mid season NBA impressions

[verbalassaulta]

i'll save us all from another boring ass soccer thread

ok the nba season is half over...what are some opinions....personally i'll still take my preseason pic of indiana(i didnt think they'd be this good) over the kings(though i wouldnt be surprised if portland is in the finals)...
mvp...kevin garnett...has nobody around him plus big all around numbers and a great defender (no way its kobe 3-9 w/out shaq)

coach...rick calisle(detroit)...detroit has nobody really and they are tied with the best record in the east

rookie....amare stodamire...this kid is for real...saw him play a couple times....putting up big numbers and helping the surprise suns....just so ya know kobe, tmac, garnett...didnt put up half the number he is putting up in there rookie season(all had no college)

im shocked at how poor my Clippers have done this season. I expected really big things but they're right back at the bottom. bring back Miles

[Javier]

Miles wasnt much of a difference. That was still a very good trade, its just not wrking out right now.

NO NBA PLAYER in this leauge can carry a team by himself.  So when it comes down to MVP,its  a matter who puts up the best numbers.  

For example the Magic, McGrady has a fantastic team around him, Hill, Miller, Garrity.  Miller and Hill together average 32 plus together.  
TWolves got the homeboy Wally  and Hudson. and plus at the end of games,  the Twolves go to guy is Wally, they alays give him the ball in a close game at the end, not as a shot creater, but just taking the shot.  Garnett chokes.
so basially what im saying, if the Magic didnt have Miller and Hill in games, Tmacz Magic would have a losing record, if The Twolves didnt have Hudson and Wally for some games, the T Wolves would also lose.  

so for MVP, its either between Garnett, Kobe, or Tmac.

kobe and tmac also didnt start in their rookie seasons,so that comment has some flaws you need to work out lol

[The Big Bad Ass]

Ah shit, I forgot Verbalassulta picked Indy to do it too. I still stand by my pick of them too! But if not them, I hope to see the kings, or mavs win it. Lakes will prolly do it again tho if they get in

all these players played less than 14 min. per game man.  

[Javier]

oh yea check this...

 kobe scored 8 PPG in 15 min. Amare scores 13 in 31
Garnett  scored around the same Amere is scoring.

Shareef Abdur Rahim is still the fuckin greatest.

[Sub-Z]

^^are you retarded!?

[TheSheriff]

^^^have you fuckin got a sense of humour?

[PLANT]

Alvin Williams is the man.

I hope Kobe wins MVP becuase he's having his best year and playing topnotch.  Tmac really stepped it up this year but I still think the Magic are shit.  If only Shawn Kemp could lose about 85 pounds.? I was amazed at how good the dunk contest was this year.  Desmond Mason and J Rich are both sick.  I hope Indiana makes the final because I think they match up tough for the Lakers.  Michael Jordan should be "coach of the year"

[TheSheriff]

Fo real tho.

MVP-Kobe
Coach-Dicky Carlisle
Captain-Shareef Abdur Rahim

[King Tech Quadafi]

Raptors will make it to the play offs, Carter will be MVP

[.:DayGoStyLz:.]

lol@ Everyone forgetting who the second best team (recordwise) in the west is right now. And probably the hottest team in the league, along with the Lakers right now. Mah Spurs are comin yall, dont sleep. Big matchup Friday...Spurs @ Lakers. Should be real good i think. Lakers usually get up for tha Spurs, Kobes playin good, Tim Duncan is quietly playing as good as anyone in the league right now. Too bad ima be at FUKIN work!! lol

Most of this shit is too close to call. I mean, predicting award winners...halfway thru the year, makes no sense anywayz lol. Kobe will contend for MVP, depends on how the Lakers do the second half of the season. I still think Tim Duncan should be up for consideration. There isnt a more consistent player in the league. KG also playin well. I dunno, u can neva tell.

[T.J.]

meh

mvp=kobe or garnett
most improved=ricky davis fa sho
rookie=amare stoudamire
coach=i dont pay attention to coaching

THIS IS CLEVELANDS YEAR!! ALL DA WAY!!!!
