Month 1 - State of the League Address

The ‘10-‘11 NBA season is just over 1 month old - here are my ruminations

Eat my bullet-points part deux (pause):

• Landry Fields is vying for Rookie of the Year (best rookie in November) - Who woulda thunk it?
• The Kanix are decent - I'm holding my breath waiting for the spoiler(s) - Let's Go Knicks!
• Sith Lord Stern bought the New Orleans Hornets - if I was Dell Demps I would make all types of luxury tax trades and make the NBA pick up the tab...seriously how does this work?
• Antoine Walker joins the Idaho Stampede - drops 13 points and 1 technical foul in first game back (welcome back to nowhere bro)
• Blake Griffin is still Rookie of the Year (see Mozgov facerape below)
• The Heat are small - but still better than every other East team not named Celtics
• There's the Lakers and there's the rest of the West - fast forward to Finals
• The Pacers are going to make the playoffs?! (prolly not tho)
• The lockout is looming large - I want to be a scab player - where do I sign up?

NBA Players of the Month: November

Western Conference Player of the Month - November

 Deron Williams - I could make fun of his hair but it wouldn't be as funny as this: Deron's Hairlines

Eastern Conference Player of Month - November

Dwight Howard - Somehow Superman is still underrated and still quite strange: "Dwight Howard wants to imbue the NBA logo with the Christian cross in an attempt to spread Christianity."

The Answer: Starting PG for Beşiktaş Cola Turka!?

I am not mad at all - Allen "The Answer" Iverson has arrived in Istanbul to resume his professional basketball career. Larry Brown expressed regret that no NBA team would hire Iverson and players around the league were baffled that he couldn't get a contract. I for one am pleased that he has taken his talents overseas - it should be a good experience for him and I guarantee the highlights are going to be awesome. As much as I want to see him back in the L - let's see what he does in Turkey. Iverson has promised the Beşiktaş Cola Turka fans "something they haven't seen before." No sh*t Sherlock - we all know it could get ugly but no matter what it's going to be spectacular.

Here's awesome video of Turkish fans welcoming Iverson at the airport:

Week 1 - State of the League Address

Western Conference Player of the Week

Pau “turkeyneckbeardface” Gasol

Eastern Conference Player of the Week

Rajon Rondo (24 assists?)

The ‘10-‘11 NBA season is one week old and we have plenty to talk about. 

Here are some of my observations and predictions. 

Eat my bullet-points (pause):

• The Celtics are angry and ready for their Finals rematch vs The Lakers
•  KG is so spit-froth angry he called Charlie Villanueva a cancer patient (hilariously redacted)
• The Lakers will win the '10-'11 Finals rematch unless Shaq becomes Kazaam
• Landry Fields is actually a decent NBA player
• Blake Griffin is Rookie of the Year
• John Wall - future All Star (24 pts, 13 dimes, & 9 steals?)
• Yao Ming’s 24 minute rule is stupid and self-defeating
• The Heat will win 65 games
• T-Mac has knees made of charcoal dust - finito
