I almost forgot about this gem. LOL

Has Ariza ever created his own shot even once in the playoffs??? His offensive contributions include standing at the three point line and taking open jumpers when Gasol and Kobe are doubled.

He is basically playing the Steve kerr role at 6'8". While he has hit the open jumpers he is hardly an offensive factor. And his defense on Anthony....

Not the point Mr. Shell. You said Delonte West was way better. I said they were about the same.

So far, Ariza has made at very least an equal impact but objectively speaking he has made more of an impact than Delonte West.
