I was a little bit surprised when I saw Draymond Green throw a lob pass to David West that actually resulted in a dunk for West, rather than West landing in a heap on the hardwood and having to be taken off in a wheelchair Paul Pierce style. Then I realized, why should I be…

David West 15 Points/5 Assists Full Highlights (3/29/2017)
David West has been a very good, but never elite, power forward for his entire career. He has entered the “blatant ring-chasing” stage of his career that many faded, ringless stars pursue, but that shouldn’t diminish his past accomplishments. Or, if it does diminish his past accomplishments, it should only diminish them a little bit….

When an NBA player gets old, that gives him license to start chasing rings. If you know you only have a few years left before your body disintegrates, you don’t want to be part of a rebuilding effort. And you definitely don’t want to be part of a mediocre eighth seed team. You want to…

David West is the third best player on a contender, yet there is almost no hype around him. Is it because he’s kinda old? Or has an unathletic, below-the-rim game? Maybe his stupid beard is to blame?

Why don’t you guys like David West? He’s good! He has post moves. Don’t you like post moves? Well you’re gonna learn to like him because DownToBuck has just acquired a cherry picker. And you know what I’m currently doing in it? I’m sitting in it. It’s raised to its highest extent. And I’m not…

David West is a nice player. He plays pretty good defense, though he likes to play the “tough guy” role a little too vigorously. He has a smooth jumper and some good post moves. One thing he doesn’t have, however, is fans. I’m a fan of his, so when I heard that David West would…
Read MoreDavid West Triple Double (14 Pts, 12 Rbs, 10 Asts) Full Highlights (1/12/2013)
The Triple-Double is an alluring temptress. Andray Blatche can attest to that. There are many tales of stat-padding to acquire one. Even Michael Jordan was guilty of such acts. So all the more reason to respect David West. West racked up his 10th and final assist on a nice outlet to Lance Stephenson for a…
