Nonononono

1. Rose
2. Paul
3. Rondo
4. Deron

You think there's a reason Derons stats declined since joining NJ? Rondo proved tonight hes better

I don't think you can prove anything in one game.

Ummm... Derrick Rose?

I wasn't the one who negged you, but ESPN made Derrick Rose. They gave him so much hype and he ran with it. Other players are letting him twerk them because they think he's unstoppable after all they've heard on ESPN. Does he deserve MVP? Yes. Is he really still considered a Point Guard in my eyes? As much as Allen Iverson is... not at all. DRose is more of a Shooting Guard imo, he's just playing the Point Guard role.

There are live interviews on NBA.com after every game, in case anybody doesn't know yet

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Russell 5 and we finally agree on something

Lol yeah, I guess I can go with that. Like I said I'm not a huge Westbrook fan, but I can't deny the guy has an impact on the game.

Derrick Rose isn't a true PG but he still is the best player in the league who plays point guard.

Well you need to tell your boy stop giving so much head to my Knicks -____- Us Knicks fans couldn't care less about the Nets, but some Nets fans are too focused on our team and not how much "winning" their team is doing.

Fair enough.

I've said it multiple times that I would like to see the Knicks succeed for the simple fact that I remember how it was when Starks and Ewing were playing. Also, the Houston and Sprewell era. I just want there to be good basketball in the metropolitan area

if he was a little taller, we;d be comparing him to DWade

How much does Rose make his teammates better? He makes his team better, sure. But how much does he elevate his teammates?

He doesn't do enough all around to be #1. Like I said, that's Chris.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Damn it, stupid Knicks game. Great job by Carmelo Anthony, so close.... crap!

Is this a serious post?

homer time!

everyone talks about how Kobe is old and washed up (overstating purposely, just go with it)
im not disagreeing

but this season he and Rose had pretty much identical years, but DRose > God and Kobe is just Kobe

Kobe's "down year" is Rose's MVP year

juts an observation

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Hope Matthews is ok, love that guy.

Jameer Nelson is probably my least favorite player in the league right now

Rose couldn't hold Kobe's jock strap.

I personally like the Nets, not a fan, but I like them. I hope that the move to Brooklyn is a success, I just can't stand... that other Nets fan. He's thick-skulled, but you seem to get where I'm coming from.

We could be talking about the D-League and mexi would find a way to make it about the lakers....
