!7 players. Only 12 will make th eactual team for the FIBA Americas Tourney. Team Blue vs Team White.

There's 6 seconds to go. Kobe just put the Blue Team up by 1.

DURANT SCORED 22. CANT REALLY JUDGE OFF JUST A FEW SUMMER LEAGUE GAMES, BUT I THINK ODEN WAS HELLA OVERHYPED

DURANT>ODEN

DIFFERENT POSITIONS BUT DURANT IS DEFINATELY GONNA HAVE A BETTER CAREER THEN ODEN. DUDE WAS SHOWIN SKILL, JUST LIKE HE WAS IN THE SUMMER LEAGUE WHILE ODEN DIDNT IMPRESS ME AT ALL

you have barley seen oden play. and when he was he needed tonsil surgery and had a sinus infection.... second this is summer league you guys saw, and i can guarantee this, that its harder for a big man to adjust to the NBA then it is a free ranging small forward. so don't lose faith, lol I know everyone here knows I'm gonna back Oden in this forum.

and I'm gonna tell you this

Qyntel Woods was a two time Summer league MVP.... how'd that work out, They let you have ten fouls in less time over all( four, ten min quarters I think), so they go out there knowing they can hack a little more. don't let the summer league tell you guys shit, wait for pre-season and start of regular season to make an opinon



P.S. Durant is and will be Very very very good in this league for many years, he's fun to watch too!

Kobe schooled LeBron... where's CZAR at? Even though LeBron got in a good block on Kobe... in the end who came through?

Well if LeBron's game makes his teammates better then why didn't play good against the Spurs? That was the most boring NBA Finals I've ever seen.

what their starting lineup needs to be is

c-dwight howard
pf-amare stoudemire
sf-lebron james
sg-kobe bryant
pg-dwyane wade

nobody is fuckin with this lineup here. let lebron play point, drive and draw the double teams.

i think this starting 5 will give usa the best chance to win. this team, i think, has a nice balance of offensive and defense.

lol, i know it won't. but if team usa wants a gold medal, then they should run with this lineup.

as of now, dwyane wade is recovering from his shoulder injury, according to espn. so i don't know if he'll play or not.

and even if dwyane wade wasn't playing, i'm sure jason kidd, kirk hinrich, deron williams, chris paul, or chauncey billups could fill in just fine at point guard.

irrelevant question. what I will say though, is that Bron was IN the finals and Kobe was only IN the first round

LeBron came through the East, he would not have "took his team" to the finals had he been playing in the west - simple as that.

And, how the fuck my thread get hijacked? And now I'm joining in.

Sorry for being an accomplice to the jacking...

...but Lebron may not have a ''star'' on the team, but that team's next best 4 players > the rest of the Lakers...

Kobe is a better shooter than Lebron. He's a better defender. He's a better free throw shooter. He's a better playmaker. He's better in the clutch (Lebron is ASS in the clutch).

Lebron is a better rebounder...but he's bigger and stronger ( I suppose... ) I think passing wise (when Kobe does pass it...), Lebron is slightly better.

Other than that...?

IMO...KOBE > LEBRON. And that's the bottom line, 'cuz REDRUM said so!

LOL...we could argue this for days...I GOT KOBE, you take Oprah, for all I care.

so I guess the game that was on FSN last night was just a re-peat....Jason Kidd was diming people up out there...and Durant was hella impressive too
