Kevin Martin Appreciation Thread

[Stiffy_18]

Yeah, yeah, I do wear rose coloured glasses but this boy has been playing at a very high level this year. He has followed on from a great 2nd half of the season last year and has taken his game to yet another level this year. Five games into the season he is proving himself to be a great scorer in the league. He also scored a game winner against the Bulls

23.4ppg, .542 FG, .333 3PT, .917 FT, 4.6rpg, 1.8apg, 1.8spg, 38.6mpg.

The only weakness is his 2.4 turnovers per game but he has been getting better at it.

By the end of the season he will be known as one of the best SGs in the league.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T

 

[eathb]

He's the best player in my dream team at the moment lol

 

[lebron]

I picked him up in both my fantasy leagues before the season, after he went undrafted.

Genuine star. The kid fills Bonzi's shoes and then some.

 

[Knowledge]

I'd have his babies for sure.

Carlos Delfino > Martin.

Carlos Delfino > Martin.

Blasphemy.

Quite timely of you to bring that up though, as they played eachother today.

Martin: 30 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 10-16 FG, 8-8 FT.

Delfino: 8 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 2-6 FG, 2-2 FT.

Not a good day on the Basketball board for you today Drummond.

You don't say! I was actually keeping an eye on the box score the entire game.

Anyway you poor misguided soul, Delfino is a gun and you insert him in the starting lineup like Mrs Martin and you'll find he would put up similar, if not dwarfing numbers.

Hmmm, and what are you basing this on? Potential? Because his 6.6 PPG 3.2 RPG and 0.6 APG stats this season say otherwise. There are a lot of guys in the NBA with potential, be patient and he might get there one day, or alternatively he may turn out like Darko, you don't want that now do you?

Now kids, see what happens when you get dropped on the head as a baby. Your thinking powers are all ********ed up

that much is a given Drummond

 

[peternorth]

K MART is a flat out scorer. Occupies one of my fantasy teams

 

[Stiffy_18]

I see this kid is still not getting the respect he deserves. He was left off the All-Star Ballot despite his exceptional season so far.

Yet more proof that All-Star Ballots are a piss take

Steady Stiff,

Drummonds arseclown impersonations aside - allstar is a bit much isn't it?

I don't expect him to make the all-star game this year. Maybe in a couple of years time but at least he deserved to be on the ballot as a leading scorer of a team thats 4-2

 

[Portmanteau]

All-star ballot is done before the season...

 

[Stiffy_18]

All-star ballot is done before the season...

Then some should have followed his 2nd half of the season last year

I mean Juan Dixon was named on the ballot. Juan freaking Dixon

 

[AndSmithMustScore]

Perhaps there's a limit as to how many players can be on the all-star ballot from each team?

If that were the case he'd have started behind Miller,Bibby and Artest.

 

[Buddhy]

He dominated again today.

 

[AndSmithMustScore]

Today was a very good fantasy day for my team with Martin and Bibby.

 

[Stiffy_18]

AndSmithMustScore, I am pretty sure there is no limit since I remember all 5 pistons being on the ballot a couple of years ago. Besides, Kings had Bibby, Artest, Miller and Abdur Rahim on the ballot this year.

Buddhy, Kevin Martin almost always dominates

Great scorer and developing into being more than just a scorer.

 

[Stiffy_18]

Despite Kings losing to the Warriors today, Martin continued his strong form with another 26 point game on 7/15 shooting to go along with 8 rebounds.

Kidd and Kevin have got me a total of 140 points in my Ultimate Fantasy Commisioner (which is 1000x better than Yahoo).

Kevin was my 8th round pick and is a dam good sleeper.

why is it 1000x better than Yahoo?

^ Updates scores faster, has live scoring date (even in live games) default score setting is better, has trades, trading block, free agents signing. Also has fantasy news "Who's hot and who's not" and is actually made by the NBA
