NBA At the Half

[King Glorious]

I can't believe I read it on here that James has an excellent supporting cast. I don't know if the rest of those guys could win the Big-10.

Hughes may be one of the biggest mistakes
in the NBA in the last 10 years. That much
money and the guy is worthless. Needs an
audition for AND ONE.

Cleveland needs a point guard
more than anything.

Gooden looks Omish, Amish, with that neck
beard. I believe this is an in-depth
evaluation of Gooden.

Someone has read "excellent" into overall supporting cast where I read "strong".

Or was it only a one man team that knocked Detroit out of the playoffs last year?

C'mon those guys were only down by 20 at the half to a 9-35 team last night!!

They lost by 6...without 3 key players.

Not one......3.






And the 9-35 team had just defeated the Spurs.....who I guess couldn't win the BT either.

Yet, some how, some way they are able to win the night before and the game before that without TWO of those key players. It seems to for some reason be that 3rd key player that makes all the difference. (hopefully Pavlovic isn't out too long!!) (and Grady Sizemore had more strikeouts than Peralta last year too...actually the last 3 years he has!).

[Mortimer]

You are wrong. Peralta was the league leader 2 years ago...but point well taken about the overrated Sizemore.



By the way......how did they beat the Spurs then with just Parker out?

You admit you do agree the supporting cast is a fine one...yet you insist on trying to imply it's a one man team. It just ain't gonna work.You'll have yourself twisted into a pretzel with that frustrated approach of yours.

Strikeouts

2007...Sizemore 155, Peralta 146
2006...Sizemore 153, Peralta 152
2005...Sizemore 132, Peralta 128

I am good at math an I am quite certain it is impossible Peralta ever led the league in strikeouts at any point in time with someone on his own team surapssing him. Sizemore is far from overrated. Despite his strikeouts he is always on base, and can play defense despite a poor arm. A .390 OBP from your leadoff hitter is quite doable I must say. I'll take 174 hits and 101 walks from him each and every year.

With everyone healthy it is an average supporting cast. The 3 man Gooden, Varejao, Ilgauskas frontline rotation is quite good. The guard play is poor. A point guard doesn't exist which is why LeBron has to play that position for the most part. Put it all together it is at best average.

That would be Curtis Granderson who was the league leader 2 years ago. Easy to mistake him with Jhonny Peralta considering the similar spellings of their names I guess.

I am going to check your work as I believe you are wrong on the strikeouts.


But you certainly have proven Here'sJhonny is a fine contact man.Also thought the 'Sizemore is a excellent defensive player despite the poor arm' ( ) was to die for.

When Sasha is in shape the defense a 6-7 shooting guard gives along with a 44% fg average ...a lot of teams would like that,too.Name the teams who have a better 3 big man rotation.





How does an average supporting cast knock out the Pistons?




You have LeBron Leblindness.......don't worry...most people do.
