why is this board always so obsessed with udonis haslem?

[ReeceGaines 0]

i swear, for the past 3 years, every offseason, every thread, everyone is desperate to get haslem

 

this is a marginal starter who has a PER of 12-13ish, per 36 minutes, does about 12/8; i guess you guys are fascinated by the fact he can hit a 15 foot jumper; so can Tony Battie

 

in fact, Battie basically is Haslem

 

this guy isnt that great; you guys treat him like an allstar

 

my theory is, people watched that Heat finals, and thats all they know of him;

I can't take you seriously after you said we should trade Rashard for T-Mac.

lol...its not exactly always about your per game averages are , its where your contributions fit in to the machine that is team play. and, my personal belief states that what he provides would be the oil in our machine...he fits right in.

I'm not obsessed with him, but I would definitely welcome him to my Magic...

[Catman 380]

Haslem as backup PF would be awesome. He is far more tenacious then Battie. Battie is very soft now compared to his former self.

Keith Bogans checks his closet at night for Udonis Haslem...

 

That is how hard-nosed he is. Amirite?

Its the same people who loved the Brian Cook and Evans trade for Ariza... I wouldnt take them to seriously. Or the people a few years back who wanted to sign Foyle to a big contract, thank God Golden State had a few screws loose to offer him that big contract...

don't forget, Haslem did go to UF and Orlando is full of UF fans, so many like him around for that reason among others

[Live or Die Magic 383]

The population base around here watched Haslem for four years at Florida. I'm pretty sure they weren't introduced to Haslem during the Finals farce in '06.

[TreyTime 3]

They like him cause he went to Florida, which is the exact reason why I DON'T like him. War chant *****es.

[NittanyBuc 757]

we're all guilty of it..... okay well, all of us that watch college basketball and have a favorite team/player. For example, when Talor Battle from Penn State comes to the NBA, I'll root for him and pull for his team
