And I gave him credit for that. It has been amazing and it makes me check each night to see what he is doing.

This is ESPN pushing someone as a superstar immediately instead of giving it time. Guy is playing great but you never see a mention of turnovers.


sorta' like ESPN conceding the NFC to Philly because they spent the most, before any games were played or them sucking Tebow off all season?


ESPN is a world of over hype instead of true sports reporting.


precisely my point

Not really, we need to change things up. The only question is what can we get for him.


Would be nice for him to go to a contender. Lakers need a pg.



If Nash goes to the Lakers then you will hear rage of a magnitude never before witnessed by mankind

I figured it would but that probably is the only contender that could use a pg.

Surprised by this but the latest NBA2k12 roster update has him rated at 69. They did at least say if this continues this will keep bumping him up.

I'd have to see the individual ratings before judging if that's too low. With how they designed the game, the overall isn't as important as the individual ratings in determining how closely the virtual player resembles the real life counterpart.

Also, I love how the big story in the NBA is a guy who came out of nowhere and plays a more fundamentals based game than the typical And1 playground garbage that Stern has devolved the league into.

Suck on that, David Stern.

Stern let arrogance get in his way. Stern once was more about the good of the game over pure star power. The popularity of the NBA in the Bird/Magic/Jordan era got to his head, and now he tries to manufacture stars, rather than let the game itself bring out the stars. Now, Stern is a condescending prick who belittles anyone who questions his decisions, because he can't even defend some of the stupid shit in the NBA.

Goodell does a lot with good intentions - I'll give him that, but he's so obsessed with protecting what he considers the money makers that the quality of the game on the field is starting to suffer due to going too far in the direction of safety. Plus, he's gone overboard with defending trademark to the point where he's starting to alienate those that have placed the NFL in the lofty position it currently occupies - media and the fans.

Selig is just a dumb fuck that got where he is because every owner can fist him like the puppet he is. If baseball wasn't such a great game with a rich history, the MLB probably would have folded shortly after the 94 strike. Let's face it, put that moron in charge of the NBA or NFL in the late 80s, and he would have wiped either league from existence with his ineptitude.

Melo just kills teams. 3 - 8 since he came back from injury.
