The man shows toughness and stands behind his team 100%... lucky for Larry Sanders, West was legitimately being held back. Someone needs to let Sanders know how D. West spent his offseasons...

I love D West, my favorite Hornet of all time BY FAR. Season ticket holder (split 2 with my bro) and I drive in for one game all year, the Pacers game. I admit, I almost shed a tear on his tribute video. After next year, when we are contenders, I hope he returns and gets himself a championship.

Sanders shoulda came back out from the tunnel like Charlie Villanueva.

i like how near the end, Sanders can clearly get to West and lets his buddy act like he's holding him back to seem tough... he knew a mean left hook was waiting for him

Someone on Twitter (I think it was one of The Basketball Jones guys) made a comment on how fighting David West would be like fighting a 6'10" Ironman. Despite how funny it is, I definitely agree with it hahah
Edit - Found it:
@talkhoops David West has to be one of the least fightable dudes in the league. It'd be like fighting a 6'10" steelworker. -

Love the guy. The biggest loss of the season

I miss West too. He's doing ok in Indiana. He doesn't have to do as much as he did here. Great signing by the Pacers.

Sanders suspended 2 games without pay and West and Granger each fined $25K.

I don't miss the lack of defense. I do miss all the clutch shots.
-
04-20-2012, 08:26 PMnolaslim213Ditto. He did start to get it together when Monty took over, though. Which, really, is more of a testament to Monty because, hey, if you can get DWest to play some defense, then you deserve a freaking medal.Quote:

Not mad that D.west is gone ... Great player while with us. But it was time for us to move on. However, d-west isn't a guy I wouldn't want to fight. Sanders would have loss badly in a fist fight with dwest
-
04-20-2012, 08:34 PMKibnerAlright, theoretical super-hero fight theory-thing time: Is there anyone currently playing in the league that could take on West in a fight?Quote:

Have you seen his guns? -

D West would F**k him up

Does anyone think if Dwest would have knocked Sanders on his arse.....he would have said "AndOne"?

I can only think of this....I would just love to see Delonte challenge him over exclusive rights of the last name....they would be peeling tats off the floor for a week!

04-20-2012, 09:15 PMnolaslim213Lol, I know you were. I was joking too man.Quote:

Even if Sanders wouldve gotten the first 3 hits in on Dwest, i would still put my money on West!
West wouldve put him on the floor real quick! The guy walks up and down the floor in a boxing stance, praying for someone to take a shot at him haha. -
04-20-2012, 10:27 PMMr.McCoyMany of us have forgot that Mr.West didn't play defense.Quote:
