How Can Chappell Have Changed So Much?

billo, you can't play basketball at this level and expect to be wrapped in cotton wool. Its the nature of the business that injuries will occur. If Chappell is too busy taking care of his own body to risk injury, then he is adding an unfair burden on the rest of the team and adding to its lack of success, not to mention disgruntled fans and supporters. Sorry, this is not Phil's fault. In this day and age of cut throat competition, its about time the clubs adopted a pay for performance type contract. If you are paid a salary to put up 20 points per game, then you either achieve that or have your salary cut. Or worse still have yourself cut.

He was already slowing down in his last season with the Breakers where his numbers where:

PPG: 17.97
Fg%: 42%
3p%: 36%

And those the numbers were on one of the bottom teams in the league. They are nothing spectacular, especially considering he provides very little in other areas. I don't see how he was going to be any better this season considering he only got older. It was idiotic of the club to sign him before Newley decided what he was doing but the fact is, he would have not been a suitable import with or without Newley. It was clear after the first few games he wasn't going to cut it and the inability of the club to have the guts to make the correct decision has probably thrown away the season.
