Now that the playoffs are upon us this all has me extremely exited. as we know the west is so competitive, every first round matchup is ineresting to say the least clippers vs san a. i take the spurs but it won"t be easy. of my faves the thunder did not make it. besides golden state my other tw...

cool not everybody can be like mike or lebron. did not see the cavs game last nite but when spurs/okc game turned int a blow out i checked the box score against my grizzlies grequently it looks indeed impressive in terms of distribution of scoring and assists among their starters. they gotta be one ...

you are right, thelil. the last and only scoring leader after Jordan who also won the championship was Shaq wih the lakers 1999 - 00. MJ was the leading scorer during all six seasons he won the rings. maybe it has something to do with the triangle. go Melo! ps entertaining game on now between GS an...

i don't think there was any since and my best guess would be Michael Jordan, most possibly the greatest basketball player ever. Multiple times. everybody knows that;

my guess was not completely accurate the great kobe bryant did it in 2007 i believe.

ithink today is officially march madness. what better time to theorize nba basketball with thelil Sure isolation is great to watch when it works. It's just that spacing and ball movement by teams with great court awareness is more likely to get GOOD shots in the clutch and the teams that excel at th...

hope you saw last nites game between san a. and the cavs. very tight and entertaining game. not htat the spurs did not play well. but Irving was in the zone and took over the end of the game. 57 baskets. but you are right offensively mostly isolation going to the basket and making the impossible sho...

So what do you think of the players who surround lebron now in the cavs, thelil? Irvin imho is a better PG than Chalmers and seem to have pretty well adjusted to Lebron. But does he still play point guard? Love had crazy numbers with minnesota and was an all star before but i dont think this year. h...

thelil the rooting thing is strange. probably the best way to enjoy the game is to drop it all together. when i picked the teams i picked them because i liked to watch them play most. maybe some other considerations, underdog etc have played a role as you can't pick them all. or maybe one should. my...

thelil good to see you sticking with your man. I am still rooting for Miami and all the other four teams i picked 3 or 4 years ago in each conference.. the only team i dropped was Boston when they traded Rondo. Have replaced them with the Bucks because i thought they have a nucleus of young players ...

thelil, are you rooting for the Cavs now?

cheese and baguettes

welcome to the club, rollie!
