obv no one should be voting for bron but i want to note that he has been playing great d on evan turner this playoffs, he seems to be taking special joy in shutting turner down

Draymond was ten years old when the 2000 election happened! Weird

juice college (agent hibachi), Friday, 24 April 2015 18:18 (nine years ago) link

I guess it's probably a prominent chapter in history books nowadays now that I think about it so maybe it's not that weird

juice college (agent hibachi), Friday, 24 April 2015 18:19 (nine years ago) link

lag∞n, Friday, 24 April 2015 18:31 (nine years ago) link

slothroprhymes, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:08 (nine years ago) link

what the heck how did the buss family get to place votes

slothroprhymes, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:11 (nine years ago) link

Clarkson was pretty awesome after they handed him the keys. Rookie of the week a couple times I think.

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:14 (nine years ago) link

yeah clarkson saved my fantasy season

#wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:19 (nine years ago) link

nah i'm just clowning he was legit p good

slothroprhymes, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:23 (nine years ago) link

if it'd been two first place votes, that would've been a lot more sus.

slothroprhymes, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:23 (nine years ago) link

It actually wasn't that bad of a year for the rookie class in the end, a lot of guys hit their stride

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:28 (nine years ago) link

Obviously those injuries were a big deal, such a shame with Jabari

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:29 (nine years ago) link

Elfrid Payton has first-place hair.

A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:44 (nine years ago) link

Nurkic getting a 2nd place vote actually is kind of ok. He really did play elite defense, which is all Nerlens did really. Not as big of a fan of the Elf first place votes.

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:49 (nine years ago) link

mirotic isn't a real rookie

J0rdan S., Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:50 (nine years ago) link

he's 23

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:54 (nine years ago) link

24 and 2 months but point stands, not really much different from drafting a senior

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:55 (nine years ago) link

did not realize he was that young, he looks old, like hes been alive since the bible

lag∞n, Thursday, 30 April 2015 20:59 (nine years ago) link

orlando drafting non shooting guards with high picks in back to back drafts is really something

lag∞n, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:02 (nine years ago) link

he's a pretty baffling talent to me. He seemingly based everything off his jumper and then he comes to the NBA and is effective despite struggling with the jumper all year. He's more athletic than he seems too. xp

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:03 (nine years ago) link

I actually think Dipo-Payton could work if Dipo could become a 38% or better 3 point shooter and I personally think he can

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:04 (nine years ago) link

The Magic's horribleness with all that talent is pretty impressive really

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:06 (nine years ago) link

idk i feel like dipo cant prob get to being a decent shooter/scorer but you prob dont want to pair him w a non shooter like payton, u just dont want non shooters on the perimeter at all really

lag∞n, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:06 (nine years ago) link

I do think they ended up with two good players in drafts where that wasn't so easy

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:07 (nine years ago) link

but yeah it's complicated.

Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:07 (nine years ago) link

shooting seems important, seems like many of the good teams shoot well

Clay, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:07 (nine years ago) link

i am not sold on either of them tbh, tho oladipo prob has a pretty high floor

lag∞n, Thursday, 30 April 2015 21:08 (nine years ago) link

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 55s56 seconds ago
Golden State GM Bob Myers has been voted the NBA"s Executive of the Year.

lag∞n, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:02 (nine years ago) link

warriors GM wins executive of the year, presumably for NOT making the love deal. well-deserved tbh

k3vin k., Friday, 1 May 2015 16:11 (nine years ago) link

yeah what is that award really for, like i assume not for only moves made in the past year

lag∞n, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:12 (nine years ago) link

just like u made a good team here u go buddy

lag∞n, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:12 (nine years ago) link

the decision not to trade for love was as difficult a decision as any other decision that ended in a deal being made. and now it's a slam dunk, i think he deserves it. alternative probably danny ferry so

k3vin k., Friday, 1 May 2015 16:25 (nine years ago) link

yeah im not saying that wasnt good just that its prob not what hes getting the award for

lag∞n, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link

for firing mark jax

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Friday, 1 May 2015 20:12 (nine years ago) link

They added Livingston and Barbosa which were good moves but that's pretty much all they did this year.

polyphonic, Friday, 1 May 2015 20:16 (nine years ago) link

lol tru xp

lag∞n, Friday, 1 May 2015 21:53 (nine years ago) link

Yeah firing Jax and not trading for love were two pretty tough choices

#wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Friday, 1 May 2015 22:20 (nine years ago) link

curry got that mvp

Clay, Monday, 4 May 2015 00:14 (nine years ago) link

the hoops gods have smiled upon us this day

slothroprhymes, Monday, 4 May 2015 00:30 (nine years ago) link

!!!!

#wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Monday, 4 May 2015 01:24 (nine years ago) link

More glad that Harden didn't win tbh, I don't want to hate that dude as much as I do

tsrobodo, Monday, 4 May 2015 01:26 (nine years ago) link

he's #2 surely, interested in seeing the totals as curry mvp seemed a sure thing by the end of the season
