The NBA Season Is Saved

That's awesome, Mike. Nice find.

Pains me to say it, but Kobe may be one of the more underrated superstars in NBA history. The Denver stuff overshadows his dominance, imo, which is a shame.
 
Kobe is one of a kind. Big Mike, that link isn't working for me, probably because the computer I am typing on is a pos. When I can see it, I will comment--as if anyone is interested. :p

On another note.....what is all this Lin hype? How about this for a stat line?

3PT-- 7/10

FGM-- 9/12

3 blocks

27 points

Ryan Anderson.

Where is the press on this guy? Incredible.
 
tried to fix the image link for you Mike but for some reason it just isn't showing up...
 
Mike, that pick is why I stopped watching the NBA altogether. Lebron James and the mentality of today's athletes in the NBA. Now I know that is a generalization, but it is indicative of a large portion of the league. "King" James wants his crown but he doesn't want to earn it. He wants to create a super team instead of allowing one to be built around him like the other two in the pic above.

I am no Kobe fan, but what he's done should be considered legendary. Michael Jordan is what he is, 'nuff said. But Lebron has done nothing to deserve accolades yet he whines all the time that he doesn't get the respect he deserves? Come on!
 
Pietrus, let's light it up. I never ever thought I would pull for the Celts.
 
Here's a nice analysis, Mike:

With the way Kobe Bryant mercilessly rode LeBron James in those final minutes, the way Kobe demanded to defend LeBron, the Miami Heat’s star had to shoot the ball. Dwyane Wade had broken Kobe’s nose in the third quarter, and now it was James’ turn to break his spirit in the fourth.

After all, this was an All-Star game, and ultimately the moment everyone had waited to witness. Game’s on the line, Bryant on James. There’s nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. Most of all, there’s nothing to lose. Take the shot, live with the consequences.

Take heart Wiz fans. Your team is greatly improved. Wall is twice as good as last season. He has deviated from just putting his head down and running as fast as he can, to actually slowing down, pulling up and taking good shots. He still has a way to go--never foul Ryan Anderson behind the 3 point line--but he will continue to improve in time.

Crawford looked good. He's a NBA player without a doubt. He took some stupid shots late...but he can also improve in time. I will give him a pass for that, as he probably felt pressured to score on too many possessions.

Vesely is disappointing, and he needs to toughen up. He was invisible tonight. He needs to decide if he really wants to be a NBA player.

Overall.....a huge improvement for the Wiz. There is some potential there.
 
Celtics aggressively shopping Rondo:

http://www.slamonline.com/online/nba/2012/03/report-celtics-aggressively-shopping-rajon-rondo/

According to ESPN, the C’s front-office no longer wants Rajon largely because of his off-the-court attitude:

The Celtics find Rondo’s personality to be too high-maintenance and his clashes with coach Doc Rivers remain an off-court distraction, sources said, and the front office is now actively pitching him to other teams. With the Celtics realizing they are no longer title contenders, they don’t believe his point guard prowess is worth the headaches Rondo brings, sources say. And they do not want to build around him.
 
Linsanity? more like Linefficient.

Rondo just killed him today: 18/17/20

Rarified air for Rondo today.
 
Deron Williams also deserves some big praise. He scored 57 today! Wow.
 
The Magic head to Miami tonight to take on the Heat at 7 pm. This the fourth, and final time these two teams play each other during the regular season.

The Magic currently lead the series 2 games to 1.
 
So many stupid 4th quarter Magic turnovers, combined with a heavy dose of D Wade was just too much for the Magic to overcome. A nice win for the Heat.
 
Celtics emasculate the Heat today!!

Wow! Rondo with a trip-dub and Bradley serving Wade a Spalding sandwich in a blowout win.

That's now three blowout losses in five games for the Heat.

Wonder what Spolestra's job security is like?
