Hell the one replay looked like he took 4 steps.....but he's proving to be a pretty athletic 7+ footer, unfortunately he isn't shooting the 3 worth a shit but that's where the coach wants him to keep it opened up for the quick guards. He was solid from 17-19 last year and good in the preseason from 24, but not so far.

Who's RF? The defense? I think he stepped up as Mullens approached (if not he's the worst defensive player ever)

It for sure wasn't a travel though.


He took off, off of 2 feet from the dotted free throw line circle. That's dumb.

Can't argue with what he's accomplished in a calender year.

When I first saw the nominees I thought Gabby Douglas would get it, maybe Phelps.

I will be sure to throw that SI edition to the trash when I get it in the mail. Thanks for the heads up.

It always surprises me how much of a 180 turn his image has made by the media. He was on everyone's hate list until he won the championship, now they all love him.

I just can't get much put of reading SI anymore. Stopped renewal about 2 years ago.

ESPN Magazine has fallen ever quicker. Both are about 10 minute reads anymore.

SI is 100x better than ESPN mag. The only reason I get ESPN mag is because I have an insider account.

This makes me LOL as well. All of a sudden Cleveland fans are supposed to forgive him, because he won a title. Last time I checked, ring or not, he is still a POS.

LMAO, what a fucking terrible idea.

[h=3]Hornets To Change Nickname To Pelicans[/h] Dec 04, 2012 7:04 PM EST
The New Orleans Hornets are expected to become the Pelicans as early as the 2013-14 season, numerous sources told Yahoo! Sports.
A change of the nickname has been expected since Tom Benson purchased the team.
Benson owns the rights to the nickname Pelicans. Louisiana is known as the Pelican State.
The Hornets also considered the nicknames Krewe (groups of costumed paraders in the annual Mardi Gras carnival in New Orleans) and Brass.
With the Hornets abandoning their nickname, the Charlotte Bobcats can possibly change their name.
