wonder what Burks could accomplish in a Spurs system.......

I agree...just say no to Jimmer.

BTW, it's Kawhi not Kawahi. Don't feel bad, Charles Barkley called him "Kwame" Leanard...
