How overpaid is Hedo going to be this offseason?

That would be the second rape that Kobe has gotten away with if you are scoring at home.

The officiating was horrible for both teams. Lakers are just a better team.

Is that on the basis that the Magic are one layup and one free throw from being up 3-1?

Yeah, but the winners don't need those excuses. I actually find myself cheering for the magic at times but surely you see that the lakers are just a hair better or at least thats what it seems to me.

I give the Lakers credit for winning all these series when they've been outplayed everytime and should have lost. It has nothing to do with the team, it is blatantly obvious that the team is a disaster, but the players are willing to coexist for a championship.

He's been huge this series but have you thought about putting in an application for GM of the Clippers? They could use someone like you to give a max contract to Turkoglu and bring their ineptitude into the next decade.

I hope this finally puts an end to this silly Ariza/West argument. I'd take Ariza over West any and every day.

No, he's not. He's a really nice player but like Lewis, he's not a star player. He's not a guy that you get to lead your team. He shouldn't be a max contract guy.

I didnt mean i would give him max and i should have clarified. Right now though, he is a poor man's dirk nowitzki.

He is worth Antawn Jamison money and that means 8 figures.

When has Dirk ever run the point? I don't think you could have come up with a worse comparison.

Do you guys not have cable up where you live? Hedo and Dirk are about the same size and play a similar outside in game. Dirk is better but hedo plays a similar style. Dirk may not bring the ball up the floor much but they run the offense through him in a similar way and he handles it a lot in the halfcourt.

Why is that such a bad comparison?
