Playoff Thoughts

June 1, 2010 by Harlan Schreiber 2 Comments

Lakers-Celtics, Again: Lakers-Celtics is always a fun Finals match up.  Of course, the fun was the surprise in getting this match up, more than the games that led us to this moment.  In fact, the actual games have been, for the most part, quite mundane.  Regardless of the workman like way that the Lakers and Celts have dispatched their opponents, this is a potentially very fun NBA Finals.  Predicting this NBA Finals is tough because both the Lakers and Celts struggled coming into the … [Read more...] about Playoff Thoughts

NBA Draft 2010: Combo Guards

May 29, 2010 by Ed Weiland 2 Comments

This is a group of guards who are misfits. They fit somewhere between a PG and SG, but don’t have the type of numbers that either position would traditionally need. All either led their teams in assists or were a close second, but don’t look like NBA PGs, because they played more on the wing in college or they don’t have robust enough scoring and assist numbers to look like they can make it. All have something to like about them and that’s why I’m taking a look at them. Here are the … [Read more...] about NBA Draft 2010: Combo Guards

NBA Draft 2010: Remaining Point Guards

May 22, 2010 by Ed Weiland 3 Comments

Here is a look at the remaining PGs out there. Some players who might be thought of as PGs will be covered with the combo guards in upcoming articles. I haven’t done John Wall yet. I was planning on waiting until the end to look at the top prospects. Also with the Wizards winning the lottery, I’ll need time to ponder how the arrival of John Wall will affect the Crittenton era in DC.  Mikhail Torrance, Alabama and Armon Johnson, Nevada:  I had meant for this last PG analysis to be for … [Read more...] about NBA Draft 2010: Remaining Point Guards

Playoff Thoughts

May 20, 2010 by Harlan Schreiber 2 Comments

The reactions to Cleveland's loss to Boston in Round 2 have been varied but most have been along the lines that the loss was a calamity and will set back the Cavs quite a bit.  Is this true?  Sorta.  Let's go through the loss and try to separate fact from fiction: Did the Cavs/LeBron Choke? I don't know if choke is the right word.  Clearly, the Cavs seemed to be the better team by all accounts going into the series.  There really is no one who could've predicted that the Celts … [Read more...] about Playoff Thoughts

NBA Draft Preview 2010: Senior Point Guards

May 18, 2010 by Ed Weiland 1 Comment

When an NCAA player lasts until his senior season without turning pro it typically is not a good sign for the player. It means the player either took this long to get his name on the map as a prospect or he simply hasn’t been good enough his first 3 seasons to get a guarantee in the first round. On the other hand, it shows he’s smart and mature enough to make a realistic assessment of his abilities and go back to college, which in most cases is probably the best option for such a player. So with … [Read more...] about NBA Draft Preview 2010: Senior Point Guards

NBA Draft Preview 2010: Bradley and Bledsoe

May 16, 2010 by Ed Weiland 1 Comment

These two should be analyzed together, because they’re in similar situations. Both were highly-touted freshmen coming into this season. Bradley more so than Bledsoe, but both were well thought of. Both landed on talented rosters where they mixed a few moments of brilliance with spending their freshmen seasons taking a backseat to teammates ahead of them in the pecking order. Both are PG size, but have yet to prove they can play the position. Both came out after their freshman years anyways, … [Read more...] about NBA Draft Preview 2010: Bradley and Bledsoe
