Nothing much, just winning another league MVP and Finals MVP.

Kobe's actually not having a bad season, I'd go as far as to call it a great season. He's just had to deal with catastrophe after catastrophe and Dwight being a total nothing as an impact player.

By the way, Dwight Howard is the most overrated player in the history of professional basketball...

Overrated, hell yes. I wouldn't say he's the MOST overrated player in history.

I think he's overrated because offensively, he's nothing but dunks and putbacks (after how many years in the league now?). On top of being an offensive liability, his inability to knock free throws when they count simply rob his team of possessions.

His defense is good enough, I'll give him that.

They appear to be scrubs because they're playing in a system designed for 25-30yr olds. Not when your main facilitators are older.

Also, it doesn't help that for whatever reason, the Lakers are playing matador defense.

How bout Kyrie last nite! http://www.nba.com/games/20130126/CL...s=iref:nbahpgt[0021200642]

Did I hear right? ESPN just said Rajon Rondo tore his ACL? If that's the case, then the Boston Celtic's season is done, probably next year too.

Edit: Rajon Rondo did indeed tear his ACL.

Say Chi Sin Lo · 01-27-2013, 11:31 AM

Garnett is cleaning boards like no other late in the game.

Say Chi Sin Lo · 01-27-2013, 11:54 AM

A LOT of tired legs in this Celtics/Heat double OT game.

Say Chi Sin Lo · 01-27-2013, 12:46 PM

Westbrook taking shots he shouldn't again. 1/9 for the half.

soyizgood · 01-27-2013, 12:54 PM

Celtics are toast. Rondo out for the rest of the year with an ACL. One of my co-workers is a die-hard C's fan, so I'll have to console him.

stringertom · 01-27-2013, 02:15 PM

Kobe with a sick crossover to set up the dagger shot vs Thunder. D'Antoni has a new effective tactic...get Dwight in foul trouble and have him ride the pine until victory is assured!

anhuynh16 · 01-27-2013, 02:56 PM

Its so sad to see such a talented guy like rondo go out. I wish him a speedy recovery. Looks like I won't be seeing him at the All Star Game

Ronaldo · 01-27-2013, 03:40 PM

How bout JJ Redick, 29 pts, 8-10 3 pointers in the 3rd qtr!

Magic lose for 16th time in 18 games (10 vs teams with losing records) despite Redick's heroics. Curious move by Vaughn, benching JJ early after his hot start...I thought you stay with the hot hand. Pistons went on a 12-2 run after Redick hit the pines. Oh well!

TennisLovaLova · 01-28-2013, 01:20 AM

there's a rumor about MJ coming back for 1 game at age 50
I dont believe this, it's impossible

Great player. Most likely will be traded for a young player or a 2014 pick. I just do not think the Magic can afford his next contract. they can afford it, but it does not fit into their plan of trying to retain and develop as many young talents as possible.

I think JJ would be perfect on the Bulls or Mavericks coming off the bench as a 6th man.

Bulls wanted to sign him a few years ago, but Orlando matched the offer sheet.
