NBA Fans?
 

Any NBA fans here?

Lifelong Lakers fan here, and I grew up in Boston during the Bird era, figure that.

Lifelong Pistons fan here...could be LA vs Detroit in the finals...Kobe became my fav player a few years ago...im glad Lakers made the trade for Pau they are legit contenders now..

used to be, but i hate the ghettoness of the NBA now.

Yeah, Detroit is tough, I loved the Bad Boys teams. Gasol was a great trade for them. Kobe needs to win a ring without Shaq to justify his place as one of the best ever.

Spurs for Life!

Oh Yeah!
 

:D I think the Dallas Cowboys are cool.

just SUPERSONICs..... lol.

I've always been a Spurs fan, but I haven't been able to keep up with the NBA so much this season. I'm not so sure they'd be able to repeat anyway. Every year it's the same though.. I only start to watch closely at the start of the playoffs.

Spurs? What?

I have to give the Spurs their due they have been very dominate for many many years but for some reason I love to see them lose. Maybe its because they took that second ring from Detroit? but Detroit, this year, will make it 6 straight Conference Finals to tie the NBA record set by the the Lakers in the 1980s.

Huge Suns fans here. As for the finals, Lakers have a really good chance now, that trade with Paul Gasol was really smart. As for the suns, well, they lack effort or so it seems. I still can't believe that they lost to the Sixers, yes Igaudola is good but not good enough to beat 2 of the best Bigmen in the league and the best SG. It's hilarious at times...the only player actually showing effort is Amare with his 30pts and 10 rebounds a night.

From New England,been a real long dry spell for the Celts.
Lets see if Garnett is the answer.
Of course living in Peru now I cant watch em:eek:

Celts beat Detroit last night...but they will meet again in the finals. They have had 3 great games this year I can't wait to see that series. Orlando is going to do well too, Hedo Turkoglu has really stepped up this year...

Who do you guys think should get MVP?

I saw a sign from a recent game that said it all "24>23"

Although LeBron has had a great year...he's done alot of amazing things and he definitely deserves the nod...My vote is for Kobe..The guy has been robbed of MVP the last 2 seasons...He has lead his team from non contenders to the favorites in the West...He has matured in his playing and what he has to do to win...How has he not been MVP before? He now knows he doesn't have to score 50+ for them to win..

Its very close and if the Lakers were at the bottom of the West id vote for Lebron but my vote is for Kobe.

bball
 

basketball is so boring... id rather watch croquet.

Chris Paul or Lebron for MVP, so hard not to give it to lebron, his team blows

Kobe is the MVP, Lebron is close, but the difference between the 2 players right now is on the Defensive end, people don't realize how good Kobe is on D, Lebron needs to work on that, Also the West is much tougher with maybe 9 teams winning 50 games. Kobe has been scewed before for the award, its his time. Lebron is crazy though, 50 pts, 10 boards, 8 assists???? thats an incredible stat line. Although it was against the CBA level Knicks.

Good point about the D...Kobe is a top notch defender and WANTS to guard the best player on the opposing team. Kobe has reached a Jordan like level with his game. I agree its time for Kobe to get his due.

Kobe also has Gasol, Odom and for the early part of the year andrew bynum.

I am a big kobe fan but if u take lebron off the cavs they are the miami heat. There is noone in the league that means more to their team then lebron does to the cavs. Kobe can get away with a bad game and their team still win. If lebron doesnt have a good game that team is toast.

Kobe is def. the better all around player, but the MVP award isnt for the best player, its for the guy that is the most valuable to their team

W L PCT
43 18 0.705 - Lakers

35 27 0.565 - Cavs

Kobe is the guy Most Valuable to LA and they have a better record. And they haven't had Gasol for that long. Kobe has been carrying that team just like LeBron has. Put Kobe and LeBron with the same guys and Kobe's team would win.

Kobe has become subtle in his greatness, just because he doesn't score 40-50 doesn't mean he had a bad game. Have you seen those dishes this season? The Blocks? I will agree the Cavs live and die by LeBron and he has had multiple triple doubles but put the Cavs in the West and the Lakers in the East, the Cavs would be in 9th place and wouldn't even make the Playoffs. With the Lakers a distant 3rd above Orlando.

All NBA Team, post your choice, they have to be the real position they play, like not just 2-gs, they have to be Point and shooting, Power F and Small F, and of course center.
