Good one...as it seems that all of the posts in this thread were saying that this small award means the Mavs will win a le this year...

Don't hate because the Spurs passed on him...and could REALLY use him about now...

Haha, they just got swept by the Cavs, you have to understand the frustration. Getting beat by Varejao and Damon Jones is a frustrating.


Anyway, I love my boy JHO. When I got a call from the dean of the law school at Wake Forest she and I had a good conversation about Josh and obviously he was a big hit there, she followed all his games...this was the only reason I applied to that school, the basketball!
