in retrospect: things you were wrong about

[Killakobe81]

I was wrong about Nash. No he didnt deserve back 2 back MVP's and I also thought Cuban was dumb for letting him walk, but i never dreamed he would be THIS good. He has been pretty damn amazing in Phoenix, even while battling back issues.

i also didnt think Bowen would be missed as much by the Spurs. I think duncan aging has been even more critical and Maybe Bowen was on his last legs, but man do they miss Bruce.

so what are some of the predictions you made that turned out wrong? it can be predicitons you made about a game, a player's career, a draft pick, or whatever the case may be. you can go back as far as you want, which would be good because i am relatively new to the game.

two that come to mind: i thought the Hornets after '07 would grow and become one of the better teams in the league. i also thought that the TMAC, YAO, Artest team would win several championships.

what about you guys?

I thought last year's Washington Wizards were going to contend for the Eastern Conference Crown. I thought the Pistons were going to regret trading Jerry Stackhouse. I wanted the Pistons to sign Jeff McInnis over Chauncey Billups in the summer of 2002. I thought Chris Duhon was as good as any point guard in the league.

It's a thread about mistakes. You want some examples in the other direction? I did predict the Oklahoma City Thunder's rise last year (in late 2008), the Pistons implosion with Iverson (they were in the midst of a 6-game winning streak at the time), Joakim Noah's greatness, the Pistons Conference Championship in 2004, Rajon Rondo's breakout season after the 2008 Conference Finals, Carlos Boozer's greatness, and so on. I haven't been wrong about the Pistons in close to four years.
