OT:Predictions for awards 

Post#1 » by Dexmor » Thu Apr 23, 2009 2:38 am

Who do you guys think should be all nba team

1st team

Howard
Gasol
Lebron
Kobe
Wade

2nd team

Duncan
Dirk
Granger
Roy
Paul

3rd team

Ming

Bosh

Durant-One of the most underrated players in the league. Averaged 25 points this year and is unstoppable and starting rebounding way better towards the 2nd half of season. Will be a superstar with the Wade's and Paul's and Rose's and Roy's and Melo's, you get the point

Joe Johnson

Deron Williams

And on a side not next year Rose will make 1st or 2nd team.

Roy and Dpoy were done

Lebron and Brown MVP and COY
Lakers championship

6th man Terry

All nba defensive team

Howard
Lebron
Battier
Artest
Rondo

2nd all defensive team

Camby
Duncan
Kobe/Ariza
Wade
Paul

Mip Danny Granger or Lebron James. Lebron might sound craay to you but he has added shotblcoking and has become the best defender not nick named Superman which is a huge difference from last year. If lets say an average or even above average player like Diaw went next year came out and become the league's best defender under 7 feet small and made his team a defesive team because of leadership something he knew nothing about the year before he would be a candidate.

All Rookie first team

Lopez
Kevin Love
Westbrook
Mayo
Rose

2nd team

Gasol
Beasley
Gorden
DJ
Rudy

Off the top of your head that is a very good list but I think you need to relook at Gasol. He is a top 5 big man.

i dont think gasol had as good of a year as dirk.

put dirk on the lakers and gasol on the mavs and see what happens.

and i have a serious man crush on durant, who i think is lightyears better than gasol. duncan will be in the top big man discussion based on his defense alone.

You don't have a man crush your just completely dead on with Durant. Durant will be a top 10 player in the league. He will be up there with Paul and Wade and the superstar top 10 players.

I don't know maybe I'm not as high on Durant, he's a terrific scorer but it doesn't help his team win games at this point atleast. That's why he's not on my lists yet.
First Team:
Dwayne Wade
Kobe Bryant
Lebron James
Kevin Garnett
Tim Duncan
Dwight Howard

Second Team:
Tony Parker
Brandon Roy
Dirk Nowitzi
Pau Gasol
Yao Ming

Third Team:
Chris Paul
Ray Allen
Carmelo Anthony
Kevin Garnett
? The Shaqtus?

You say Durant is not as high because he doesn't make his teammates better.

You need to look at his age. he is younger then almost all the rookies. He is like 19 or 20. The guy is gonna cruise into top 10 player in the league. He will be the 2nd best sf in the league for his whole career behind only Lebron. Hall of fame, will lead his team to playoffs every year once he gets a better crew and will have 10 allstar apperacnes with 10 all nba teams.
