Yeah, I think that would help getting these done much faster.

And hopefully more of the newbies will take notice and vote as well.

Btw, who's your vote and nominee?

Vote: Blake Griffin

Nominate: Not sure yet

Why Deron over Curry? I think Deron's picked it up and actually does deserve to get voted in soon, but Curry's been awesome this year, and has only missed 4 games so far.

And D-Will responds with a career night lol.

Keep questioning him, we need to win.

Dwill, injured, in a down year, with everyone trashing him:

18/7.5/3 18.5 PER, 56 TS%

Curry in a career year:

22/6.5/4 20 PER 58 TS%

says alot about dwill. if he can bounce back to form, with the talent around him, look out. even with him basically playing healthy 1st halves before going downhill after the ankles tighten up at halftime the past several weeks, he has seen a huge boost.

I don't know if we can really attribute the 3rd quarter to his ankles not being good.

I may have to re-watch the game, but it seemed to me that "he was like 'Ok, I dominated in the first half, I'm just going to focus on getting the rest of the guys involved".

There were plenty of times where he just gave up the ball to start off a possession or would bring up the ball and immediately dump off the ball. To me, it just looked like he was trying to get other players going but because JJ and Lopez really couldn't get going, the offense became stagnant.

At the end of the game, we saw him basically say "Ok, screw it, I'm going to get us some points" and he'd either weave through the defense for a layup or launch a 3.

Obviously, this is just my opinion. You could very well be right. But like you're saying, the fact that we're getting this kind of production out of D-Will on bad ankles is good. It gives me some hope that we'll see him play a high level for the next few years (if healthy).

i wasnt referring to last night, i was referring to the season, and the past month in particular in general. He has been significantly better in the first half of games. and doesnt seem to have the same burst coming out of halftime. obviously just speculation, but id assume it isnt just an anomoly or coincidence

Want to move on? Seems like a big lead for Deron (5-2 over Griffin, if I'm not mistaken).

Actually surprised that the people that voted for him feel that he's better than Lopez at this point.

Yeah personally even though he's moved way up for me I still have Deron somewhere between maybe 15 and 19, would have to really make a list to see, but Griffin, Lopez, Dwight and Curry are all still ahead of him for me with the likely case of a couple others as well.
