NBA Mid Season Awards/Predictions!
« on: January 14, 2009, 01:29:15 PM »
OK fellas we are fat approaching the halfway mark of the season and its time to put our ass on the line and make our predictions of who is/isnt making the playoffs and see were we at with the awards at the midway point weve all been taking a load of smack for the first half of the season and it will be interesting to see what we predicted no and what actually happens at the end of the season. obviousley trades and injuries and unforseen circumstances play a major role but hindsight is a beuitful thing.

Ok then il set the ball rolling:

PLAYOFFS
--------------

EAST
1) Cleveland
2) Boston
3) Orlando
4) Detroit
5) Atlanta
6) Philadelphia
7) Toronto
8) Miami

WEST
1) LA Lakers
2) New Orleans
3) Denver
4) San Antonio
5) Phoenix
6) Utah
7) Dallas
8) Houston

EAST FINALS: Cleveland V Orlando WINNER: Cleveland
WEST FINALS: LA Lakers V San Antonio WINNER: LA Lakers
CHAMPIONSHP: LA Lakers

MVP: Lebron James....If the criteria for an MVP is for the individual numbers and team success then i think one would struggle to argue with this selection. lebron is doing it all this year and finally has the squad to gain the votes of the media with the 50+ win team which seems to be the status quo for MVP's now.
ROOKIE: OJ Mayo.....I think alot of people knew he'd be a good scorer in this league but his been far better then i expected especially with his FG%. granted this could tail off in the second half of the season due to the rookie wall but the guy has came in and made an immediate impact, one cant argue with that.
6TH MAN......Jason Terry, some nights the guy looks like a shoe in for the all star game. The guy i just a dynamite scorer.

MVP: Lebron James...I despise the criterea they use for MVP. My MVP would obviously be Kobe, followed by Wade in 2nd place, but the NBA uses a strange system and I hate it.
ROOKIE: Derrick Rose...Overall, the most exceptional rookie out of this exceptional rookie class. LOL.
COACH OF THE YEAR...Stan Van Gundy. I don't think anyone expected him to be doing it big the way he has been with Orlando.
MOST IMPROVED...Marquis Daniels. Was having a career year and posting up all-star numbers before going down with the injury.
6TH MAN...Lamar Odom. Does everything, including all the intangibles, as the first dude off the bench for the best team in the league.

i see me and nik have got portland missing the playoffs, am i the only one that feels theres still something slightly missing from the blazers? albeit there young but i think theres still a few years away from knocking on the door as it were.

since the system is so flawed....who should have been MVP last year?

Kobe...I don't think the NBA journalists were ready to expose themselves on that level yet.

so the system will be flawed this year, and every other year that Kobe hasnt won....but last year it was ok right?
