MVP/RoY Rankings, Part VII
Published 2/26/2008 by David Friedman at 20 Second Timeout
The seventh edition of the blogger MVP/RoY rankings has just been posted at Celtics Blog Here are links to the previous six editions: MVP/RoY rankings, Part I MVP/RoY rankings, Part II MVP/RoY rankings, Part III MVP/RoY rankings, Part IV MVP/RoY rankings, Part V. MVP/RoY rankings, Part VI. This time around, the bloggers voted LeBron as the MVP, with Paul second, KG third and Kobe fourth. I think that for most of the year KG has been the media favorite but I'm not sure if that is the case now considering that Boston went 7-2 without KG and that Kobe and LeBron have been ...

February Blogger NBA MVP Rankings

Lee and I were invited to participate in an NBA MVP and ROY ranking by other notable NBA bloggers. Here's the most recent rankings and results: Blogger MVP/ROY Rankings: Round 7 and yes, I feel a little dumb not voting for Carl Landry at the time. But I do believe my "Mitch Kupchak" entry on the MVP ballot was inspired.

Not for nothin', but... D-LEAGUE! Now there's a name you don't read everyday when you're checking out NBA stuff: Osama Bin Laden. A former player says the Knicks have an identity problem. We tend to think they have a "playing basketball in a way that is not an abomination" problem. Douchenozzle of the day: Phil Jackson. Expect a swarm of "Isn't Phil Jackson awesome?!" from parts of the internet today. Vomit. Isn't it a bit late to still be tinkering, trade or no? Headline = Understatement of the Year nominee.

Herald C’s stroll through LA, ease way back home FL's Take: The Celtics had an easy time with the Clippers but they were without their starting center and PG. It was nice to see another blowout though. Pruitt has talent and can shoot the ball. I wish we had given him more playing time early. But ...

Orlando Magic News for February 26th: Rashard Lewis Plays Well With Others
Published 2/26/2008 by Ben Q Rock <info@thirdquartercollapse.com> at Third Quarter Collapse
Who needs Jerry West when you have Keyon Dooling? The Magic's backup point guard candidly imitates The Logo in the Magic's 112-93 win over the Kings on Sunday. Photo by Fernando Medina, NBAE/Getty Images How about Keyon Dooling? That pose above uncannily resembles the NBA's logo. John Denton and Brian Schmitz each have stories about Rashard Lewis' unselfishness; he's perfectly happy deferring to Dwight Howard and Hedo Turkoglu, and he's not concerned with his 18.2 scoring average, which is his lowest in four seasons. You gotta like his attitude. However, he can sometimes defer ...

Don't miss the latest MVP/ROY rankings at Celtics Blog. I had Kobe Bryant up to #2 and close behind LeBron in the MVP race, but Kobe is slotted fourth in the current overall rankings. Am I missing something? Hmmm.

Wednesday Bucks Notes
Published 2/27/2008 by Alex <info@brewhoop.com> at Brew Hoop
The Bucks beat the Cavaliers 105-102 last night, thanks to Michael Redd's buzzer-beating three pointer, which came five seconds after LeBron James tied the game. The Bucks have beaten the Pistons, Nuggets, and Cavaliers in the last week, rivaling their mid-November run when they topped the Cavaliers, Lakers, and Mavericks in less than a week. Michael Redd is a happy Buck according to Tom Enlund of JS Online. And this news came before his game-winner. In any event, it sounds as though he's not interested in being the number one guy on a losing team for the rest of his career. Redd was asked whether he ever thought that ...

Bloggers Pick MVP and ROY - Round 10
Published 4/7/2008 at Queen City Hoops
It does not happen often...but this post will have nothing to do with the Bobcats (unfortunately, Jared Dudley did not manage to get a single vote for Rookie of the year). Today, Queen City Hoops is hosting the rotating "Blogger MVP/ROY Ranking - Round 10". For those unfamiliar, here are the ground rules: Bloggers submit their top 10 MVP candidates, and top 5 ROY candidates. Points are then awarded on a sliding scale - 1st place vote = 10 points, 2nd place = 9 points,..., 10th place = 1 point for MVP balloting, and for the rooks, 1st place = 5 points and so on. 20 blogs took part in this round (including this one) - here are those intrepid reporters of the ...

Rankings: The 7th Man of the year (oh, and MVP, too)
Published 24 days ago by Crucifictorious at We Rite Goode
Rankings: The 7th Man of the year (oh, and MVP, too) Tuesday, April 22, 2008 Let's face it: Part I of the final basket-blogger awards played to script, with Durant (ROY), Scott (COY), and Hedo (MIP). However, today's rankings of 7th Man and MVP promise to be more surprising and--dare we say--interesting. Still, prepare yourself for lots of charts and numbers; bloggers provided six months of data, after all. How could we not analyze it? 7th Man of the Year We elected to skip 6th Man--not just because Manu Ginobili was near-unanimous, but since typical candidates are de facto starters--and instead wanted to recognize a true impact reserve. A player who ...
