 Kobe for MVP? « The Wages of Wins Journal  Links4
Apparently there are many candidates for MVP, but two front-runners. Some people favor LeBron James. Others insist on Kobe Bryant. What do these two candidates have in common? Each are currently ranked first and second in the points scored per game rankings (MVP voting is about more than scoring, but scoring certainly plays an important role). The case for LeBron is actually fairly ... (link)

Wages of Wins Weighs in on the MVP Race
Published 4/2/2008 by David Friedman at 20 Second Timeout
... Berri and company recently weighed in on the MVP debate. Since they are much more interested in crunching certain numbers than considering the totality of what happens on the court, they are oblivious to the fact that the MVP race is likely going to come down not to Kobe Bryant and LeBron James--as they suggest--but rather Kobe Bryant and Chris Paul. James is probably going to be "disqualified" by virtue of his team not winning 50 games, much like Bryant was "disqualified" the past two years (I disagree with this kind of "disqualification" but that is another ...

Les Misérables - The Sequel

Seriously, I can not express how happy I am that this season is coming to an end. Losing over 110 games in two seasons drains the soul of even the most fanatical Grizz backer. When you add in the circus atmosphere that has accompanied this losing, it becomes even more difficult. I am truly looking forward to the off season, so I can recharge my (false?) hope for next season. Well said MemphisX

Interview with the Enemy: L.A. Ball Talk

It is amazing not only that the guys at 3 Shades of Blue thought up this series of stories but how many teams that they play at the end of the season are competing with them for lottery spots. Keep up the good work. It is good to read and interesting to watch develop as more and more teams start to think about the future and less on the present.

Pau opens his mouth and I tell him to shut it

About time someone from this blog told Pau to shove it. I was about to believe that they were going to let him get away without commentary. Way to tell Pau to stick Spartacus. It may not be that great of a season but the future is not written in stone. Saying the Grizzlies will never win is like saying the Spanish National team will always gag in the Euro Cup finals
