The NBA Regular Season is over and it couldnt end a moment sooner
A few things I wanted to get guys' opinions and comments on that happened during the year:
1) Does the 76ers' 38-44 record and fall from the Eastern Conference playoff picture prove that Maurice Cheeks is overrated as a pro head coach? I mean he did have 1 HOF, 1 perenial all star, and 2 or 3 good players to build a playoff calibre team around. Is Willie Green that much of an impact to the team that allowed them to fall 3 games under .500? What was the 76ers problem this year?
2) Does anyone think that Wobe Bryant will try to emulate his play this season of taking FGA after FGA with reckless abandon, entirely disregarding the TEAM game to go for individual records and cost the lakers even more games? Or will he see that that style of play doesnt work and actually CHANGE after they get swept in the playoffs by Phoenix this year?
3) Has LeBron James proven this year to be the most important player on his team not named Tim Duncan and Shaquille O'Neal? I still thought Carmelo Anthony and Dwyane Wade were better players than him until the start of this season but LeBron has proven that his play is unmatched by anyone from his draft class and he can only get better over time.
Lastly...
4) Has Ron Artest proven he was the REAL reason the Pacers were a contender the past few seasons? Without him, they clearly fall back into the middle of the pack.
