Back to this...
With Pau I don't even think it's a lack of effort. He just looks like his time has passed.
I know that his past successes don't mean anything for what the Lakers are trying to accomplish now, and if a player is on the team he is expected to contribute.
If he's not contributing, I expect a backlash. But if it's a star who helped us win championships... I expect the backlash to be different than it were for Kwame Brown, who never did anything of importance for us.
Yes. But this is what I'm talking about... I feel like a lot of fans don't feel this way anymore.
I guess I can't blame fans if they do want to treat him poorly though, because ever since mid 2011 he hasn't been able to shoulder the load like a star. It's just still hard for me to fathom personally.

well its a combination of factors, not having the same drive after winning multiple championships (this happens to a lot of players: dirk, wade, shaq), getting older/slower, dealing with coaching changes that eventually moved him from low block to the elbow.
all these factors make it harder and harder for him to get motivated/hungry to go out and dominate which will lead to a lack of effort. he's past his prime and will never be that pau again but i think the problem is that he has accepted that he will never be that guy again while guys like kobe/MJ will believe that they are the best player on the floor till the day they die
real fans will always have a deep appreciation for what he has done for our franchise but regardless of what fans think of his cumulative contributions to the team we will still comment on when he looks soft and/or isnt playing well.
thats just how i feel at least, sure there are fans that dont understand how much he contributed to our titles but theres nothing we can do about that

it was a compromise during the lockout negotiations
dont need an amnesty if we dont sign players to dumb contracts
should never reward teams for making dumb decisions

And every thread.
We don't go for the whole "Keep your mouth open before a **** falls in" rebuttal.

sucks to be you (team that signed the player)
its a business and every business deal has a risk factor
as a business, a nba franchise has to take responsibility for when a poor decision is made
rather than cry about it like dan gilbert

Ino but the fans are the ones whk suffer watching a mediocre team that cant improve due to salary limits.
This game is entertainment, for the fans. Everything done should be because of the fans.
