    Man I guess no Dwight = addition by subtraction

    I fully expected Hibbert and David West to take advantage of their lack of an inside defensive presence.

    I did think Jameer could be their x factor though........and also if Danny Granger plays solid. And of course he had to walk and completely bomb that chance.....and guarded by Baby Davis no less (granted he is rather quick big man)....but man if Granger is/has been overrated.

    Let me be the first to say...

    Meh.

    I would like to make note that my favorites are more determined by the passing that goes into the dunk then the dunks themselves. That 3 touch Allez Oup was beautiful.

    Boom goes Hokey!

    And that alley oop you mentioned was actually done in very poor taste (they were up 30 billion on the imploding Blazers), and probably shouldn't have been done in the first place. I'm all for the glitz and glam , but there's a time and place for that (The Freaks come out at night!)

    I c wat u did thur . Cool , cool cool cool.

    For a minute there I thought you thought I was dissing on the Thunder ;) , who everyone knows is the only good thing about the NBA *knock on wood* and saying they won't make it to the Finals is heresy *knock on wood*

    *note: sarcasm may be involved

    This needs to be part of Rondo's routines on the next 2k!

    Over? He just joined Kobe, Nash, Pau, and Artest as an UFA after this season...it'll only get worse now. Especially since the lakers now have three MVP's on their team.
