| You think so, EH? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Well, I wish the Miltster lots of luck! He's going to need it playing for that team. __________________ "Government, even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one." | |||

| Y'all better not jump back on the Vinsanity bandwagon if he returns to his old form (ie. taking it to the hole and just rippin' the rims off). The bandwagon will be making no stops for the haters. Anyone trying to hop back on will get their ass run over! [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] BTW, here's a little predicition for all of you. Chris Bosh will win Rookie of the Year! Just remember where you heard it first. He's been tearing it up in summer league. __________________ I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death. -Nas | |||

| Chris Bosh for ROY? That skinny, little twig?!! [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] Now I know Shaolin is really intoxicated by the purple stuff. Even if Bosh puts up halfway decent numbers, there’s no way he is going to win the award over LeBron, Darko or Melo. It’s all about hype, baby! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Jump back on the Vinsanity bandwagon? Puh-lease! As if I ever got on. Isn’t it sad? Mr. Cah-tah has become an afterthought in just a few years. Can you help a brother? Maybe he should stick to working hard in the off-season than going up against ridiculous purple dinosaurs in Gatorade commercials. But, then again, even Barney could take Vince to the hole and SCORE!!! __________________ "Government, even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one." | |||

| Yes, I do. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] But I don’t think Stoudemire’s production was that big of a surprise. He already had an NBA body coming out of HS. Granted, a lot of people expected Ming to take ROY honors but Stevie Franchise didn’t pass the ball nearly enough to get him involved in the offense. Quote:
Besides, summer league stats usually don’t mean squat. Lonny Baxter is currently tearing it up in the Rocky Mountain Revue, averaging 25 ppg. Do I see him doing much this season? No way! The same thing happened with Zack Randolph last year and look what happened. ROY is largely based on playing time and opportunity. I don’t see Bosh surpassing a few of this year’s rookies in either category.

| The Indianapolis TV news was full of Pollard pictures last night. Pollard with blonde spikey hair; Pollard with short dark hair; Pollard looking like Abraham Lincoln. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] The CEO, Donny W. said they couldn't keep Brad Miller because they couldn't match the offers he received from Utah, Colorado, & Kings. Brad wanted to stay in Indiana, but he had better offers out west. We'll have to see what happens. I'm still upset that they traded Antonio Davis and Jalen Rose. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] | |||

| I agree Melo will probably put up the best numbers. But Lebron is going to be really good by mid-season, I wouldn't bet against him! I really haven't seen Bosh play much at all, so I won't give any opinion. He is probably too skinny to play down low much, so his outside game better be on. Isn't he only 210 lbs? -Will __________________ When people get the opportunity to talk about the real issues, it becomes clear how vacuous the present agenda is.

| Vince for Kobe?? [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] Don't worry. Vince is only taking Kobe's spot for the Olympic qualifier. I swear, I nearly ***** my pants when I read the headline. And about what I said about Melo not having enough talent around him. I might have to take that back. I was looking at the depth charts for NBA teams, and Denver isn't too bad (although their depth is kinda bad). DENVER NUGGETS: Starter Backup PG Andre Miller, Shammond Williams(?), Lorinza Harrington SG Rodney White, Vincent Yarbrough, Predrag Savovic SF Carmelo Anthony, Ryan Bowen, Donnell Harvey(?) PF Marcus Camby, Nikoloz Tskitishivili C Nene Hilario, Chris Anderson(?) And here's some teams out East that give me some hope: NEW JERSEY NETS Starter Backup PG Jason Kidd, Zoran Planinic SG Kerry Kittles, Lucious Harris SF Richard Jefferson, Rodney Rogers PF Kenyon Martin, Aaron Williams C Jason Collins, Alonzo Mourning, Dikembe Mutombo PHILADELPHIA 76ERS Starter Backup PG Eric Snow, John Salmons SG Allen Iverson, Greg Buckner SF Glenn Robinson, Aaron McKie PF Kenny Thomas, Sam Clancy C Derrick Coleman(?), Marc Jackson, Amal McCaskill WASHINGTON WIZARDS Starter Backup PG Gilbert Arenas, Juan Dixon, Steve Blake SG Larry Hughes, Jarvis Hayes SF Jerry Stackhouse, Jared Jeffries PF Kwame Brown, Christian Laettner C Brendan Haywood, Etan Thomas CHICAGO BULLS Starter Backup PG Jamal Crawford, Kirk Hinrich, Roger Mason, Jay Williams (hurt) SG Jalen Rose, Trenton Hassell SF Scottie Pippen, Donyell Marshall, Eddie Robinson, Tommy Smith PF Tyson Chandler, Marcus Fizer, Lonny Baxter, Mario Austin C Eddy Curry, Dalibor Bagaric CLEVELAND CAVALIERS Starter Backup PG LeBron James, Kevin Ollie SG Ricky Davis, Dajuan Wagner SF Darius Miles, Ira Newble, Jason Kapono PF Carlos Boozer, Chris Mihm C Zydrunas Ilgauskas, DaSagana Diop DETROIT PISTONS Starter Backup PG Chauncey Billups, Chucky Atkins SG Richard Hamilton, Carlos Delfino, Hubert Davis SF Tayshaun Prince, Corliss Williamson PF Darko Milicic, Zelijka Rebraca, Cliff Robinson C Ben Wallace, Mehmet Okur TORONTO RAPTORS (you know I had to add them [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]) Starter Backup PG Alvin Williams, Milt Palacio, Lindsey Hunter SG Vince Carter, Chris Jeffries SF Morris Peterson, Lamond Murray PF Jerome Williams, Chris Bosh, Michael Bradley C Antonio Davis, Jerome Moiso, Mengke Bateer, Mamadou N'diaye __________________ I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death. -Nas | |||

| Vince for Kobe? [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] The funny thing about that story is that Vince wasn’t the Olympic committee’s first or even second choice to replace Kobe on the roster. Instead, they asked two “rejects” (I use this term loosely) from last year’s disappointing Team USA squad, Shawn Marion and Paul Pierce, to play and they both turned down the offer. Wasn’t Vinsanity also an injury replacement on the 2000 Olympics squad? Damn! It’s kind of sad how much his stock has fallen in the eyes of many NBA fans and team officials. NBA.com has released its preseason rankings of all 29 teams. Check it out. The Raptors are ranked only at No. 26, four spots behind the Bulls. No respect, no respect at all! [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] I think whoever made these rankings is a little whack when it comes to putting Milwaukee at No. 20. With that roster, the Bucks are going to blow chunks next year. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them have the worst record in the league. No way are they better than half the teams they are ranked ahead.

| Cabarkapa for ROY! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Check out this article. It's hilarious to read about the competitive nature of some of the Western Conference GMs and their game of one-upsmanship. I especially laughed at the comment about R.C. Buford's "inappropriate gesture" to LA's Mitch Kupchak upon signing Robert Horry. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] This stuff is great!
