4 rings got.
also,because he's so good at yelling "game over" about a shooting contest between two ty backups, and NOT about the fact that they were curbstomping Miami. Disagree with that? Jeff Motha in Van Motha in Gundy says otherwise beyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatch!
First:
PG Derrick Rose
SG Kobe Bryant
SF LeBron James
PF Amare Stoudemire
C Dwight Howard
Second:
PG Rajon Rondo
SG Dwyane Wade
SF Kevin Durant
PF Dirk Nowitzki
C Tim Duncan
Third:
PG Russell Westbrook
SG Manu Ginobili
SF Carmelo Anthony
PF Blake Griffin
C Nene Hilario
at any dumbass putting Timmy, Pau, or Love ahead of Dirk.
And Nash rightfully earned his MVP trophy. Took his team from being a 29 win team and one loss away from having the worst record in the West, to a 62 win team, the #1 seed in the West, and the WCF. Nash was the hands-down #1 guy on his team, while Shaq wasn't neccesarily the hands-down #1 for the Heat (lol Wade). Not to mention, the Heat was already a top-4 seed team in the East who got to the second round before Shaq came on board.
Nash deserved every bit of that MVP award, and there shouldnt be any question about it.
Obstructed_View's sole purpose of posting in this thread is to let others who don't visit upstairs get a sample of how re ed he is.
1st:
PG: Rose
SG: Bryant
SF: James
PF: Dirk
C: Howard
At SG Wade could win, but Kobe is probably the better choice
If the Heat continue to lose against elite teams (with LBJ choking), and OKC finishes with a better record, then you could possibly see Durant sneak in there...but I seriously doubt it.
At PF it's Dirk's to lose...only STAT could threaten him here. In the future this spot will be the sole ownership of Blake Griffin.
1st:
Howard
Durant
James
Wade
Rose
2nd:
Stoudemire
Nowitzki
Anthony
Bryant
Williams
3rd:
Duncan
Gasol
Aldridge
Ginobili
Westbrook
I know Paul will probably get in based on reputation but he's been playing like for awhile now.
Nice call with LA as 3rd team center ...I would take him over Blake or Love forgot about him ... He has played some center so not a huge stretch ...
I don't think Dirk has first team locked at all. I could see him being bumped to second team. The Mavs are winning but Dirk's numbers are on the downside across the board. It suggests that he has a much more balanced team to cover up his slide in production similar to what Tim Duncan started going through a couple of years ago.
I wouldn't be surprised if Golden Boy Durant is on the first team in Dirk's spot. His team is winning at a decent clip and he's leading the league in scoring again.
LOL no way Wade gets it over kobe ...
i never liked how manipulatable the spots could be.
there needs to be a clearcut choice for each position pg/sg/sf/pf/c and that player should only qualify for his natural position
i.e, wade/bryant both on ALL-NBA though they are both naturally SGs.
s not right
I agree with MavFan's number 1.
I think the only C with a chance of making it is Rondo (3rd team), and even then, I'd say his odds are only 20% or so. Rose has virtually locked up 1st Team, and then you have DWill, Nash, Rondo and CP3 all competing for the other two spots. (And that's not even counting the fact that they don't go strictly SG/PG, so there's a chance a PG gets bumped for an SG.)
spurfans putting Kevin Love on the first team.
What re s.
dirk's minutes are down, that's why his points/rebounds are on the downside. but he's shooting a career-high 53% from the floor and a career-high 43% from 3 (and this is his 13th season btw). kevin durant can only dream of dirks efficiency. he only scores more points because he plays more (+5.4 min), shoots more (+4.4 fga) and gets to the freethrow line more (+2.8 fta) . and he has an all-star pg running the show. dirk is the far better player this season. but it wouldn't surprise me if durant makes the first-team instead because he's an overhyped kid and he isn't german.
lul whut?
50+ straight double-doubles? naaaaaaaaah.
LOL Oden with the smackdown ...

This one made me laugh. I'm not the blind Laker homer you think I am.No, he is the only black guy that got accused of raping a white girl and causing a lot of negative publicity for the league. Big difference. What you are spewing is silly because you know what I meant.Poor Kobe. Must suck being the only black guy in the league. All those racists voting for white guys like Derrick Rose and Dwight Howard. Kobe's destined to go his entire career without a league MVP award.
Your blind hate for Kobe allows you to believe that. I've stated that in a few years I would rather have Rose but not right now. Kobe is clearly the best SG in the game and arguably still the best player in the game. He just doesn't need to dunk 5 times a game to make sportscenter highlights to prove it. His peers knows whats up though.BTW, put Derrick Rose on the Lakers THIS YEAR and they're in first or second in the west, especially with a first team power forward and a second team center next to him.
No it's not a one game season. You guys got lucky in Staples and blown out in the last game. It could have easily been 2-1 in favor of LA. Don't confuse the champs needing confidence with fans talking trash. Trust me, the Lakers can go into anyone's gym and bust them in the mouth. You guys have a terrific record and I give you that. But all it takes is one game for LA to take back HCA. From the looks of Sunday, that won't be too hard. If any fanbase is insecure, it sure ain't the Lakers'. We talk come rain sleet or snow.And the season is only one game. It's not even three games because the two the Spurs actually won don't count. Sorry for having one Spur on the list. I know they lost the only important game of the season so far. If champs don't need confidence, why is their fanbase so insecure that they have to challenge someone else's all-NBA selections and whine about Dice's tip in?
Artest is a funny dude. If you were not a Spurs' fan you would have laughed. He even clowned Miami for crying on national tv. Kobe on the other hand was being hacked by Manu and heckled by some drunk Spur fan. He absolutely had the right to bust Manu's ass out there. As far as Bynum, he spoke the truth. Parker had 14 points and the rest of your starters had 15. They quit and he called them out on it. Plain and simple.You must have missed Kobe and Artest respectively flexing and pumping their fists and Bynum jubilantly spilling his guts to the nearest microphone. They obviously did all those things against Charlotte and Minnesota.
Well, agree to disagree then. Only a hater would put anyone ahead of Kobe right now. Despite not being top 11 in FTAs, he is still right up there as a scorer in the league. Even in his 15th year.I'm fuzzy on how any of this has anything to do with my all-NBA selections, but you're really excited about that win on Sunday, so I understand. Must be nice not to feel like losers for the first time this season without having to hurl insults at the team that's still ahead of...well, you're still hurling insults.
I threw that out there to mess with you. To me head to head metrics are important when two teams matchup in the playoffs. I pointed out that Bynum won both matchups because it's true. In today's NBA it is about the matchups. Stats do lie. You look at the box score and see Bynum had 4 points against you guys. That looks pathetic if you didn't watch the game. He could have absolutely gotten anything he wanted out there (started each half with an emphatic dunk). Instead, he dominated defensively. What the stats don't show is how many would be layup attempts he averted, how many jumpers he caused because players were scared to go in the paint. The stats do show his dominating 17 rebounds and multiple offensive rebounds though.The head to head metric as an all-NBA selection criterion is pretty complex, but the "how did they do against the Lakers" metric hasn't really caught on as the defining factor in selection. I do find it interesting that you go into immense detail to give me stats on a single game to make a case for one player, but discount specific stats on another or just throw them all out the window and blame racism if it's not in your favor. I'd ask if you were for real, but I don't think I really want to know if you actually are.
The bolded in your post: No immense detail needed. I just looked at the box score and reported what I saw.
As far as your Love selection as All NBA. Lamar Odom could put up the same numbers if he were on that ty team. Ditto for Pau. If you give Bynum his own team (he is 3rd option at best on this Laker team) he would give you 20/10/3 in his sleep. He is just too big to not get his numbers. Again Love is ok offensively and couldn't guard a chair defensively. He'll be the Dominique Wilkins or Barkley of his era. Gaudy stats with noto speak of.
Since you didn't do your all-NBA team, and instead cried about why my opinions aren't valid, I'll do your list for you:
1st:
Derrick Rose
Manu Ginobili
Luol Deng
Dirk Nowitzki
Tyson Chandler
2nd:
Tony Parker
Roddy Beaubois
Caron Butler
Carlos Boozer
Tim Duncan
3rd:
George Hill
Gary Neal
Shawn Marion
Dejuan Blair
Joaquim Noah

jim duncan over dwight. in fact dwights not even there.
Someone's sarcasm meter is busted.
jim duncan over dwight. in fact dwights not even there.
Zach Randolph is better than Gasol this year! Gasol don't deserve to make it this year!
I only root for 3 teams. Spurs, Bulls, Mavs. In that order.

my wingmen blow but at least I didnt put Jefferson in there
fair enough, my 1st team of 5 clones of aaron aflallo wouldn't work either.I only root for 3 teams. Spurs, Bulls, Mavs. In that order.
pretty tough to debate the first team of:
Rose
Kobe
LeBron
Nowitzki
Howard
The only one you could probably make a case for is Wade/Kobe but KB's picked it up since the All Star Break while Wade/Heat have struggled.
lol @ anybody putting KD or Amare above Dirk.
