Feb. 6/09 - Raptors vs Hornets, originally uploaded by Raps Fan.
David West is a fine, fine player. He was number 35 on my list last year, and he's 35 on my list this year. The Hornets had a great 07-08 outing and just a so-so 08-09 season. West was consistent. He was a little less efficient, but he had a little less help up front for New Orleans and had to play more minutes. He's 29 this season, which means he's right smack dab in the middle of his prime. Hopefully the arrival of Emeka Okafor will help out a bit. Oak and West could be the most understated front court in the league, and one of the more potent. David West isn't a leading man, but he's very, very close. See you tomorrow. I gotta get some antibiotics.
