after watching the miami/clippers game, i'm thinking that chris kaman has my vote as UGLIEST pro player there is. he looks like an ork from lord of the rings.
but, as for the clippers, they are for real. elton brand is a beast.
thanks for all your advice. i think i'll wait a little before i start firing off trades. i've got to believe that my players are not playing up to expectations yet- i'll give my team until christmas.
i'll let you guys then how my team is doing.
Hey everybody- I'm in a 12 person league and I ended up with the 12th pick. I had the 1st pick last year and I also won- so I've got a big target on the back of my head. Hurray for karma.
Here's my team:
PG: Jason Kidd
SG: Jason Richardson
G: Andre Miller
PF: Stromile Swift
SF: Ron...
I only caught the last bit of Smith's "The 'A' List" on ESPN just now, but he was talking about a possible interest in Peja from the Toronto Raptors. Whether they would trade for him or just wait until Peja opt out of the contact at the end of the year (for $11-12m/year)- I'm not sure...
are you sure artest wasn't there?
but in all seriousness- i hope bibby wasn't involved. i think he's a great role model and especially after his little stint on "wheel of fortune", his on-screen presence is great PR for the team.
For all you sports gurus out there, can anybody post a link to the Kings' draft picks the last 20 years or so and how they faired?
The only reason why I ask is because according to this article (posted below), Kings had several bad busts (Joe Kleine in 1985 #14, Billy Owen in 1991 #13) and I...
don't hate me for lurking around the lakers forum (no worries- i only read it to read their response to SAR), but even they give a ton of respect to GP.

honestly- i think the warriors really don't get a whole lot of respect despite a pretty decent lineup. richardson is just getting better, b-diddy (i don't know why the warriors forum call b.davis that) is finally putting in an ounce of effort, troy murphy is a double-double monster, and dunleavy...
kwame is the epitome of unrealized potential- but there is still a whole list of players out there who still have got a ways to go.
i like the manu pick- i wouldn't even be surprised if he eclipses duncan as the "go-to" guy this coming season. just to think he was taken in the ninth round of...
i saw this question posted on a warriors forum and it generated some pretty interesting discussion....
which player has the most potential to be a superstar?
as for me, i've got a draw between tyson chandler and shawn livingston.... chandler is ridiculous on the boards, but i like what i see...
when life hands you lemons, you make lemonade...
and SAR is DEFINITELY not a lemon. he didn't have a great tenure in portland, but then again, who has? and sacramento has always seemed to make every player just a little bit better. think webber, bibby, and miller.
i say let's make this...
brick- you're right. i think "great" is taken a little out of context. if you look at jordan, magic, kobe (I'LL admit that he's pretty good), or any future hall-of-famers, "great" is an innate ability to just lead and rise above the rest. as for kevin, i'm just hoping he'll develop to his...
potential? absolutely. he's got all the tools that would make a player great. i think the only two things he needs is some guidance and some time to mature. obviously, he's still raw and is still defining his style of play and role on the team which will take time to mature... however, i can't...
Carmelo is too big for Bowen to stay with for 7 games. Even if Duncan is healthy, the Spurs will be hard-pressed to find a lineup that can consistently run with Denver for a whole game, let alone a full series. With Nene healthy, Denver's front line can come close to equalizing Duncan's...
a good buddy of mine went to a sacramento entrepreneurial conference yesterday where mark cuban was the keynote speaker for the luncheon. in front of the entire group, he stands up and asks....
"ostertag for nowitzki. and a first-round pick."
cuban replied, "i'll have to talk to geoff...
