And how the Pistons recover from that loss...I have no doubt with the front office the Pistons have, and the Team, there wont be much of a drop off...But I'm interested to see what Ben will do for the Bulls...I'm thinking they will show a Marked improvement.

If the NBA season were shortened by 3 months, would anyone care?

Look at the pathetic ratings. No one cares about the NBA. It should end right after the NCAA tournament.

If the NBA season were shortened by 3 months, would anyone care?nba champs

but that means we'd be left with more boring baseball! And really you cannot be a non basketball fan to answer this because obviously you wouldn't want it so there would be more coverage of your favourite sport. This shouldn't even be posted in the basketball area because you are obviously not a basketball fan and neither are any of those that agree with you. It is like if I went to the baseball section and posted "I think all baseball stadiums should be burnt down, would you care?"

If the NBA season were shortened by 3 months, would anyone care?basketball shoes ,nba teams

Ppl will still watch thier home team.

Rating sucks during playoffs because those 2 teams are boring and are not good teams to have ppl jumping the bandwagons for
I would care.

But MLB just drones on and on and on. Nobody really gives a rat's furry behind until October.
The NBA shortened the season by about 2 months like eight years ago and the Lakers coach Phil Jackson seemed to care the following year as he started yelling "Asterisk, Asterisk, Asterisk".
i wouldent care if they never again started an nba season
I certainly would not care....can't recall watching a single game in a couple of years.
No, then there would be more legal trouble and babies from the NBA players. Keep the players busy with the NBA....
3 months isnt enough......and i thought i was the only one who didnt care for basketball anymore.....i have only watched one game since the 98 and the only reason i did watch it is because i made a bet
yeah i agree. and if you shorten it....in that short NBA time players will get to relax when they have off time but then play as hard as they can during the season cause its shorter and they dont get so exhausted. i think it would be nice to have playoffs near march madness final four.
Good question. In the nba and nhl almost everyone makes the playoffs anyway. You have to really suck not to make it.
I would care. I really enjoy the season too. The NBA is just exciting basketball. The athleticism is ridiculous and there's a show put on each and every week. Plus, it's the regular season that I use to evaluate my team and predict how they'll do later.
they would lose too much money and teams would probably have to be removed.
most people wouldn't care but I would because my league pass lol
I would welcome it. That way I wouldn't have to hear about it as much on ESPN.

Doesnt this '07-08 NBA season seem like a mess?

well the celtics are the biggest/oldest surprise of the year because well we all knew this championship team was coming after ray allen and kg got traded..okay then there are the pistons-they always do great..but after those 2 east seeds, their records really suck compared to the west..i mean the cavs: 41-31? wtf they suck! and they are in the playoffs still? the rest of the east records are disgusting as well..the miami heat who won a champioship not even 2 years ago are now facing the lottery with what 12 wins? thats a true disgrace!

in the west, the mavericks who hav been awesome [in reg season] the past 7 years are suddenly fighting for their lives to gain a potential playoff spot...they had a historic 67 win season and now 7th seed this year with their best player injured...and now suddenly all top west teams are struggling to keep their playoff seeds because a 3 game losing streak can place you at 10th seed...doesnt this seem very messy and wierd!?

Doesnt this '07-08 NBA season seem like a mess?nba street

I wouldn't call it a mess, I understand what you are talking about, a 50 win team who would be 3rd or 4th in the east could miss the playoffs if they are in the west, it's crazy.

A team in the west going through a little 3 game winning streak could fall out of the playoffs even though they were like the 2nd seed before.

And check out the east, Celtics, great, Pistons, always been great, Magic, pretty good.

Starting at the Cavs, like you said, they suck, so one conference is just awesome, while the other just can't match up.

Doesnt this '07-08 NBA season seem like a mess?nba news ,nba teams

YEEEESSS

i wish lakers are first.

but the east have it easy, west doesnt
well this section of yahoo answers are a mess right now. very boring,no good questions or answers. i come on this board looking for humor but right now it's very serious and boring
It is no surprise how the mavs are doing since the kidd trade, they suck. What really surprises me is that a team in the will win 50 and go home after the regular season.
march madness of NBA
It's actually great. Parity has been good for the league. In the west New Orleans has been pleasant to watch. All the trades that has happened. I hate L.A., but having them back as championship contenders again is fun. Shaq and Kobe as opposites in the same division makes for upcoming interesting drama. 9 teams separated by 3 to 4 games for 8 playoffs spots. Houston's winning streak. Denver's high scoring assault. Utah's precision offensive attack. Golden State's electricity. Those scrappy Dallas Mavericks who aren't going to give up without Dirk...Oh! And lets not forget...The San Antonio Spurs for being...well...The San Antonio Spurs.

In the east, we have the Boston Celtics after years of futility are back with the best record in the league. The Pistons who seem to be the only team that can beat Boston are better than last season. Orlando who is better than last year. Philadelphia who is on a tear and seems like a team who can shake things up in the east come playoff time. Chris Bosh who is back with Toronto. And don't forget Cleveland, for some strange reason Cleveland apparently "sucked" last season but they still made through Detroit and on to the finals.

These teams dont suck. They are just beating up on each other. It's parity. It's great. It's the way basketball in April and May should be...with no clear cut favorite to win it all. I love it.
well the Miami heat played well 2 years ago because of SHAQ. He was thhe most dominating player in the NBA! Dwayne wade played better in in 2005 and 2006 but now he isn't that great but he is still pretty good.

KG would have a big impact on the celtics with pierce but I wouldn't compare Ray allen a superstar. Jason Kapono, 3 point foot locker consecutive champion leads the league with 3 point percentage goals , according to stats he's way better than Allen but just because he is older has more expierence and is considered the 3rd best player on the best team doesn't mean he is that great.

I don't know why he was in the 08 all star game.

The Mavs have obviously had problems due to their franchise player Nowitzki and Jason Kidd, who WAS right behind Steve Nash is now 4th in the league according to assists.

As for the cavs, lebron james has become a one man show, no matter how great he is, he still needs to play as a team.

Either that, or his teammates just suck.

And the West hasbeen pretty vigorous latel due to the Suns, spurs, Lakers and especially the Rockets because of their 22 game winning streak. Kobe I guess has finally matured and has decided to play as a team which made them one of the best in the West.

Bryant should definetly deserve MVP this year, How could the future jordan who has been in the league for more than a decade not win a single MVP award?

cuz he was a ball hog.

But now I thiink he finally deserves it

Anyway, I hope this helped.
not a mess dude, its fun. trades, teams changing on the go, wild teams like GS and NO doing well, mark cuban getting close to suicidal, who could ask for more?
Well as a Lakers fan i can careless about seedings as long as the Lakers are a 100% heathy nobody can beat them!!Plus the NBA wants a Celtics vs Lakers Finals so watch all the good calls go there way come playoffs time!!

Sorry about your Mav's they will be on the outside looking in come playoff time!!But hey some good can come from this !!This years draft should very deep!!So with any luck at all they should get a good player!!So keep your head up!!Anything can happen when the ping pong balls drop!!
It wont be like this next year

If the NBA season were to end tommorow who would get MVP? 6th Man? Most Improved?

Heres what I think

Most Improved

Carlos Boozer (gotta be)

6th Man

Leandro Barbosa

MVP

Kobe Bryant

oh and by the way please dont say it is to early in the season to tell... because remember If the season ends tommorow.....

If the NBA season were to end tommorow who would get MVP? 6th Man? Most Improved?nba scores

Most Improved: Luke Walton

I mean the guy went from a bench warmer last season, to a significant starting SF. He leads the league right now in 3pt% and is averaging 12.7 points.

6th Man: Leandro Barbosa

I would agree, he has really come off the bench to help the Suns since Nash is playing less minutes now. And the Suns are playing out of their minds right now.

MVP: Carmelo Anthony

Now I love Kobe and I'm a Lakers fan, but he isn't MVP this season, especially since coming off his injury. Carmelo is just playing great, scoring and leading his team to a bunch of wins since the loss of Kenyon Martin. The Nuggets would be nothing without Melo.

If the NBA season were to end tommorow who would get MVP? 6th Man? Most Improved?nba 07 ,nba teams

I agree with the 6th man and most improved in barbosa and boozer but the mvp...Steve Nash

how can you not go for him? the guy has improved his numbers from last year and is still doing things no one in the nba can do
Most Improved: JR Smith

6th Man Barbosa

MVP: Kobe

Comeback Player: Boozer
how is kobe myp?? itd, unfortunately, have to be boozer.

myp could also be tim duncan or dwight howard!
mip: jr smith hes one of the main reasons that melo is doin so good

6th man:barbosa

MVP - Steve Nash

Most Improved - Carlos Boozer

Other Awards:

Coach of the Year: Jerry Sloan

NBA ***** Champs: Phoenix Suns
most improved don't know yet

6th man don't know either

Are you crazy??? Right now here's my list...

Most Improved

Zach Randolph... Portland, no one can stop him...

6th Man

Gotta give it to Devin Harris on Dallas, he's doing big things.

For the MVP

I hate to say it but right now it's gotta be Steve Nash, the guys outta control with assists and points. He makes everyone around him better.
most improved

stein for coming to his senses and changing the balls

6th man

doc rivers for everyother team

exec of the year

isiah thomas, for his good work for every other team

MVP, MIP, etc,

Chris Paul, crap team, top dog, carrying them.
i agree with your pick 4 sixth man and most improved

but MVP should go to caremlo or joe johnson

NBA Season So Far!?

List 3 teams for each category and tell why you placed them there.

1)They're doing as well as I thought they would.

2) Just as expected, they are not winning.

3) Another loss...what is going on with this team?

4)Look at their winning %. The surprise team of the season!

NBA Season So Far!?nba betting

1.) Boston - I don't know that I need to explain this a whole lot

New Orleans- The pieces are fitting together, with Peja back they are doing amazing

Houston - The Rick Adleman offense fits and T-Mac is staying healthy

2.) Miami - Old and serviceable without D-Wade, but nothing more, and that doesn't win games

Seattle - I did expect them to lose, but not this badly, anyways, Carlesimo is trying to force feed Durant, comon, he's just a rookie

Philadelphia - Not a lot of bright spots on this team, and the usual ones aren't really shining

3.) Chicago - This team was supposed to be a stud, I guess Kobe rumors and Ben Wallace's age are shaking them up a little

Washington - I have no idea what's going on, Arenas, Butler, and Jamison are all there. Arenas is struggling though. I think they just lose focus.

Golden State - Now I didn't think they'd win all their games, but losing all of them? I guess Stephen Jackson does make a difference

4.)Portland - I guess loss of Oden didn't hurt them as much as people thought, and, Martell Webster.

LA Clippers - I guess Tim Thomas plays well under pressure and Sam Cassell is trying to pull the agelessness of Jason Kidd

Toronto - I really don't know what everyone sees in this team...

NBA Season So Far!?nba fantasy ,nba teams

1) boston, spurs, suns (cause they're killing everybody)

2)heat, knicks,atlanta (heat is ancient, knick are nuts, and atlanta is still atlanta)

3)wizards (arenas needs to step up and drop 45 on somebody)

4)blazers (brandon roy is a best, watch out next year with the big fella on board)
Boston

Seattle

Knicks(hate thomas and selffish marbury)

Blazers(only 4-3 but has beaten dallas and detroit)
Boston

Cleveland
1) Orlando Magic

2) Golden State Warriors

3) Chicago Bulls

4) Lakers...they are 3-3 against opponents who are combined 31-14 this season. Lakers have faced the toughest schedule so far of any team in the NBA and will be facing tough competition for another 14 games.
1) The Celtics. they have the big three %26amp; there chemistry on the court is great. each player is playing there role perfectly and none of those players are selfish. The Rockets. t-mac is on mission so far this year. yao is playing well too. rick adlemen's system is working well for the rockets. if they stay healthy they will get past the first round. San Antonio. there the defending champs.

2) Golden State Warriors. they should not have gotten rid of jason richardson, the only player on there team that is really good is baron davis %26amp; warriors fans better hope and pray he stays healthy. Seattle. give them a couple of years. kevin durant will get better, but not this year. Minnesota. they got rid of kg.

3) Miami Heat. with out dwayne wade this team is not even decent. i thought they would have more than one win by now. Chicago Bulls. i think if they had finished the season ahead of cleveland to be #2 they would have been in the nba finals instead. they will get better as the season gets older. with are without a kobe trade. Cleveland Cavs. im not surprised by there record, but i thought they would be a little better.

4) New Orleans. chris paul is playing great. the nucleus of the team is almost perfect. if they avoid injury they could be this years golden state. Orlando Magic. i knew they would be better with rashard lewis, but they may be the second best team in the east.
1) Toronto Raptors

2) Washington Wizards

3) Chicago Bulls

4) Atlanta Hawks (not for winning %, but how well they've been playing)

Next NBA season?

I think it's too early to tell right now.

But from my standpoint, there will be a revival in basketball history.

You know what I'm saying.

Kings, Lakers, Warriors, Blazers, Spurs, Mavs, Utah, and Suns.

Celtics , Washington , Raptors , Magic , Bulls(yes, bulls), Detroit, Cleveland.

It's all repeating itself back.

Unlike the past years, it's always been the Spurs, Pistons, Mavs, Suns.

I can't wait to see what will happen next season, it's all coming back to where it started. Those teams that once made noise in the playoffs. Those "playoff years" where the ratings are very high., and it's a "Finals-type" of first-round.

Here's my standings for next year:

WC:

1a Spurs

1b Lakers

3 Maverick

4 Suns

5 Kings

6 Utah

7 Warriors

8 Blazers

EC:

1a Celtics

1b Pistons

3 Magic

4 Cleveland

5 Bulls

6 Raptors

7 Washington

8 New Jersey

Do you agree? What are your thoughts for the next season?

Next NBA season?nba league pass

I would have to agree with you, the next NBA season seems to be setting its self up to be a good one, although there are a few changes i would make to your standings.

West:

1a. Lakers

1b. Mavericks

3. Suns

4. Spurs

5. Jazz

6a. Kings

6b. Hornets

8a. Warriors

8b. Blazers

East:

1a. Celtics

1b. Pistons

3. Magic

4. Cavs

5. Raptors

6. Wizards

7. Nets

8. Bulls

The western conference is going to be even more of a powerhouse than it has been in recent memory, with so many good players unhappy with where they are, you might see them move to "contenders", many of which are in the west.

And for everyone who says the Kings are going to suck next year, they have so many good players this year that are finally coming around and players that are great bargaining pieces, that it would be very idiotic to count them out of next years playoff race in the west.

Next NBA season?nba tv ,nba teams

SPURS ARE TOO OLD..

LAKERS ARE GONNA TAKE IT!!!!!..

you must be a KINGs fan.. cuz theyre gonna SUCK next year!!!!!!
i agree but kings is not going to make it no artest,bibby
Blazers #8 next year with the arrival of Big Greg.... put them up at least to #5.
Too early to tell. Way to early. Trades, drafts, free agency, injuries. All these things will unfold between now and the playoffs next year and they can all effect a team very seriously.

Also, to the guy above. Artest and Bibby are playing pretty well. I'm pretty sure that Artest will be traded before the deadline and Mike may also go but anything Sac gets for Artest will likely improve the team since he's a huge pain in the a$s on and off the court. He also slows down the offense hinders the development of the younger guys like Kevin Martin who will one day be among the best in the NBA. Trust that.

Getting rid of Bibby doesn't make the team better but freeing up all that money he's making sure would if you use it to pick up a big time free agent and that's their plan.
1. Lakers

2. Suns

3.Spurs

4. Mavs

5. Jazz

6. Hornets

7.Blazers

8. Nuggets (remember them as the #8 seed with Mutumbo beating the sonics in the 1st rd)

East:

1. Boston

2. Pistons

3. Magic

4. Raptors

5. Cavs

6. Bulls

7. Wizards

8. Bobcats (laugh, but they are young and can only get better haha)
I agree with almost everything. Where are the New Orlean Hornets. They have the third best record in the NBA. I don't think they'll go away that quickly.

Do you hear who players play both NBA and MLB baseball same time and season?

I think anybody can play NBA season during Winter then switch MLB baseball summer. If you knew in the past any players who played both NBA and MLB, give me name for players.

Do you hear who players play both NBA and MLB baseball same time and season?nba gear

Correction please, guys. MICHAEL JORDAN DIDN'T PLAY IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL BUT RATHER IN THE MINOR LEAGUE. His team, the Birmingham Barons was the Chicago White Sox's farm team, meaning a minor league team.

To answer the question, I don't think there has been any player who played both in the NBA and MLB at the same time and season. Danny Ainge was once an major leaguer with the Toronto Blue Jays, but he left baseball once he was drafted by the Celtics.

Do you hear who players play both NBA and MLB baseball same time and season?nba finals 2007 ,nba teams

I know Michael Jordan retired from basketball and tried to play baseball for a season and wasn't very succesful.

Danny Ainge of the Boston Celtics was a professional baseball player before he played basketball.

But i don't think there has been a player who has played both at the same time on the professional level.

Nickster
NBA and MLB schedule overlaps in April, May and June not to mention that February and March is training camp for MLB and October for NBA.
Michael Jordan.
Not in the same season but MJ did for the bulls then the cubs
MJ who wore # 45 during MLB then back to #45 with Bulls.

What will you remeber most about the 2006 NBA season ?

The NBA league thinks steve nash deserves the MVP trophy AGAIN !!!! But when and if we looked back at this season 10 years from now will we say look how good Steve Nash passes the ball. Or will we say Kobe finally came of age and had a great season. Or will we say Detriot had an amazing team and Chauncy Billups was the key ?

What will you remeber most about the 2006 NBA season ?nba statistics

The 2006 in my opinion was a very good year for the NBA. The Dunk Contest being brought back to life with Nate Robinson and Iguodoa (not sure on the spelling). The night Kobe scored 81 points. Most people look at that night as selfishness, but when a player is hot, you do not stop passing him the ball. If I was on his team or his coach and he kept making baskets why stop passing him the ball? This isn't Jr High basketball where moms are going to complain to you saying they wanted to see their son shoot the ball. This is the pros and if you want to win you cannot stop a hot shooter. Steve Nash helped the suns once again be the top scoring team in the nation which he has done for the past 3 years. Kobe Bryant scoring over 40 points a game for like 4 games in a row or something like that. And I was anxious to see Detroit get over 70 wins but they didnt make it that far :( . Also seeing the playoffs this year has been good so far. It seems to be alot more physical this year which is bad and good but more teams are more desperate to win which makes watching the playoffs more interesting.

What will you remeber most about the 2006 NBA season ?nba store ,nba teams

Yes, Kobe dropping 81 is an amazing feat. However, the most memorable and miraculous event of this season was the Clippers winning a playoff series! This is one of those, "never in a million years!" kind of event. I will never forget the year the impossible happened.
I will remember the day Kobe dropped 81 on the Toronto Raptors. Everyone still talks about Chamberlin's 100 but most of us never got to witness that. WEll Kobe's feat was pretty close.
Got to be Kobe and the 81 points he put up in a single game. Or perhaps was it Kobe Bryant's string of 40+ point games. Or maybe how he matured an entire team and took them from what was thought to be a most miserable season to a lead against this year's supposed MVP Steve Nash with high flying centers/forwards and outside shooting to die for?!?!

I respect a team effort, but let's face it, the individual talent in Detroit fits into one of Shaq's shoes while Kobe kicks Shaq along with his shoes out of town.

And, Kobe is not done improving himself or his team. Just look at what he has helped the Lakers do in the playoffs thus far.
I will remember that NCAA basketball is much more enjoyable.
Orlando Magic trading Steve Francis and almost making it to the play offs
Mo Williams made game winning jumpers
Kobe's 81 pts. The lakers beating detroit and san antonio and the new orleans team coming back
i will remember that it is the year that i realized it is a dying league:(
kobe scoreing 81 points....KOBE 4 MVP!!!!
INCLUDING PLAYOFFS: NBA FINALS

NOT INCLUDING PLAYOFFS: When "BIg Shot Show-Off" scored 82 points getting eighteen points away from record achieved by Wilt Chamberlain on March 2, 1962. But, Kobe got four more points than the old runner-up once again achieved by Chamberlain.

http://www.nba.com/knicks/tickets/tix_ho...

What NBA team(s) could be sleepers during the 2007-2008 season?

In the East, I believe the Bobcats are a sleeper team. They finally have a go-to scorer with Richardson which opens up a lot for the rest of the team: Felton will take fewer shots and can become more of a pass-first point guard and both Gerald Wallace and Okafor will take fewer shots which means they can spend more energy on the defensive end. Matt Carroll's a beast behind the 3-point line and Walter Herrmann emerged near the end of last year as a versatile scorer. Also, with the draft of all-around forward Jared Dudley and the current mix of veterans and young guys on the bench, I believe this team has a chance to surprise some people and maybe make some noise in the playoffs...if they can stay healthy.

This is my east sleeper team and I really cannot come up with a sleeper team for the west. Who do you think will be sleeper teams of the 2007-2008 NBA season?

What NBA team(s) could be sleepers during the 2007-2008 season?nba shop

east:

bucks - they were a playoff contender last year before redd's attempted dunk during a garbage time in denver that cost him to sideline for months. they have a young core in mo wiliams, bogut, villanueva, redd, charli bell and yi.

bobcats - i agree with you. they are also my sleepers in the east. with a healthy frontcourt of g dub and okafor plus matt carroll, adam morrison and j rich, they will have a reason to believe.

hawks - with joe johnson, one of the most versatile offensive players plus the beast on the defensive end josh smith and rookies horford and acie law, this team will be good.. plus young projects josh childress and marvin williams, big men shelden and pachulia, they'll improve their record from last year.

west:

grizzlies - im picking them to be the number 8 seed out west. remember that a pau gasol healthy year equals a playoff appearance for the last couple of years for this team. they have nice off season pick ups in casey jacobsen, milicic and navarro, one of the best in europe. they also have a young point guard with a lot of potential in mike conley jr.

hornets- a healthy hornets team will make a run in post season.cp3 is one of the best at his position plus the improving tyson chandler and david west and vets peja, bobby jackson and mo pete.. this team should do good this coming season.

What NBA team(s) could be sleepers during the 2007-2008 season?nba schedules ,nba teams

I don't see Philly being a sleeper team. They do have some young talent...but too many teams in the East got better, while they did nothing. But hey, they had no business winning games last year either.

If I had to pick a sleeper, I'd look in the general direction of the Milwaukee Bucks. This team has too much talent to be a bottom feeder again.

Redd

Charlie V

Bogut

Bobby Simmons

Mo Williams

Charlie Bell (for now)

Yi

Desmond Mason

If Yi turns out to be anything special, they should be alright.

They're gonna have a lethal inside-outside combo with Redd and Mason complementing Bogut and Villanueva

I also think the Grizz and Hornets can make some noise out West. Bobcats in the East is a good choice. They are indeed loaded.

.
My pick is the chicago bulls

why?

bcuz they r very underrated. every1 thinks that it will either be

Boston, Detriot or Miami and maybe even cleveland to win the east but no one thinks it will be the chicago bulls.

They got the most talent in the east. With hinrich at PG, gordon at SG, Deng at SF, Smith at PF and wallace at C added to that is an excellent bench with players such as Tyrus Thomas, thabo sefolosha, andres nocioni, chris duhon and rookies joakim noah, Aaron gray. They also have one of the best coaches in scott skiles

The will take the east no doubt and they are the sleeper team of the 2007-2008 season.
Pistons. They will do alot better than last year and avenge the Cavs
The Bobcats. They've improved. But let's see if Jordan's still got the touch...
east sleeper is definitely the Bobcats.....

west sleeper is hard to tell
East 76ers

West Hornets
i think most people is bias with they answer but for some reason am feeling Memphis. i don't really have a favorite team but i can see the Nets Vs Suns in the final.
watch out for the Pacers, I think that organization is tired of not winning and is gonna do somethin' about it.
toronto raptors
These teams definitely have the talent, but they just have to put it together.

East - Milwaukee %26amp; NY

West - NO %26amp; Denver
The sleeper team in the East is New Jersey Nets. They actually have a center to play this year. Jefferson is back from injury. Kidd has a new backup so he can play fewer minutes and stay fresh for the playoffs.

The sleeper team in the West is surprisingly, Dallas. They are ready to win 60 plus games again and will go far.
76ers they won 9 out of their final 15 games and Igoudala is mature and Andre Miller can pass.
I agree with Bobcats on the East. They've made the biggest improvements on their team that will kick in immediately. The loss of Sean May will be hard on them, but I think Walter Herrmann will have a really good opportunity to shine.

On the west, I'm going to say Memphis. With a healthy Gasol, the addition of Navarro and Conley, and the breakout of Gay, I think they'll have a solid chance of being a surprise in the West.

How tall is LeBron James in the 2008 NBA Season???

I think he is taller that his listed height of 6-8 in NBA.com, and i heard he was measured at 6'7 1/4" in his rookie season with the Cleveland Cavaliers, but right now he looks like he is 6-9 barefeet, when i saw him along side Dwight Howard and Chris Bosh in the all star game.

I think NBA should upgrade his height listing in their main website, and he would be remembered as one of the best all around player since Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird for a guy that is taller than 6'8".

LeBron is one of the most gifted athlete in the NBA today, and i am really proud that he lived up to his expectation since the Cavs drafted him as the first overall pick in the 2003 NBA Draft..

How tall is LeBron James in the 2008 NBA Season???nba live 2005

He is a huge 6-8, 250 pound freak.
6'81/2

he's probably above 6'8" but not taller than 6'9". he is already one of the best all-around player in the league now.
probably 6-8 1/2 but definitley over 6-9 with shoes

'96 bulls '85 lakers

but i think the lakers would win
96 bulls, 72-10, nuff said.
To the guy that said "2003-04 lakers would rock all these teamsn... shaq malone kobe gary payton and derek fisher or brian cook man thats the team rite there but out of ur list"; the Pistons spanked that team in the actual '04 finals. I don't see how you could pick that team. If you never learned how to spell, at least learn how to use spell check.

1989 Pistons vs. 1985 Lakers

Pistons win

Who has the most potential in the NBA next season that did make the playoffs this year?

Who has the most potential in the NBA that did make the playoffs this year?

- The Atlanta Hawks - This team is so close a contender in the NBA. They have a solid roster with Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, Marvin Willams, Josh Childress, Zaza Pachulia, Salim Stodemire, and they also have a ton of cap room %26amp; the #3 and #11 draft picks in this years NBA draft.

- The Charlotte Bobcats - This team is stacked with good big men and atlethic forwards and guards. They have Emeka Okafor, Gerald Wallace, Raymond Felton, Sean May. They just need to be able to gel together.

- New York Knicks - They have some of the most talented players in the NBA but do not know how to use them. Stephon Marbury, Steve Francis, Eddy Curry, Quentin Richardson, Jamal Crawford, the list goes on ...... but the Knicks havent lived up to it since the 99 NBA season.

- The Trail Blazers - GREG ODEN is coming no need to worry - Oden, Aldrige, Roy, Randolph, and Jack will do the playoff biddin %26amp; future finals bidding.

Atlanta because they have a mvp but a more like a 38.5% of winning out of four!

Have you ever seen an NBA regular season as exciting as this one?

Since when have there ever been so many powerhouse teams in one conference--a conference that cannot even claim to house the league's best team so far! I have never seen teams under such pressure to acquire that additional marquee talent just to stay afloat in their own conference. The abundance of legitimate contenders seems to be putting heavy strains on GM's all over if they want any real chance of winning it all this year. Just makes you wonder who's going to make a move next? Is Dallas going to pull something off so that people start talking about them now? After all, they were the "team to beat" last year, and there's been almost zero buzz about them the last couple weeks, even with their impressive record.

I think this season just reeks with excitement like none I've ever experienced. Has there ever been an NBA season with one conference so top-heavy as this year's West? I know it's only halfway through, but I don't see any of those top five slipping much.

Have you ever seen an NBA regular season as exciting as this one?2006 nba draft

its been a long time since i could remember all the power teams being in 1 conference. i mean the only real teams in the east are boston and detroit. while in the west you have 10 legit teams. i mean the nets are still in the playoffs picture as the 8th seed and they are like what? 7 games under .500? while teams like the warriors who are 8th in the west, are 11 games over .500 and struggling to keep that spot. the wizards lose 8 straight and they are still the 6th seed. i mean the eastern conference is just so bad, it's laughable. if the warriors or nuggets or rockets lost 8 straight forget the playoffs.

Have you ever seen an NBA regular season as exciting as this one?nba schedule ,nba teams

i dont think have have seen any shift in power like this
The western conference is insane. A number 10 seed in the west would be a number 3 or 4 seed in the east , LMAO.
Maybe not one conference dominating like this, but there might have been more interesting seasons. The 87-88 season when 4 teams from the East and 4 from the West were legit contenders was pretty tough to beat from a spectator's standpoint. This was the year that MJ stole the show at the all-star game in Chi-town, and begins his dominance over the league becoming the only player to win the M.V.P. and the defensive player of the year award (because they said he couldn't play D) He also single handedly eliminated the Cavs from the playoffs, and fought the aging Celtics tooth and nail. On the West, the Lakers swept through the first round, later to fight for 7 games each series en route to a 2nd consecutive title. The playoffs that year were phenomenal. The following year expansion to Charlotte, Miami, Minnesota and Orlando was announced. The talent level league wide was so good at that point. So ya, there have been some classic years.
flat out this year is the best

look, the 8th seed in the West is only 5 games behind the 1st seed, how crazy is that?
I have several times. For instances, 2000-01, or 1990-91.

I have prediction right here Knicks in 07-08 yeahhhh!
Lakers will surprise the haters, while Kobe wins MVP..
Magloire, although not having one of his better seasons in the past couple of years really adds a lot to the Nets. They are going to be good, but not as good as the Celtics.

I wouldn't bet money on Dallas or Phoenix though. They will flirt with winning 70 during the regular season, but flirt with first round playoff sweeps as well.
easy as the nets are going all the way
GO KNICKS!

Which do you think is more tasking, the nba season or the european soccer league season?

For those of you who aren't familiar with the european soccer league season, teams play about 40 games a season on a 100 by 70 metre pitch. Each game lasts 90 minutes, if you add local cup competitions and the uefa champions league, some teams play approximately 65-70 or so games a season.In the nba, teams play 48 minute games (+overtime in some cases) on a 28 by 15 metre court. Each team plays 82 games a season and those that reach the playoffs depending on how far they go, play approximately 120-130 games a season. Which do u feel is more tasking?

Which do you think is more tasking, the nba season or the european soccer league season?nba draft order

The European Soccer League Season...

Which do you think is more tasking, the nba season or the european soccer league season?nba draft history ,nba teams

i fink both becoz sports not vary easy 2 play.
obviously football/soccer wins this round
sure,the uefa
Is this serious?

Your having a laugh, right?

All real football (soccer as u call it) requires more fitness levels than any American sports. Have you seen them?

Basketball, ha ha ha -- you're a proper little joker.

Basketball is a walk in the park, damn it is not even taxing on the health.
i agree with Egbert Fleur

Would you say this was the most exciting NBA season ever?

Things that happened this seasoned:

1) KG %26amp; Allen to Boston, what a turnaround

2) Pau Gasol to LA, what a robbery

3) Jason Kidd from Jersey to Dallas and the Devean George veto

4) Shaq to Phoenix

5) 8 teams in the West get 50 wins

6) Jason Kidd got his 100th career triple double on the last day of the season

7) The Lakers and Hornets emergence

8) The Rockets 22 game winning streak

9) Lebron's Oscar Robertson like season

10) Kobe wanting to jump ship at the start, and may end up as MVP.

11) Dwight Howard's superman dunk at the All-Star game

12) Increasing television ratings for the NBA

13) The Playoffs haven't even started! Look at the 1st round matchups...(LA vs. Denver), (SA vs. Phoenix), (Houston vs. Utah), (Dallas vs. N.O.), (Detroit vs. Philly), %26amp; (Cavs vs. Wizards)

Feel free to add to the list, I may be missing something.

So would you say this was the most exciting NBA season ever?

Would you say this was the most exciting NBA season ever?nba live 2006

It was a pretty exciting year. It all depends on what team you are a fan of. Obviously if you are a heat fan you would think this season sucked. Other than that there was a lot of excitement that happened this year. Many good trades and a really good playoff race in the West. Personally I think it was one of the most exciting seasons in recent history.

Would you say this was the most exciting NBA season ever?nba gear ,nba teams

I think that it is...of this decade. every decade has one spectacular season. this is the best season of this decade so far. to me the second best season of this decade so far would have to be the 2002-2003 season.
All that was good for the nba.

Now they need a reemergence of a lakers/celtics finals.

with LA beating the Celtics in 7 with a game winning shot from kobe.
yep i have to say it was so exciting to watch..each and every player in the western conference had to play their hearts out for 82 games, none of them rested! this was truly amazing
The Western Conference was the most competitive and most exciting in NBA history

PERIOD

its gonna get even more competitive next year
I think it is..because of the big 3 of the celtics...the shufflings of players...maybe the come back of kobe as the mvp...and also the good performance hornets..
Nope the shorten 50 game season was the best~~shorten the season and the playoffs should be One and done~
I definitely agree with you; the Western conference playoff race was the most impressive thing to me.
Definitely one of the best and most unpredictable seasons in a long time.
it was a good season for transactions. some big deals were made. I would say that was really exciting.
No. The NBA is never exciting anymore. The good ole' days are gone.
heck yea. espeially the west
A lot of good chess moves; however, basketball has not been as exciting as it was in the 1980's:

Bird v. Magic, NCAA Finals

Magic playing all 5 positions in his first year in a playoff game

Lakers v. 76ers; Dr. J, Mo Cheeks %26amp; Moses Malone!

Lakers v. Celtics

Magic, James Worthy, Kareem, Cooper, Rambis, Norm Nixon/Byron Scott, et al v. Bird, McHale, The Chief, Ainge, M.L. Carr, DJ, et al

The emergence of the Bad Boys from Detroit

Celtics v. Pistons, The Chief clobbering Bill Laimbeer for a prior cheap shot.

Lakers v. Pistons

Portland had a good team; Clyde the Glide, Terry Porter, Cliff(ord) Robinson and "How much is a Duckworth?"

The emergence of MJ %26amp; the Bulls

The Laker Girls

Benoit Benjamin; will he bring a right and a left shoe to a game? Who's career shall he end in practice this time?

What an Era!
Yes, for now, but it could even be a better season that awaits in the future. U forgot Gilbert Arenas early sneaky return he wasn't even supposed to play, lol. Don't forget the Sixers trun around and Wizards had still made the playoffs when Gilbert Arenas was hurt. The Hawks made the playoff in about ten years, and the Hornets and Magic are in the playoffs two. The Jazz, Magic , and Hornets are a good teams now, i remember when they sucked a few years ago.
i would say yes and its gonna get even better w/ the p-offs

WEST- any one in the west could take home the tittle i mean with what the top 6 teams in the west 2+1/2 game apart and then all of them could beat Boston or Detroit

EAST- sure not as power full but the likely east championship math up of BOSTON-DETROIT definitely a 7 game heavyweight fight and dont count out Cleveland or Orlando or maybe even Washington

so yes one of the best seasons and i didn't even talk about the possible finals match ups
YES, it has been a great season, hard to say if its the most exciting ever, mainly because the playoffs are yet to begin!! The NBA sure is on its way back up to the status it once held in the days of MJ, Magic, and Bird!! Exciting for sure!!!

One other thing i would add on to that list of exciting things that happened this season:

The unpredictable Blazers and their winning streak at the beginning of the season!!

Also #1 pick Greg Oden being hurt for the whole year!!

Now that the NBA season is over...what will happen next season?

Now that the NBA season is over (not including the playoffs) what is your prediction for next year's playoffs?

Spurs will be 6th seed, while Jazz takes 4(division leader), and Suns 5th seed.

Rockets will be 2nd(dude seeing how they performed without yao, how can you put them behind 2 aging team(suns and Spurs))

Magic will just get better and will get 2nd seed over the Psitons, while the Cavs will probably do worse.

Hornets will be 3rd, they will do just as well, but Lakers and Rockets will be better, given they are healthy of course.

keep a close eye on kobe alot of news will come out of LA and big changes this year if not bye bye kobe
probably possible trades or predictions on how teams are gonna do next season, or people hating players like nash ,dirk, and kobe.
we are gonna talk about how the cavs won the finals
after the finals, we are all about trades and signings!!! I love that part of the year!
maybe the league and the fans could talk about how we can get rid of the San Antonio Spurs. They're the plague in this league, and many many fans across the world have turned their backs against the game because of their capability to win games with their dirty plays. Save the NBA, by getting rid of the Spurs organization.

If NBA season started all over again....?

If the NBA season started all over again and evryone's record 0-0 and no one was injured every player was 100% healthy. And the players who got traded is on the team they got traded to, example: Shaq will still be in the Suns, Kidd is still in Dallas, Marion is still playing for the Heats. Who would win out of the list and why?:

Nuggets VS Mavericks

Hornets VS Celtics

Cavaliers VS Lakers

Spurs VS Pistons

Suns VS Rockets

Heats VS Nets

Magics VS Wizards

Warriors VS Jazz

If NBA season started all over again....?nba merchandise

Nuggets - Jason Kidd Is Too Overrated

Celtics - KEVIN GARNETT

Lakers - Kobe and Gasol and Bynum healthy unstopable

Pistons - Because Of Their Bench

Rockets - Look at what happened tonight

Heat - Wade, Marion will be magic

Magic - Arenas is too selfish

Jazz - Because they are at home

If NBA season started all over again....?2003 nba draft ,nba teams

1. I'll have the mav's over the nuggets. the nuggets are a very bad defensive team and even if the season started over 10times that wont change. So i got dallas to win.

2. Celtics got too much for the hornets, i still think the hornets aint a dominant team like the celtics or lakers. they got a long way to go, but they are goin in the right direction. But boston win

3. Lakers win, with the 'triple towers' front court, lebron will be surrounded. Lakers win. this is a blow-out.

4. This is a match-up between the top defensive teams in the NBA. It depends on who's court its on, if its in detroit i got detroit if its in san antonio i got the spurs.

5. Rockets beat phoenix without a full team, so with yao back, t-mac all healthy, houston will burn phoenix.

6. I just don't think the heat would be the same if they started fresh. So ill take marion, wade and the heat to win narrowly.

7. Wizards. This is a blow-out, with stevensen, arenas, jamison and butler, the wiz got too much for orlando to handle.

8. Jazz will murder the warriors in utah and will just hold on to win in golden state.
Mavericks-chicken nuggets got no D

Celtics

Lakers

Spurs

Rockets

Nets

Wizards

Jazz

Critique my Newspaper article/ NBA Season Update?

This NBA season features one of the tightest Western Conferences, and the rise of a monster in the East (Boston Celtics). Trades in this season include Shaquille “The Big Cactus” O’Neal heading to the high-powered Phoenix Suns in exchange for Shawn Marion; Spanish star Forward/Center Pau Gasol heading to the L.A. Lakers in a seemingly impossible trade which dealt 2001 draft-bust Kwame Brown and rookie Javaris Crittenton to the Memphis Grizzlies; veteran All-star Point Guard Jason Kidd heading to the Dallas Mavericks in a blockbuster deal which sent Devin Harris and DeSagna Diop over to the New Jersey Nets; and a 3-way trade that sent Ben Wallace, Josh Smith, Delonte West, Wally Sczerbiak to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Larry Hughes and Drew Gooden to the Chicago Bulls, and Chris Duhon, Ira Newble, and Donyell Marshall to the Seattle Supersonics.

Question for NBA season ticket holders ...?

Is anyone familiar with the "Cheer now, Pay later" program that most NBA teams are offering for the playoffs/season tickets? If so, how does this system work? I recently purchased season tickets for NEXT season and my ticket rep told me that I am eligible for the cheer now, pay later program that will allow me playoff tickets for this season as well. From what he told me, they ship the playoff tickets to you and you are only charged for whatever tickets are scanned at the door (games you go to). I question this because how would they know if everyone in the "cheer now, pay later" program will actually attend all of the playoff games? To me, it doesn't make sense because they could sell those tickets for people in the program that are not attending all of the games. Anyone familiar with this? Is there a hidden charge? He did not tell me about any charge for this other than "you will be charged for games you go to"

NBA season !!!?

when does the NBA season start and when does it finish ??

NBA season !!!?nba street v3

Novembet 1st and it ends in late april...if you count the playoffs it ends in june. I can't wait to see my favorite player Kobe dunk over that overrated Wade!

NBA season !!!?nba jam ,nba teams

It starts on October 31st, and goes until mid-June. Well for the Lakers because Kobe is highly over rated so the weakass lakers won't be making the playoffs this year.
this year it starts oct. 31. and it ends in late april like the 3rd week and then the playoffs go till mid june
November 1st

I dont know when it ends cuz the playoffs could go pretty long

Best NBA season in ... a while?

you have everybody fighting for spots in the west. the 8th seed is only like 4.5 games back from the Lakers. you have the boston celtics going from awful to .. incredible. rockets winning 20 straight... ( and not even in first place in the west ) all the trades.. shaq to the suns (interested to see how that turns out) mvp race.. kobe .. lebron maybe chris paul.. kg

anyway.. havent seen the nba doing so well and been so interesting in a while

i love it!

Best NBA season in ... a while?www.nba.com

I agree, think about how this year had trades that changed everything (Celtics, Lakers) and even some that changed a lot (Cavs, Suns). The thought of the top team right now in the west not even making the playoffs is just mind-boggling and so fun to watch! I hope the Rockets at least beat the Bobcats so we can see them take on the Lakers on TV. Oh, that would be so cool.

And yeah, the MVP race. Usually, by now the media has somehow chosen one by now, but guess what, it's really wide open. Kobe and LeBron are the obvious ones, but yeah, Chris Paul or KG or a bunch of others like Iverson or even T-Mac! Who knows??? This should be fun, I hope the playoffs are really good this year with lots of game 7s.

Best NBA season in ... a while?basketball jerseys ,nba teams

Agreed. All the blockbuster trades, i think there are about a total of 50 players who have moved to another team just this season. Plus the tight race in the west is another reason almost every game is a nail biter (at least for the top teams). On the east we have a monster Celtics team, CP3, Howard and of course LBJ. Let's not forget a potential matchup between the Lakers and the Celtics in the finals. All in all, a very exciting season.
for me the best was the rivalry season of the lakers and kings.... one of the best season ever.... but its also a great season this year!!!
well, to me the best was the 93 season... Chicago Bull vs Phoenix Suns...
whoa whoa whoa - you mean best reg. season in a while? The playoffs have a lot to live up to.

The regular season is awesomely interesting because of the Western race - nothing to do with the Eastern Conference though - not enough depth there.
Yes, the top 8 teams out West have 40 wins already and all have a good shot at 50. Four teams in the East have a shot at 50 (Boston, Detroit, Cleveland will get it. Toronto maybe). I predict at least 4 1st round upsets. Orlando could get beat in the 1st round and Phoenix, Dallas, and the giant-killer warriors could win in the 1st round depending on their match-ups. Who knows what else could happen!
only if your watching the west, or the one of the top 3 teams in the east.
EVER

10 teams from the West could end up with 50 wins and not even make the playoffs...if you're in the East, 50 wins could give you a top 3 seed
Yup, it's great being a fan today. It's great B-Ball being played all over the league.

Every game in the West means something, i love it too. The best Basketball since i was little when u had The Bird and Magic match ups.

can anyone tell me who is in the playoffs from each confrence, seed numbers, good players this year?

thanks!

For the teams in the playoffs and their seeds, you can just go to the website: http://www.nba.com

There's a bracket.

As for whose been good this season, we'll look at the top MVP candidates:

1. Kobe Bryant - still doing what he does, best all around player in the league

2. Chris Paul - taken his team to the number 2 spot in the playoffs while leading the league with 11apg

3. Kevin Garnett - the heart and soul of the team with the best record in the league

NBA season 08?nba playoff ,nba teams

well MVP is ben gordon of the bulls who also won an amazing 81 games this season, the worst team was the pistons after the majority of the team caught diarehea after eating some of isiah thomas home made cookies, and by the way isiah is a unanimous coach of the year. that guy is a genious. and also shaq beat kobe up during a game and gave him a piledriver ending kobes career
Here's my analysis

Lakers were the story of the year right up there with Boston, both in which have experienced ups and downs. Lakers are no. 1 in the west and as is Boston. The west this year is the most competitive of all time. The team to get eliminated last the warriors had 49 wins and all teams in the west seeds 1 thru 8 all had 50 wins. The lakers will play denver

NBA season tickets, how does this work?

Ok, so say I buy season tickets to a team next year. Do they give me 41 tickets, 1 for each game or what??? because I won't be able to make each and every game so could I sell individual tickets out so I can get some money back for them???

NBA season tickets, how does this work?nba hoops

hewe in new orleans it works like this.. you get 41 tickets for all th ehome games plus any preseason games.. BUT if you dont think u can make all the games... there is something called a Half season ticket package. where u only have to buy like 21 games. and there are also 10 and 15 game packages that you can buy. 41 games is a lot of games to attend.....ticketexchange is an option that u can use to sell your tix. or craigslist.....

NBA season tickets, how does this work?nba 2k7 ,nba teams

Yes. You get a ticket for each game. You are welcome to sale the tickets that you will not use. There are several online sites that assist season ticket holders with selling their unwanted tickets. Some professional teams have also began to offer ticket trade in options.
you get tickets for all home games. if you can't make all the games, just give the tickets for that game away to friends or sell them(just don't get caught).

Can all teams be selected for PS3 NBA 2K7 Season mode?

It looks like there is a maximum of 8 teams that be selected for the PS3 NBA 2K7 season mode. Can't all teams be selected?

Stevie, you are probably looking at a Division, not the whole league list of teams. All teams are available for a season. Second, are you sure you wouldn't rather play in The Association mode? That is the much deeper Dynasty-style mode.

Does the team that wins and has the best record for the regular season in the NBA get a trophy of so

If they don't, then what is the purpose of the 82 game regular season besides the fact of having the #1 seed and home court advantage throughout the playoffs? It doesn't make sense at all. I think professional soccer leagues in Europe have got it right over sports here in America. They crown a regular season champ with a trophy and have a separate tournament during the duration of the regular season that crowns that winner of the tournament. It seems pointless that the NBA regular season doesn't mean anything. Case in point, the Spurs. Not always the best team in the season, but come playoffs they "magically" win it.

Does the team that wins and has the best record for the regular season in the NBA get a trophy of some sort?nba tickets

Their trophy is home-court advantage throughout the playoffs.

Does the team that wins and has the best record for the regular season in the NBA get a trophy of some sort?nba fights ,nba teams

Well, yeah basically your trophy is that #1 seed and home court. But you get a banner for winning your division. But whats not so great is the fact that if u get that #1 seed, the pressure is on u to perform great and win it all.

Well, at the half point of the season, the team with the best record in their respected conference has their coach coach the All star game.

Is this the most competitive NBA regular season of all-time?

I can't remember a season when I have been more excited about the NBA standings - specifically the Western Conference. Every night there's bound to be a few games involving the top teams. I can't fathom a team as dangerous and exciting as the Warriors missing out on the playoffs but it's very likely they could.

Is this the most competitive NBA regular season of all-time?nba mock drafts

Wow, this is the most exciting year ever. The West could have 9 teams to win 50 games and one of them will be left out of the playoff, wow, that's insane. The West top 8 teams that's fighting for the playoff is separate only by 6 games, the top team in the West is only leading the #8 team by only 6 games, this is crazy competitive. If any teams lose a couple games in a row they can fall from top to #3 in a matter of no time. So look for an exciting end to the regular season and look for a more exciting playoff year ever.

Is this the most competitive NBA regular season of all-time?nba street ,nba teams

For the East: NO! not at all only a couple of good, competitive teams.

West: YES! one of the best in history look at all those great teams fighting for a playoff spot if there was a team that was a couple spots out of the playoffs in the west and put them in the east, they'd be the top 5 team! thats how competitive it is! If your #1 in the west or upper seed and lose a couple then your out of the picture..very competitive
yeah it is one of the most competitive that i have ever witnessed. except for in the eastern conference. all the east has is detriot, boston, orlando, and maybe... maybe cleveland. the west is so tight and nobody can afford to lose even 2 games. it is going to be crazy interesting at the end of the season. "where amazing happens" is going to happen alot
yes. 50 players have been traded IN FEBRUARY ONLY including 10 draft picks. if you include the other months it would be the celtics trade which got them to have the best record in the league so far and the heat/timberwolves trade. Teams are trading their superstars away, such as jason kidd and pau gasol. its been very competitve and lots of teams want to win a championships now. it looked like the celtics would win the championships for the whole first half of the season but now, who knows?

its been competitve mostly in the west though. ten teams all worthy to be in the playoffs are competing to get in the playoffs. a two game losing streak might send you from first to sixth (mavs before) and a 14 game winning streak can send you from ninth place to 7th place only (rockets). if ninth place denver moved to the east they would be 3rd.

the east has been very quiet except for the two teams with th best record (boston and detroit) have been making some noise, but that is all they got
yep in the west

2 teams could end up with 50 wins in the West and not even make the playoffs while they could easily end up with a top 3 seed in the pathetic East
all I got to say is GO WARRIORS.
its all about the Lakers....and yes...this is a very competitive NBA season...
In the west

The correct answer is 11 times

Jordan did lead the league in points per game 10 times. But, he also led the league in TOTAL POINTS SCORED in his rookie year.

However, Bernard "Cocaine" KING had the highest ppg average that season because he only played in 55 games to Jordan's 82.

I'm not sayin this to be mean or anything, but give up the dream. Your not getting any younger for one. I mean, you say your 27? Most people are drafted, signed, traded, released and out of the NBA by that age. "IF" they make it. Only a small handful of people make it in the NBA, even for people with mad talent don't make it because of their lack of exposure. Not going to college, or not trying hard enough in high school was the biggest mistake you made. I say, try to hire an agent and get you a work out or something. If not then, go tocollegeor find a career.
Uh 1st off you need to be in the NBA and you have to hire a agent and also you would have to had gone tocollegeso the NBA teams can know who you are. And if you didint get drafted then its called. Your in the free agent poll.
Think you can handle it? Nobody makes it withoutcollegeor high school experience.
When you grow up, try and playcollegeball after high school and you might get noticed.
you need to head to the park leagues in the cities in the summer -take a look at the new york papers sports sections to see the games played.
can you dribble?
Make a tape of your mad skills. Hire me as you agent...yeah, you can call me Jerry McGuire. My people will talk to their people...you will get your day on the court.

Guess who will be this year 2006-2007 season NBA MVP?!?

I think its hard because it could be Nash or Nowitzki but for now I think it is Dirk because they both average a double double this season and dallas leads the west and the standings on NBA...

Guess who will be this year 2006-2007 season NBA MVP?!?nba store

That is a hard question. It depends on your definition of MVP(the player most valuable to their team or the best player in the league in general.) Dirk is the leader of the best team in the NBA (the Mavs) and he is avg over 25 ppg and over 9.5. reb., while Nash numbers are up from both his MVP seasons. Nash has more All-Stars to work with than Dirk (Marion and Stoudemire -vs- Howard:a West Alternate), however Nash is less expendable than Dirk on his team (the 1-3 record to Sub .500 teams without Nash before the All Star Break.) Since I think it is a stalemate between them, the MVP should go to Dirk, because Dirk actually plays defense with Avery Johnson at the helm -vs- Nash and D'Antoni's system with the Suns.

Guess who will be this year 2006-2007 season NBA MVP?!?nba salary ,nba teams

Dirk Nowitzki
It is either going to be Dirk or Nash. Nash is still the better player at his position because no other point guard is better than him. Averaging almost 11 assists and 20 points is amazing. Dirk is averaging a double-double as well, but I can name at least 5 other power forwards who are averaging a double-double. Nash is the only point guard with a double-double. The probability of him winning a 3rd in a row is slim, but he still has the best chance.
It will be Dirk this year. His numbers are better than Nash's (avg double-double points %26amp; rebounds), and is leading his team to the league's best record.

Nash is a nice player but 3-time MVP? I don't think so. Even Michael Jordan, arguably the best player EVER didn't win back-to back-to back MVPs.

The odds are against Nash winning it again this year.
I guess Dirk because the Mavs are going to have the leagues best record. Nash and the Suns will have the second best record.
steve nash or gilbert areanas
Dirk Nowitzki
neal,anthony
This is not even a discussion. Nash should easily walk away with his third award in a row. He is averaging career highs, and once again many of his teammates are averaging career highs because of him. He is their heart and soul. Their leader. Look when he went out for a couple games around all star break, the team couldn't win without him steering the ship. What he does that doesn't show up on the stat sheets is unmatched. So I can't see how you can deny him after giving him the first two. He is also a great ambassador to the game. You can't say that he doesnt play defense because thats not his job, nor is it in their game plan. They know this, and this is why they outscore their opponents. And to say that dirk doesnt play with anyone is non sense. Jason terry, howard, they are allstar caliber. Just because they aren't exciting to watch don't mean their not all stars. all stars are chosen because they want to be seen.
Dirk will probobly get it this year for leading his team to the best record. I don't think the voters will give Nash a 3rd in a row.
Either Dirk Nowitzki or Steve Nash. But I think I'd go with Dirk with this one considering the fact that the Suns don't look so impressive in their last few wins while the Mavs continue to win games with greater point difference.
I don't need to guess... I know it will be Steve Nash
I think you dont need to ask because you could see it coming.Dirk is going to win because he has led his team to the best record in the NBA and he is having a career year,statistically speaking.Nash is a strong candidate for that award but I think the media panel would be too reluctant to award him the trophy for 3 years straight so that makes Dirk the best and only candidate for the award,because other players dont seem to be worth for the trophy except for Nash.

1)Kobe Bryant- A great scorer and defender. Doesn't get credit for it, but he is the best rebounder and passer from the sg position.

2)LeBron James- A pg in a sf body. He can score, rebound and pass with the best of them. He'll get better on defense in time.

3) Gilbert Arenas- He was 4th in the league in scoring and doesn't have any help. He really carried his team to the playoff like Lebron and Kobe did.

4)Allen Iverson- Just like the first 3 on the list he sees constant double and triple teams being the main focus of the defense. He avg. a career high 33.4 points a game last season.

5) Dwayne Wade- He's a great slasher and beginning to knock down the jumper. He did great on the big stage the finals. Must improve defensively.
