4 guard lineup ftw.

Hold on a minute! Somebody voted S-Jax at 5th in MVP ballot.

Are you ****ing kidding me?

 

[WALL-e]

I love Durant....but c'mon.

 

[peternorth]

cmon wat?

 

[WALL-e]

Had him behind 2 others.

Whoever had Manu with a 5th vote has a short memory and whoever had S Jax did it for the lulz.

Er who?

1 Other,

I was mistaken.

I had LeCrab, Dwight, KD, Kobe.

Call me bias if you wish but Dwight effects games every night defensively. Poor shooting night....no worries 7 blocks 16 boards. Can't be said for the guards when they jack it no end. No homo, no bias.

I still think KD had the better season overall.

Dwight's start was pretty slow, then hit his stride. KD has led a massive turnaround in OKC, so that's always going to be tough.

I picked Howard as MVP pre-season but I knew early on my pick was no good.

if howard could stop fouling so much he'd be higher in the mvp calculations

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

When does the MIP get announced?

I guess it depends when James White can get a flight over?

I hate you Stern!

 

[Vegas.]

What are you talking about man? He will just jump over, so long as he doesn't get fouled by the volcanic ash on his way.

 

[WALL-e]

Most Free Throw Attempts?

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

He'd still finish strong with either hand.

That was announced like a week ago. Brooks romped it home.

All Defensive teams out today.

Was Kobe worthy of First Team?

Kobe makes fifth straight NBA all-defensive team


NEW YORK (AP)—Kobe Bryant is on the NBA all-defensive first team for the fifth straight year.
Boston Celtics guard Rajon Rondo made the first team for the first time, earning the second-most points behind the league’s defensive player of the year, Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard.

Charlotte Bobcats forward Gerald Wallace also made the team for the first time, with the Cleveland Cavaliers’ LeBron James making it for the second straight year.
The league’s coaches vote on the team.
The second team consists of San Antonio Spurs center Tim Duncan, guards Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat and Thabo Sefolosha of the Oklahoma City Thunder, and forwards Josh Smith of the Atlanta Hawks and Antawn Jamison of the Cavaliers.

Very nice work.

 

[peternorth]

yeah i also question kobe in the NBAAD team

 

[hamG]

If they are gonna name Varejao why not Mario West as well? I'm sure there are a couple of great stoppers in Slamball too. Nothing against the man, just it seems you don't have to be a starter or play much game time to be named tis all.

He played 28+ mpg, it's hardly chump change. And he's the best defensive PnR big since Garnett had knees, so I'd say it's more than fair.

Which is probably why he won the award for defense by a landslide.

Bogut made all-NBA 3rd team. Interesting because Duncan is listed as a C in the all-D team, while he's a forward in the all-NBA 3rd team.

and isnt he listed as a forward for all star balloting?

horses for courses (stern for stern if you will).

how is it that kevvy durant (PNs selection over oden in the draft) was not a unanimous selection?

 

[Dez!]

Call me crazy but I'd back the All NBA 3rd team to beat the All NBA 2nd team.

 

[Vegas.]

All 2nd team isn't exactly full of hard nosed defenders! Impossible to tell though, all of those teams would need at least 3 balls in play. Watching that All 1st team play would be hilarious, Dwight wouldn't touch it except for O boards.
