Kwame Brown Continues To Be A Walking Punchline

It’s safe to say that Kwame Brown hasn’t exactly lived up to expectations as a former number one pick. It’s also safe to say that Kwame himself probably knows it.

Maybe that’s why he took this in stride.

Did the Lakers send a championship ring to Kwame Brown?

“What?” Brown responded when asked the question Tuesday night.

Did you get a ring from the Lakers?

“Man, you know the answer to that,” Brown said, smiling.

“Why should I get one? I wasn’t here.”

True, but Brown played a role in the Lakers winning the NBA championship last season.

After all, Brown was the trade bait the Lakers used to acquire Pau Gasol, who played a big role in the Lakers’ championship.

You know it’s bad when out of town reporters are going out of their way to remind you that your only NBA claim to fame is being traded for Pau Gasol.
