Westside, I think the league (aka Stern and his henchmen) want a Heat vs. Lakers Finals next year with LeBron looking to get his first title against his old coach and Kobe trying to bounce back and get his sixth ring to tie MJ.

J41181, Dirk is showing the fire and leadership this series. He has also been very clutch. Dirk's great shooting, his great 3 point shot, his dead-eye free throw shooting, and his ability to score from anywhere are all very Bird-like. They are both pretty good rebounders although Bird...

Dirk played great. Two game winning shots this series to go along with his epic 48 point game in the last series. Mentally tough. Great focus. And he finished off the Heat down the stretch. What happened to LeBron? This was the biggest game of his career and he disappears. If the Hear...

Vesely has been compared to Tom Chambers. He sounds promising. Not sure who picks him though. The T-Wolves are more likely to take Enes Kanter. Vesely might then go to Toronto at 5 or Washington at 6. But yeah, I want to see Rubio. Hopefully his game translates well. The league needs...

Great comeback! Great clutch performance by Dirk! If you notice, the final play of the game was the exact same play the Knicks ran for Patrick Ewing in the playoffs several years ago. But Ewing missed the layup and Dirk made it. Dirk put the team on his back down the stretch, Marion played...

Rubio has had a rough year, but a move to the NBA may help his career. He sounds like Jason Kidd. Not the best shooter but a great passer and ball handler with a good defensive game.

Jimmer would fit in well with either the Jazz or the Pacers. He would also be good on the Rockets and on the Kings with Tyreke Evans. I really don't see the hype behind Kyrie Irving. Jimmer is the real deal. I think he would go higher in the draft but the Bucks, Warriors, and Wizards already...

Rose was in a better offense at Memphis when Coach Cal ran the dribble drive offense. Rose attacked as did Chris Douglas-Roberts and both guys could hit mid-range floaters and jumpers. Dozier did some quick attacks from the power forward position. Antonio Anderson did all the dirty work...

She taped her last show at the United Center a few days ago. In a related story the Chicago Bulls had their season finale at the United Center tonight. lol

DeadLift, I see that you are not much of a UCONN fan. lol. What do you think of Kemba Walker? I think he will be ok, but probably not a superstar. He's supposed to be drafted in the 5-8 range. Funny, but Kyrie Irving is supposed to go number one, but he wasn't really the best point guard...

In game 2 the Mavs were about by double digits then took Dirk out of the game for his normal rest. I thought they should have left him in there and really stomped on their throats and gotten the lead to 20. But the Thunder came back and made it a game by the end of the first half. What is...

Giovani, if Dirk were black they would be on him about not having won a championship. Since he is white they just try not to talk about him. I think it helps Dirk some allowing him to go out there and just play basketball. I really appreciated the Bird-Nique style duel in game 1.If the...

A ring would really help him out. You can then put him up there with Dr. J, Jerry West, Oscar Robertson, and Bob Petit as great players with a ring. If he plays a few more years like this then he will be top 15 or so. He would be right there with West, the Big O, Olajuwon, Duncan, Kobe...

Great performance by Dirk. He sized them up and made his shots.Then JJ Barea came in and broke the game open. Dirk and Durant do their best Bird-Nique shootout impersonation. Great basketball! During the game the commentators mentioned how Dirk is top 30 all-time. I agree and he is really...

Fredette would be a better fit on the T Wolves. They can pound it inside to Love and let Jimmer hit 3's from the outside. The Jazz have the third pick and might take Enes Kanter or Brandon Knight. If they take Kanter or another Euro big man then they might pick Jimmer at 12. Jimmer...

It's all Pau's fault!!!! Oops, I thought this thread was about Kobe. Same difference. lol. Kobe and Tiger both hit the wall at the same time.

Kobe's wheels fell off. His knees are gone. Next year he needs to rely on Gasol and Bynum. Kobe can't do it by himself anymore. The Lakers need to make Pau their go-to guy with fewer iso's for Kobe. I wouldn't write the Lakers off just yet but they need to change the way they play...

Great season by Pau! One of the best Gasol's in the game! lol Can't wait to see Marc and Pau in the all star game next year. I see Pau bouncing back next year after the early playoff exit. He had a great year the whole way through and carried the Lakers early in the year. Congrats to...

Marc Gasol played great. He barely missed a few of his shots. He played a great game all around. He can be an all-star next year if he keeps improving. He played in last summer's world championships and some rest this offseason would really help.

I think he should have made the 1st team but this is still good. I guess it was between him and Durant for the first team.Can't believe that Kobe made 1st team over Wade. Crazy. Dirk had a great year and has been great throughout his career.

JJ Barea should help Jimmer Fredette. Jimmer is taller, stronger, and a better shooter. Barea is a great player off the bench, even though he is playing with a small backcourt along with Jason Terry. Barea is a guard who can score and pass/dribble. I think Jimmer will be better. JJ...

Is Dirk a top ten guy all time? Not sure. There are a lot of great players. But if you are picking an all-time team (12 guys) then he would be considered given that he scores well, is a great shooter, a very good rebounder and a very tough matchup. For my all-time team I would put...

86 points off the bench has to be a record or close to it. 20 three pointers by the Mavs tied a record. Even Brian Cardinal hit one. Hopefully he plays more. I think he might as an enforcer at power forward. Dirk and Marion are more finesse. Jason Kidd played great. Great...

The Mavs are playing great. That's why they won. Dirk is having a better series than Kobe. The Lakers did well with a big front line and Shannon Brown in the game. Kobe screwed it up trying to play "hero ball." The Mavs are built very well. A great superstar to build around with an...

Yeah, I have no idea why Gortat and Howard couldn't have worked together. Both are physical freaks and great athletes. Those two guys up front with a solid power forward, Hedo at the 3 to give them a scorer and creator, JJ Reddick as a great shooter and good defender at the 2 with Jameer...
