I give the guy credit for thinking outside of the box and coming up with some legit reasoning that didn’t involve some convoluted formula. Denver is built for the regular season.

This former athletes vs. Brooklyn based bloggers war is getting to the level of Israel vs. Palestine hostility.

Well obviously we need to create a buffer zone.

When they pair Marv Albert with Steve Kerr, it is so awesome. And then they stick Reggie in there and he instantly makes the broadcast 45% less fun

Reggie-ist.

99 percent of folks making NBA predictions are picking LA or Oklahoma City to emerge from the conference and reach the NBA Finals

Going with the Hornets.

Meanwhile Reggie Miller did play basketball and provides precious little by way of basketball analysis…where are the people to turn?

When they pair Marv Albert with Steve Kerr, it is so awesome. They have excellent chemistry. And then they stick Reggie in there and he instantly makes the broadcast 45% less fun.

“Lab geek rats that are somewhere with their pocket squares on their little laptop computer, punching numbers … those things don’t play basketball games for you! Humans play basketball for you! Those geeks, I’m telling you, never played a game in their life!”

Thanks Cheryl.

If you look at the Lakers, Thunder, Clippers and Nuggets, who has the best coach out of that quartet? George Karl, no doubt.

Call me crazy but I’ partial to Clips coach, Cotton Fitzsimmons.

Before the season starts, let’s poll 10 NBA “media personalities” like Reggie Miller and 10 Brooklyn based NBA bloggers. Come up with 16 teams that you think will make the play-off and their seeding. At the end of the season we can just compare the list and see how accurate they were. This former athletes vs. Brooklyn based bloggers war is getting to the level of Israel vs. Palestine hostility.

Aha, it’s the “I’m too dang lazy to remember the stats” argument. Feels too much like work.
