Mark. wrote:Haha yeah I got the gist. Yeah I think the C- for defense is fair. Blocks and steals can be misleading stats, well steals more so than blocks. The way I see it, half the steals you see in a game a gambles, I would much prefer a player to just focus on staying infront of his man.

Damn, your team really sucks for a 'contender'.

Iverson Injured In Loss To Pistons
February 23, 2013
SEATTLE (AP) – Allen Iverson was injured in his team’s 101-89 loss to the Detroit Pistons. Iverson, playing a reserve role for the first time in his career, struggled mightily during the match. The 17 year veteran’s forced exit from the game spared Seattle fans from his inefficient shooting display.
Iverson was 2 for 16 from the field before being carried off the court in the fourth quarter. The 1-time NBA MVP has stated that he is confident to play through his injury. It was announced that he had a strained MCL and that he would need 2 weeks to recover.
Iverson said that he would be back, “To everyone who was hating tonight. I’m going to be playing hurt and I’m going to play some great basketball.” Iverson was booed during the second half by Seattle fans as the Stealth dropped to second place in the Western Conference in a tight tussle with the Sacramento Kings for the number 1 seed.

The L-Train Blog wrote:Why LeBron James Is My Favorite NBA Player
Written by Liam Washburn
January 3, 2013 - Loyalty is an increasingly rare and special thing in sports. With stars feeling entitled to play in big markets and constantly contend, guys like Tim Duncan and DIrk Nowitzki are admirable exceptions. However, the former won four championships with his one team, and Dirk, though a former MVP, was never on James' level. When was the last time you saw the best player in the NBA stick around on his original team for a decade without a championship?
Mighty Moses is a great player, but I've never really believed the hype. Even in his heralded rookie season, his team did not improve with his frequent triple-doubles and ball-hogging. (I thought Andrew Watson deserved to win ROY that year!) While Geoff Petrie managed to build a great supporting cast around cocky Chara to finally get his Kings to the FInals last season, a good supporting cast has continued to elude LeBron. The three-point chucking, no-defense backcourt, overrated sidekick in Gay and shallow bench had yielded a very disappointing 16-14 start.
Even with his paltry supporting casts, James has still taken his team far. In 2007, he led a team with a starting backcourt of "Boobie" Gibson (remember him?) and Larry Hughes to the finals. The next year, his Cavs came within 4 points of defeating the eventual champs champion Celtics. Last season, he suffered his only injury of the season at the worst possible time: right before a winnable conference finals series against the eventual champion Hawks. Talk about bad luck! A two-time gold medal winner, one would expect King James to jump ship by now, but that's not his M.O.
A free agent in the 2010 off-season, most expected him to leave, and several teams cleared cap space to potentially sign him. Even with friend and fellow superstar Brandon Roy urging him to "take his talents to Rip City", LeBron stayed true to his Ohio roots, re-signing with Cleveland. Amazingly, many pundits criticized him, calling him "LeMartyr" among other things. Wow.
I've only played against LeBron once so far (he torched Jay and I for 37 points, but we got the W, behind my 8 points on 2-7 shooting), but having also played against Chara and Durant, I can safely say he's the league's best player. I was a lifelong Blazers fan before the Bucks took me, but I have always been rooting for the King to get hid ring. Its hard to see him getting one now with the L-Train going full steam ahead, but if (and its a big if) the Bucks ever get eliminated, I'll be rooting for the King.

A Day with the Mamba
Written by Julian Martin
February 28, 2013
The best day of my life just happened today. When ESPN asked me if I can do an interview with Kobe Bryant I did not hesitate to say yes. (It’s him how can I say no.)
6:08 am – I was so excited at the same time nervous. As I was brushing my teeth I keep on thinking what I would ask him. He is my favorite player; even though he got some bad publicity it never changes my desire to meet him.
8:20 am – I’m on my way to the Staples Center home of my favorite team the Los Angeles Lakers. In about two hours I will interview Kobe, one of the greatest player played the game.
I can still remember his unbelievable game against the Toronto Raptors. I just arrived home, I felt bad because I can’t do anything right in that game (4 points in 2 of 15 shooting with 5 T.O). To make matter worse my team was down 20 points entering the second half but I still watch the game, in about 20 minutes I was jumping up and down. Kobe had 60 points and the Lakers tied the game and the rest was history.
9:30 am – I arrived at the arena. The staff told me to wait for a while because the team is still practicing. I decided to watch them; Kobe is just standing there yelling at everyone. When he decided to play I noticed that he was hard on James Carter, he always give a nasty elbow to Carter. But nobody cares, I wonder why.
10:15 am – The staff told me to get ready, Kobe was about to meet me. My heart pounded fast, I was so nervous that I sweat a lot. Then he arrived, he shake my hand and sits down. “Sorry for making you wait, though I still prefer some more practice.” He said. At that time my interview was about to start.
Julian: First question, why so hard on James Carter? I just noticed that earlier.
Kobe: Hard? Are you kidding me? That’s just the way I do. To stay in this league you got to be tough.
Julian: Maybe you’re over doing it? His right eye is swelling from the elbow you gave him.
Kobe: And did you see the way he reacted? He just dunked on me three times after that.
Julian: Alright next question, actually this comes from a friend of mine. You said that Reshawn Tyson is a good player, why did you say that?
Kobe: Well this is one stupid question; we all know that Ty can play. He just got to the allstars team. That’s proof how good he is. But…
Julian: But what?
Kobe: I can see him being a much better player than that; I think his not putting his 100% effort to his game.
Julian: Can I asked why do think that?
Kobe: Can you just ask him?
Julian: Well I can’t because I just here to interview you.
Kobe: Then that’s your problem then.
Julian: Never mind that, next question. Do you think that you can still win the championship? It’s been two years since you won it.
Kobe: You know me kid, I live for that. I can’t go to sleep at night thinking when I can get a hold of that trophy. It’s the only thing I played for.
Julian: Wow you got a serious answer for the first time.
Kobe: And wow look we got no time left.
Julian: Damn time went by fast, last question. What advice can you give for me since I’m about to enter the league.
Kobe: I know your game kid and you better work on your defense. I’m gonna score my career high from you. Ciao!
Then he just leave, he didn’t even shake my hand. I can’t even get an autograph and I know this is my last chance.As I was about to leave the arena, I got surprised to what I saw. Kobe was still shooting some hoops, his work ethic is incredible. For a guy this great and he still have desires to get even better. You can't asked why his one of the best.
I better work on my defense fast; I don’t want this guy scoring 100 on me.
