"4. Kevin Love, Minnesota Timberwolves. Love joins Al Harrington to form a big front court for the Timberwolves. Simply adding his size and talent in the paint will undoubtedly improve the team's rebounding and defense. Don't blame fans in Minnesota, though, for hoping he produces on the offensive end too. This team needs all the scoring they can get, and getting the ball inside for
easier points seems like it would be the first step."

This guy thinks Love will help us defensively? OJ Mayo is not in his top ten nor is he an honorable mention.

lol

Seriously, though, it would be unethical for Kevin McHale to write for an independent basketball publication.

"5. O.J. Mayo, Memphis Grizzlies. While Gasol (see above) will help, the Grizzlies will need a big difference-maker to turn their team around. They hope Mayo is just the player to do that. He should see plenty of minutes early on in the season, which will give the Grizzlies a backcourt player to turn to. He should fit nicely on a team with Rudy Gay, and the two should combine to provide the Grizzlies with a better offense than last season (when they scored 95.6 points a game). "

lol if Love joins AL HARRINGTON, i have reason to believe that Shrink doesnt write for hopsworld, but Shrunk does.......

One thing thats for sure is that.....by putting love there and exclude Mayo from the article, this writer must be a twolves fan.....someone from this board is highly highly possible

Having written for Hoopsworld, myself, a few years back, something like that doesn't surprise me.

LOL! So can I ethically use Hoopsworld as some sort of vindication.

"See?!? I'm not the only one!"

"Oh? Who else is as brain-damaged as you?"

"um.. hoopsworld"

This morning #5 was Westbrook and #6 was Marc Gasol. It was edited at 1:13, but I assure you OJ Mayo was not on the origional document.
