Lessons in transcending “valuable”: Part III Dwyane Wade
You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video
Dwyane Wade won’t win the MVP this season, but he will complete one of the most amazing individual seasons in the game’s history. I think back to Kobe’s ridiculous 2005-2006 scoring binge, an epic season for the ages where in my mind he was [...]

The latest round of the Blogger MVP/Roy Rankings are being hosted by our good friend mookie over at A Stern Warning. Go check them out! As usual, here are my full rankings.
MVP Rankings
10 points – Dirk Nowitzki: I wonder how often Dirk asks himself “what’s the point?”. The Mavs are doomed, they’ll get a low [...]

10 - Shaquille O’Neal: His defensive numbers are as good as his championship season in Miami, he’s shooting a career-high from the FT stripe, and his vertical leap is back over 12 inches. The last time Shaq [...]
Kobe Bryant: A Legacy on the Line
A few weeks ago I wrote an article for Hoopcity Magazine about Kobe Bryant and his legacy. Edition #2 of Hoopcity has been pushed back a couple of weeks to accommodate the NBA Finals, so the Kobe article has been published online while the Lakers and Celtics are stilling battling it [...]
Day 17 & 18: The Good (Kobe), the Bad (Orlando) and the Ugly (BOS vs CLE)
PLAYOFF DIARY: DAY 17
I think its about time I started to admit I was wrong about the Hornets. In the first round I tipped them to lose to Dallas in 6 games. Despite convincingly doing away with the Mavs, I then tipped them to lose to the Spurs in 6. I don’t think I was [...]
The TrashTalk MVP Ballot
I promised when I was slamming the MVP award that I’d be back at the end of the season with my ballot. I’ve been thinking long and hard about the MVP for a couple of months now, and in reality, the decision for MVP is no easier now than it was back in early March. [...]
The Home Stretch
It’s been a few days since my lazy ass decided to inject some wisdom into the blogosphere, so I’ve got a little catching up to do. This post may be long but I guarantee you will at least chuckle, smirk, or curse at your computer screen.
Saturday April 5th
This was a scary day for me, and indeed [...]
CP3 is the MVPOATWTBRITWC! and Hoopcity Touches Down
Ric, you’ve done it again. One of the best articles I’ve read about the MVP in recent years was this piece from Ric Bucher, where he looked at all the MVP candidates, didn’t award the MVP to anyone, invented six spin-off awards, talked about short skirts and sluts, and suggested his 3-year-old daughter might eventually [...]



UPDATE 26/6: Patty goes #55 in the draft, a little later than everyone expected. But a great day for Australian basketball nonetheless. We sat down with the draft dude for a
