You know whether anyone likes it or not Kwame is a beast inside no one can get good post up position on him and next to Shaq he is the strongest man inside just look when he’s healthy what he does to the opposing big man he makes them shoot a horrible percentage they cant back him down low and they always seem to get frustrated with him because they simply cant move him. I recall last year when we played Orlando with Dwight Howard who is supposed to be the manchild and 1 of the strongest players in the league and no doubt he is and is a great player I might add but Kwame was way to strong for him in the post and held him to just 1 dunk and completely manhandled him and outplayed him and held him to 7 points 7 rebounds 4 fouls in 39 minutes check the stats Phil was even quoted to saying after the game that Kwame was big for us tonite and I think Howard was quick to find out that he for once didnt have the strength advantage inside and that really bothered him out there. I know a lot of people here tend to hate Kwame cuz he’s not great offensively and does have terrible hands on offense but he’s got great hands on the defensive side of the ball especially against the gaurds on the pick and roll now Im not saying he is better than Bynum but he is much quicker on his feet and like it or not we need him because he is a great force with Bynum inside and together they pose a strong defensive tandem especially Kwame’s strength inside cuz no one I repeat no one moves him inside and outside his unlucky injuries he is our rock in the middle forget about his offense we dont need it were already 3rd in the league but pay attention and watch his defense when he’s out there and you’ll see that no big man pushes him around its always the other way around!!!!

Damn SliqRiq,

Try using some periods in your full page paragraphs next time.

Specially Kwame and Lamar. Lamar as the second option for this team needs to be aggressive and stop being so insecure about himself. If he wants to be an All Star he needs to play like one.
I am afraid he is going to be a liability for us when the playoffs starts. PJ please do some phycological work on this guy!

Good , All KWAME is , is just a body on the court so we have a 5 people. Because we all know he does nothing else

You are incorrect. Kwame is a good post up defender (Phil even went so far to proclaim Kwame as their best post up defender). Kwame may be horrific on the offensive end, but he is pretty valuable on the defensive end. If I had my choice between Kwame and Mihm, I would choose Kwame as Kwame is a better defender and a better rebounder.

Also, you should realize that Bynum can’t play 40+ minutes. He’s going to wear down as the season goes along and at times may get in foul trouble and God forbid Bynum could get injured. Kwame is needed to relieve him of those minutes.
