He is going to be a very good player for a long time, and will go down as one of the best second bananas ever. He doesn't seem to care about scoring, he doesn't want the pressure of being "the guy" but he does everything (shooting, defense, rebounding, passing, playing smart basketball) very well. Together, he and Durant will be awesome in a couple years. Agree completely about Jeff Green.

What about when he's jacking up 65 shots a night and calling himself Black Mamba? Exactly. (Sorry but even Spellcheck's work ethic can't break my dislike of all things Kobe). Sure, you say that now.

Afflalo has emulated Bryant's workout regimen throughout the season. He is always the first person on the court before a game. Before the last Pistons home game (vs. Clippers), he was out there putting up shots before 4 p.m. -- tip-off was 8 p.m. During training camp, he would arrive at the practice facility every day at 7 a.m., three hours before practice started. He's always the lasy one to leave, too. He's very driven, this guy, much like his guy Kobe. Thus, the nickname." http://info.detnews.com/redesign/blogs/pistonsblog/index.cfm?CFID=7928465&CFTOKEN=65052500 I'm gaining more and more respect for Arron Afflalo “Rasheed Wallace and others have started calling Arron Afflalo “Showbe,” a riff on Afflalo’s favorite player Kobe Bryant.
