I think Pau and Bynum both deserve to be All Stars. They put up solid numbers. They would both put up 20ppg and 15rpg if they didn't play with each other.

Looking at the #s Bynum and Gasol are pretty equal. Bynum puts up 17PPG, 12RPG, 2BPG, and 1APG. While Gasol puts up 17PPG, 10RPG, 1BPG, and 3APG.
Gasol also gets fewer turnovers, more steals, and doesn't shoot 500 from the charity stripe.

^ This. Aldridge and Marc Gasol better make the team or I'll be pissed.

Me too. I dont know what it is, Bynum just doesnt do it for me. Would take Nene, M Gasol, even Noah over him.
Off quote, but what the hell is with this Sixers team? Cant understand what they are good. Watched them against the Heat and was impressed. Also, the referee favoritism of towards the Heat is a joke. Just start the game 10-0 why dont they.


76ers have benefited from a schedule that had them playing a lot of weak teams to start the season and playing more games at home rather than away. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see them regress towards the mean as the season drags on.

76ers are awesome. one of the more underrated teams along with the hawks. they dont have the brand name recognition like the bigger market players, but lou williams, iguodala, elton brand are all great value players. i was expecting more out of jrue holiday, but he hasnt done well. spencer hawes is great when he's not injured. they have a solid bench. their best hire was doug collins. he's really doing a phenomenal job with them.


While I haven't watched much of the 76ers this season, Doug Collins has traditionally been an awful coach. The only coach that was wasted more talent over the course of their career is Isiah Thomas.

Wut? Bynum and Howard are nothing alike, except they play center. Bynum is fundamentally sound, has post moves and is more of a prototypical center... you can run your offense through him. Howard is a dominant athlete, most of his effectiveness comes through his rebounding (and subsequent cleaning up) and defense- though his post moves are developing, most of his game is simply just overwhelming people inside.


This. Please send a SASE to me and I will mail you your prize.

That high light clip made me pull for the guy.

No love for the Knicks, but it was cool to see him go off, at least for one night.

FFR, a high light is a light way up high, like a street lamp.

Prease. Nobody does White better than Asian people.


And pours over the stats. Real x and o's type. Might have something here. As Barkley put it the other night "league is full of stiffs".
