At times yes.

Like Herrmann is not able to make a shot right now, and Afflalo is a better defender. So let's leave Herrmann out there?

I read this in the LA Times today.
"If the V in MVP actually counted, they name the trophy after [Chris Paul]"

I must agree with this.

+1

With LeBron from the LeBrons as second. For the obvious reasons.

Cavs tied a franchise record for most wins in a season, and Zydrunas Ilgauskas broke the all-time Cavs record for blocks. He already broke Cavaliers rebounding record this year as well.

If LeBron doesn't win the MVP this year...the NBA is a insane.

Pistons coach Michael Curry was ejected in the final seconds of Sunday's loss to the Heat, and a few players commented on the officiating after the game.

Detroit was upset that a foul wasn't called on Dwyane Wade as Rodney Stuckey drove to the basket on the team's final possession.

"They were calling us for those same fouls all game long, riding Wade to the basket," said Tayshaun Prince. "You can see why Coach Curry got thrown out the game because of that situation, and we felt what D-Wade did to Stuckey at the end of the game, they were calling us for those fouls on the other end over the course of the game.

"Obviously you know in late-game situations they are going to try to let us play, but I think you saw the inconsistency there when Stuck drove on that play and got rode all the way to the basket, and that was pretty much the game right there."

Wade blocked Stuckey's shot, but the Pistons felt as though there was significant contact.

"I guess the ref saw it different," said Stuckey. "I thought I went to the basket aggressively while he had 10 of his fingers on me and they didn't call the foul.

"He's an All-Star so I guess you are going to get those calls."
Thank you.

I grew respect for Curry yesterday.

It was just that really. I could make a nice video of all the bull calls in that game for Wade.

the one who pisses me off isnt LeBron, it's Chris Paul.
he freaking throws himself into the opponent and forces contact to get the foul. it's BS
he's the only one who i hate with his BS calls. everyone else is fine lol
Bron, Wade, Kobe

Well this is the way I see it. On that last possession when Stuckey was fouled, with the no call. There is no doubt in my mind if that was Wade driving on Stuckey, they would call that easily and Wade would be getting 2 shots.
Not only that but then Wade steps out of bounds with like 1.6 seconds left...

It just pisses me off, they needed to be much more consistent in that game.

Ariza: 15.2 ppg, 63% fg/ 55% 3pt, 5.2 rpg, 1.8 apg, 2.7 spg in 6 games as a starter

no that is not a typo. He is seriously shooting 55% from 3 and 63% total!
