Hollingers PHX and HOU predictions are looking great!

lol @ people who brag when the season's like 1/8th over

Especially when you know they'd never hold themselves accountable if they were dead wrong.

Agreed, no way Hollinger will hold himself accountable when he's dead wrong. FWIW I only thought the Rockets prediction was partially bad, I don't think they are a 60-win team, but they could/probably would get very close if they stayed healthy. But that 54 win prediction for PHX was ridiculous as I said in the beginning of the season, and yes if he's right I might just change my name to Hollinger.

It's 100% pointless to dismiss things as dumb and etc. when you don't refute the why. And you never bothered to do that so it doesn't matter if you're right. I'd rather be wrong than to be right for the wrong reasons. You still have time though; what did Hollinger say that was so wrong?

That's if you even read the previews or just looked at the results...

Vyse,

Just stop. It's a holiday weekend. Let's chill.

Also, nice to see a legitimately easy Suns win tonight. Their record is gaudy but it disguises a lot of close wins against bad teams.

Steven A. Smith was just on the Budweiser Hot Seat being grilled by the only bigger douche on TV about the Knicks. Talk about a perfect storm of crap. I'm dumber for having watched.

Looking at Moses right now on vintage NBA. Dang. So strong, not like Ben Wallace strong, Moses has a big ass and a belly, but pretty skinny. Always using his center of gravity to just get position for offensive rebounds. Pretty damn poor as a kid, and rebounding is about hunger. When he came into the ABA right out of Petersburg High, he could stand under the rim, jump straight up, and hit his head on the rim. What the NBA guys couldn't believe when he came in was how a guy his size could get off the floor so quickly. Long arms. Dang.

Moses Malone is among the most underrated HOF'ers of all time. In his prime he was easily the best rebounder in the league and it was him, not Julius Erving, who led the 1983 Sixers to one of the best seasons in NBA history (remember "fo, fo, fo?"). His "problem" is that people may remember him for the last thirty years of his NBA career, which were no great shakes and even more unremarkable than Kareem's final few years because he played for nearly every team in the NBA in a very short span. Still, incredible player in his peak and Philly got him for a steal from Houston after they fell short in 1982.

We got some good action tonight. Lakers @ Celtics oh boy! ESPN doubleheader - Rockets at Heat, Nets at Sonics. I enjoy watching the Rockets, Yao is a trip, but I'm of course going with the C's game. And probably watch Sonics, the novelty of the 2 rookies is still there for me.
