If it's a joke it's not funny, if it's not a joke it's very funny.

Most of the times, I find DOM's style quite demagogic. Sometimes he even does not hesitate to rely on "ad-hominem". However, this time, I am writing this post just to applaud him. His writing skill is probably the best in here. Plus this time, I am totally agree with the content of his post, umm, sorry, "article".

IMO, Arroyo is a much better back up for PG position comparing Dooling. Let me try to explain with my poor English: Yes, Keyon is a better scorer & defender than Arroyo. On the other hand, what we need from our PGs is not "scoring". We already have enough scoring options, D12, Rashard, Hedo and even our SGs. Keyon is forcing too many shots. If Dwight misses a shot, it's not the same when a PG misses a shot. When a PG misses a shot, it's usually paid by a fast-break point. Cause the first defence before the half-court is very important to prevent fastbreaks.

my vote is in! Surely Magic Dancers are hotter!

When I feel depression is coming I force myself to think in this way: "Some guys making millions of dollars by playing basketball lose against some other guys making millions of dollars by playing basketball and well I get depressed, uh? I don't think so!" lol

My neighbours will kill me. It's 3:30am here in Turkey and I'm jumping all around and screaming! LOL Good night everybody! Go Magic!

Soo democratic and soo nice. But don't you think it's a little bit too much "formalism"? I don't know why but all of a sudden a very old song came to my mind: You're in the army now

MAGIC 111 PACERS 97 Big three: 70 points (Shard 27, D-12 24, Hedo 19) GO MAGIC!

I like the guy cause I don't smell a huge ego like a lot of PGs have in the league. It's nice to see Jameer & Carlos became a very good TEAM. Keep it up boys! GO MAGIC!

Leave it as it is! Especially for such lazy people like me those who never click on links. BTW, thanks for the good job JD.

Agreed!

Maybe Magic Wand should clear this up. Of course I was talking about the second part and that's why I made that part bold. As for Dwight, he is one of the best 5 players in the entire league and naturally the best player in our team. However, saying Hedo improved his game mainly because of Dwight is another way of snubbing Hedo's great effort.

Who's your pick? I think it is Kaman, Outlaw, or possibly Kevin Martin. I would say most improved on the team would have to be Dwight. Add Calderon to your list, and I say that those 4 and Dwight are your top 5 contenders. I think they give it to Calderon. People I'm a hater of: Carlos Arroyo, Hedo Turkoglu,Trevor Ariza, Brian Cook, Republicans, The Troops, Jesus, Quality Posting in Game Threads, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears "We are sexy, sexy Von Neumann machines." Well, let's have look at Calderon's stats: Season RPG APG PPG 06-07 1,7 5,0 8,7 07-08 3,0 8,6 12,5 really nice improvement. But I think Hedo had a similar improvement in his secon season in the league: Season RPG APG PPG 00-01 2,8 0,9 5,3 01-02 4,5 2,0 10,1 He's almost doubled all stats as well. "See, I like Turk's improvements, but I'm still not convinced he's the most improved player on the team, much less in the whole league." Are you serious? really? much less in the whole league? This guy won a lot of games for us, became a 20ppg player, had 2 triple doubles, dramatically increased all his stats. Again, are you serious?

GP MPG AST APG 1 LeBron James , CLE 54 40.5 406 7.5 2 Hedo Turkoglu , ORL 61 37.8 292 4.8 3 Paul Pierce , BOS 58 37.8 271 4.7 4 Andre Iguodala , PHI 61 39.3 279 4.6 5 Caron Butler , WAS 43 40.2 193 4.5 Hedo is the 2nd best forward player in entire ligue in total assists and a/per game. However this does NOT mean that he would be the best pg. So I do agree nbr34205, we should keep him in his natural position and encourage him to handle the ball more in offense and take the advantage of a real good play-maker forward.
