NBA Playoffs 2011 Discussion Thread

It's too bad that it's 2011 and he's the third best PG in the league...

I was just supporting my point that Paul would be the 2nd best player in the league if he returned to 2008/09 perfomance.

Durant is also 22 when Wade is 29. Like people above me have said, we're only a few years away from him being the face of the league. While he's not a great defender, he's very underrated.

So because he's younger he's the better player right now? Doesn't make much sense.

If we were talking about who the better player is gonna be in a few years or who was better at 22, that would be a nice argument. Unfortunately, we're talking about right now and Wade is easily the better player

No just stating a fact. I think he's a better player and I gurantee the majority of America agrees with me.

 

[lonesomefx]

But the reason he's getting the hype is because of how he put the team on his back during the season and led them to the best record in the league. 21 win improvement or something like that.

It was 21. However, I feel like what someone said the other day is true. If you're not Heat, Celtics, Lakers, Derrick Rose or Blake Griffin, ESPN doesn't care about you.

Be honest. Would you think this if Williams wasn't on the Nets?

1. Chris Paul
2. Deron Williams
3. Rajon Rondo
4. Steve Nash
5. Derrick Rose

That was Dwill's Top 5 pg's in nov I searched Deron Williams and posts by Dwill to find it lol.

Well that's a true statement. Bad teams in small markets don't sell. But Rose had a tremendous year. I think it was a bit unfair for people to hand him the MVP two months before the season was over, but that doesn't mean he didn't have a great season.

Yes.

CP3 has bad knees, and is somewhat of a liability on defense.

Deron will last much longer in the league than CP3.

You're saying that things can't change from November to April? DWill easily outperformed CP3 on both sides of the ball this year. He still averaged more points and assists than Paul with bad wrists.

That list was made in November. DWill easily outperformed CP3 on both sides of the ball this year. He still averaged more points and assists than Paul with bad wrists.

And CP3 had a bad knee but of course you fail to mention that haha. Paul was a much more efficient player. You still fail to acknowledge Williams' bad turnover amount.

Not really.

Still waiting for that first playoff win in ten years?

What a joke.

I want some statistics for that last part.

BC said it well on the last page, there isn't much KD can do that Wade can't, aside from shooting the ball which leads to the slight edge he has on him in scoring.

Wade gets overlooked now, since he's playing alongside the best player in the world.

Congrats on 24 wins this season, it was a big step up from the 12 last year .

do you hear yourself? You had to say 10 years to justify your team. How about

"Still waiting for that first playoff appearance in 4 years?"
