Re: Official NBA Season Thread
Random question....If these 3 teams got together and each played the other two 10 times(so 20 game schedule) which team would end up with the best record? Suppose they each have a month to practice and international rules:
1. Current UCLA team 2. The 96 Bulls(playing today, so they're all old) 3. The current Greece national team |

Re: Official NBA Season Thread
Really good post KidColin. I agree with pretty much everything you said. They peaked early scoring wise, but I think it's clear Shaq/Jordan and others improved as players and were at their actual peak during those championship runs. Jordan improved his passing and added a lot of range to his game that wasn't there when he was younger, and Shaq definitely had a more polished game as he got older and became a great passer. I think his passing was/and probably still is underrated by your casual fan.
Also, to clarify, I don't think Howard is likely or a favorite to reach Shaq level, but I think the potential is there. He's obviously a physical freak and from everything I've read a really hard worker, so hopefully he can improve his offensive game, passing, and cut down on the turnovers |

Re: Official NBA Season Thread
Assani,
Thanks for this post. I find it both interesting and thought provoking. Also let me point out that I really enjoy you as a poster. Keep up the great work. As for your question, I believe it's nonsense and do not wish to answer it. Regardless, I hope you really enjoy theorizing about competitions between basketball squads in various leagues of varying skills. For us NBA fans, its a magical time of year. Sit back and enjoy my friend- you deserve it. |

Re: Official NBA Season Thread
Just started watching the C's game, 0/10 both teams to start the 2nd. I'm not dumber for watching this, umm, what am I, I dunno, I think I just lost my jumper in this life and the next.

Re: Official NBA Season Thread
KC,
I didn't mean "peak" as in "had their absolute best year" but more like "never got significantly better." Jordan was better from 24-27 than at 23, but he was never really *that* much better. I mean, I'm just saying I don't know how much Dwight can add over what he's currently doing. I doubt he really can add much, given that 24/15 is so good (it's better than KG, Duncan, etc). |

Re: Official NBA Season Thread
Like I said, we need to see how Dwight finishes this year out. If he maintains this for a year (unlikely, but even if he finishes with 23/12 it's nuts), getting just *that* much better puts him on an insane level.
