Disappointment
- Thread starter kupman
- Start date
This year, Peja hands down. Contract years bring high expectations.
My expectations for Brad have diminished consistently since he joined the team but really started falling when Vlade left and he became the poor man's Vlade. As much as has been said about his great hands, passing, outside shooting or whatever it was his play against Shaq that brought him here, or so I thought.

Mean?
What's mean is when our All-Star Small Forward isn't going to be here in a year and plays everynight with a seemingly consistant lack of aggression and passion. At least tonight Corliss might get the minutes that he's deserved all year...he's never been the same since hurting his back right out of college but when it comes right down to it he busts his butt on every play! I'd rather see him get a good 25-30 mins a night and hustle and bang on every posession than watch Peja casually jack-up another brick. Man, I even named my dog after him too. Is it too late name my 3-year old doggie BONZI????----go Sac!

Serbian has nothing to with it, unless you count the opinion that Europeans play a soft game and Peja's game seems to be ultra soft. I just thought it sounded kind-of catchy with the alliteration in the name. As far as the "Indiana hick" goes, Brad kind of prides himself on this image a little, plus I am hick from the country myself.
I actually really like both of these guys and their respective games and I am one of the few people that would like to see Peja as a lifetime King. However, their seasons so far have been very dissappointing and I believe the primary reasons we struggle as a team.

In order to be disapointed, you have to have expectations not met. I had very low expectations from Peja so he can't disapoint me.
Brad Miller on the other hand is disapointing. The numbers are starting to show.
03-04 10.1 RPG 1.21 BPG 2.0 TO 14.1 PPG
04-05 9.3 RPG 1.19 BPG 1.4 TO 15.6 PPG
