He's learning...a work in progress. And Alcindor (hated the name change) was pretty good.

What about Cassius Clay, Ron Artest, Lloyd Bernard Free, and one more - Bobby Moore?
Did you hate their name changes? I'm sure there were others that I am forgetting.

And Lattin is learning and came up big today. That guy was fired up!

I didn't like Cassius Clay's name change either, and it had NOTHING to do with their religious beliefs. I thought World B Free was silly. Don't recall Artest change. Don't know Bobby Moore. Hard for me to even articulate why I didn't like Alcindor's or Cassisus Clay's name change, but I truly didn't like it.

Bobby Moore = Ahmed Rashad


Ron Artest - Metta World Peace

Was Artest the punk that went into the stands to fight fans DURING an NBA game? Not sure honestly, but I haven't watched much NBA at all since then.

Yes, at least that is my recollection. And, hey maybe the fan deserved it?/////////


Just kidding

Lattin doesn't have that soft touch around the rim. He'll likely never be much of a scorer outside put backs and the occasional mid range jumper.

And it's hard to get put backs on 3's, especially when they're going in at nearly a 50% clip. Long shots, long rebounds.

I hope people read this, even the self professed 'in the know' people.

Although I do disagree about Lattin, he's shown flashes that have surprised. Whether he can be consistent or not, I have no clue.

Maybe he should've changed his name to "Metta Moron?" And I'm not kidding.
