    Most Improved Player?

    Nah, he has improved but you can't give the MVP award and the most improved award to the same player. I do believe that he deserves the MVP though.

    Do you think the Spurs will run out of gas?

    What in the world are you talking about man? The Spurs have been limiting their star players' minutes more than any other team in the league. The Big 3 (the only true "old" players on team) all have averages below 30 minutes per game and have been well rested and routinely taken games off as...

    Does Anyone Go to Their Local Basketball Games?

    I used to go when I went to school but now I don't. Our team was never really any good. As for my college team, I do watch them from time to time. But I'm really not what you call a big "fan" of the team. I just like to root for them because of school pride basically.

    Fantasy Playoffs

    Yeah no kidding. Fantasy playoffs are always so up in the air. Both for football and for basketball. You never know if players will begin to be rested for their own postseason or not. As for me, I usually draft the Spurs big 3, but towards the end of the season, Coach Pop begins the rest...

    Most Improved Player?

    I was wondering who you all thought was deserving of the most improved player of the year award for this season. For me, I think that the award has to go to Goran Dragic. The dude has made the Suns a legit team and really stepped up his level of play once Bledsoe went down. Who do you guys'...

    Who will face off in the NBA Finals this 2014?

    Yeah there is nothing wrong with predicting a matchup that you want to see, I just doubt that OKC can make it. Durant has gotten a bit better since the first time they played each other in the Finals, but I believe that the Thunder have gotten worse. Without Harden, the Thunder have become a...

    Best International Born NBA Player?

    Although Dirk is one of my favorite international players of all time, I think that the honor has to go to Hakeem. There has never been a more versatile big man in the post in my opinion. And who here hasn't tried to convert the "dream shake" at least once in their lives?

    Fantasy Playoffs

    ^great job man As for that league that you lost in, did you forget to do some pickups leading into the final days or were your pickups like Hawes simply not producing? It's funny how the end of the season can be so wishy-washy. Some players can be relied on throughout the year and then all of...

    Who is the greatest big man in the NBA?

    It depends on what you define as "great". Keep in mind, these are just my opinions... Physical dominating strength - Shaq Best footwork/team-first personality - Duncan Championships - Russell Best scorer - Kareem All around offense/defense - Hakeem

    March Madness

    Yikes, I'm not sure if you saw but Duke lost in the first game against Mercer. That Mercer team was pretty unreal. I guess that is why they call it March Madness...

    Can the Miami Heat win 3 in a row?

    Lol what? The Pacers are in the East so they can't "give the Heat a run for their money in the Finals". And I'm sorry, but the Trail Blazers are simply not good enough to make it to the Finals. They've fallen off a cliff in the second half of the season. Why are you so quick to not mention...

    What Team Is Your Team's Rivals?

    For my Spurs, our rivals are currently the Mavs and the Thunder. We used to have a pretty heated rivalry between the Suns and the Lakers, but for obvious reasons, those rivalries are basically dead. I guess the Grizz are kinda our rivals, too since they beat us as the 8 seed a few years back...

    Paul George declining?

    Yeah, he is in a slump but his numbers have actually improved since last year. He is shooting better, is averaging 4 more points than last year (21.8 ppg), and is getting to the line more. I feel that he will get through it although his shooting has looked atrocious lately.

    Can the Miami Heat win 3 in a row?

    You completely disagree? How can you say that Lebron and Wade will step up their games in the playoffs but Granger will not do so, likewise? You do know that the Pacers have a better record than the Heat, right? And you are preaching to the choir, I know that the East is weak, but that...

    What happened to Allen Iverson?

    When did I say that he didn't produce on the court? You can't tell me that Iverson had one of the best work ethics in the NBA, the dude was notorious for not working on his game and basically slacking off in practice. His skill allowed him to take it easy in practices when he was young, but as...

    What's with the t-shirts?

    They are trying to market the shirts to the average fan for merchandise sells. The NBA figures that people would be more willing to wear a shirt than a jersey, but to me, they look pretty awful on players. Some (Lebron) feels that it messes with their shot, so they might go out the window soon.

    Who will face off in the NBA Finals this 2014?

    I've got the Indiana Pacers going up against the San Antonio Spurs. I feel that the Pacers have finally surpassed the Heat and will have homecourt against them this time around. I feel that the series will be hard fought and a pivotal game 7 will be won in Indi. As for the West, I disagree...

    What happened to Allen Iverson?

    Bingo! He got a bit lazy and never really took his game to the next level once he went to Denver. He was always fantastic to watch, but as he got older, he got more adamant about never having a bench role which caused him to go overseas. He had quite an ego on him, that's for sure.

    Can the Miami Heat win 3 in a row?

    They really aren't "sure" to be in the finals again. The Pacers almost beat them last year and it can be argued that Indiana got better this season and the Heat took a step back. I'm not saying the Heat are going to lose, but I know that the series is not a given either way. It will be great...

    March Madness

    There has been quite a bit of madness already! Mercer beating Duke has got to be the surprise of the tournament so far. It is so weird seeing how Duke, UNC, and Kansas are already out. At least my Louisville pick is still alive...
