Same here except for Navarro getting the 6th Man award. Not that I have anything against him (although he's probably pissed me off as often as making me happy) it's just that if that would happen I would be eating a HUGE serving tray of crow.

When Navarro passes it bounces off his teammates' feet.

Especially when he tries to do it off the dribble and force it into traffic. Those were the times over the years that I could feel an extra thirty hairs fly out for every one of those dumb passes.

I have to be honest: Of course I did!

Well no. Actually I didn't.

Timone
10-30-2007, 01:04 PM
I didn't know who to put for Sixth Man and Most Improved so I went with our
boy Delfino for Most Improved because I truly believe he will make at least ONE reverse layup, and James Posey for Sixth Man. *shrug*

BTW detroitexport: Navarro. Navarre.

I think Detroit wins the East...I just think that every other team has more serious flaws...

Boston- depth, bench, egos

Chicago- post scoring, youth, Skiles

Cleveland- supporting cast, no Varejao, LeBron doesn't want to be there

Miami- age, health, chemistry

Washington- no defense, Eddie Jordan, no big men

Detroit- depth, bench scoring

New Jersey- health, post scoring, RJ staying healthy


I think Detroit has the least of the problems...

Timone

damnit, I'd like to change my MVP vote from LeBron to Carmelo. Oh well.

Maybe I'm not good with odds (as you can see when I'm out of Alpacas every contest), but the Pistons have better odds of winning the Central and the East, but the Bulls have better odds of winning the championship?

Am I missing something?

Glenn
11-01-2007, 11:02 AM
Mo, you are interpreting that correctly.

My guess would be that there is a lot of Chicago $ pouring in on the Bulls to win it all and Vegas is compensating by pulling back a bit on the payoff.

MoTown

That's why I never bet real money.

Thanks for the clarification, Glizzenn.

That's called "betting the Kobe".

al thorton has to have some serious consideration for rookie of the year.

He is averaging 19.5 points and 7.1 rebounds in the last 10 games, vastly increasing his fantasy value. Also, he jst dropped 33 pts and 12 boards off the bench..

Timone
03-15-2008, 11:58 AM
Bump. Let's see how we've done so far.

I'm not proud. There's some picks I made that made me wonder if I was high when I posted.

We will sign Theo Ratliff and trade for Juan Dixon, but only after trading piece of shit Nazr Mohammed for Primoz Brezec and Walter "Valter" Hermann.

WOW!
