Good points. Others chime in as to distract CW and I from killing eachother in the Spurs thread.

Not meant to be lifetime achievement, which probably influenced my rankings a bit. I feel I owe Dirk the respect. And I did add that comment. I think the Mavs will click here in short order once they cut Vince (kills that team) but after this first week and change, I totally get why Cuban opted to free up money for next year. The Mavericks franchise will forever see letting Tyson Chandler and Barea walk as a great thing in the long run. They had a one year window that is now closed and I think Cuban was a genius for recognizing their title as a very strange, unexpected stroke of luck for his team. A visionary in the best sense.

Great thoughts on Westbrook, too.

If Blake were the same player but didnt have as many fast break power dunks, he would probably be lower on many rankings (although his ability to run the floor is kind of a big deal). But he is a stud and can work in the post. I can see how Love has a better all around game, though.

Scola over Bosh? Bold. As much as I love to rip Bosh to shreds... (waits patiently for a FatSax rant)

That's right. Grotesque Brunette Fabio (Scola) over Ostrich RuPaul (Bosh).

You heard it hear first. P.S. How is Chris Bosh's neck so freaking long? I swear he stole half of Shawn Marion's neck.

MODS I need some serious help.

I have created the name Murphs56 for my account on 3 separate occasions and made posts. I have left this page idle, came back a few hours later and it says that the account does not exist. Additionally, it changes my user name. The latest user name is kwasiy...Hell, a few hours might go by and this post will no longer say Murphs56 next to it, but something else. I registered the way I'm supposed to, so this is really odd to me. In order to post again, I am forced to reregister my account. Anybody know whats going on? Help!

You can't create your account in the forums. You have to do it in the very upper right of your screen on the Bloguin toolbar. Then it won't erase. After you create your account you log in on TWB in the very upper right. Then you'll be good to go.

Sorry for the hassle with that.

HA! I will refrain from a Bosh rant after seeing those GIF's. Bosh is a fine basketball player and a terrible, idiot of a human being. I would rather have Chris Benoit babysit my kids than Chris Bosh.

This ranking challenge is the Daddy's style. I'll come back to it. Off the bat, you might as well take Bosh out and put Harden in.

If this is still a K-Lav post, I'll add this in here.

Sir Charles on PTI, asked about Rubio:

"If I am going to talk about Minnesota, I am going to start with Kevin Love. He's the best power forward in the game."

Kornholer then asked if Love should go play someone else:

Chuck: "Everyone can't play in L.A., NY, Chi, etc. I hope he stays in Minnesota."

Kahn -- just get the inevitable over and give him the max before they hit the road. Show some balls and shut up the NYer's right now asking if Love should play somewhere else.

Hell, even I will admit he's up towards the top of the league. I can't say I would call him the #1 PF though. That might be a bit much.

Durant certainly if you call him a 4 (he's not). That's like... it. I don't think there's a PF or Center in the league I'd trade Love for straight up.

Aldrige, Griffin, Howard, etc. And that's just the first few that quickly come to mind.

Would you turn down the Clips if they called offering Blake?

That would be hard to do.

This makes me think of Rubio's pick-and-roll partner. You'd love to see Ricky throwing lobs, but Love's three-point range/game is huge for the Wolves and is working well with Ricky.

Love is playing outside so much, it is good to see how many putbacks he is getting and his rebounds are not down. I know it is early, but he is pulling down 50% more rebounds than Blake right now.

My disdain for Howard clouds my judgment. As for Aldridge and Griffin, let's wait until the all star break or so to visit this topic.
