Yeah, no. It's been clearly outlined that he is, considering most of his game is played in the mid-range.

you know how I know you're wrong, cause stephen a smith calls him a forward.

Most people do, because that's the position he plays on offense.

The NBA doesn't generally have the traditional 1 through 5 these days. Guys play on the wing or near the block, and multiple guys handle the ball. You'll see wing guys go to the block if matchups allow for it, or guys who play near the block shift out to the wing. The more versatile a player can be, the higher his ceiling is.

Duncan can play the 4 or 5 depending on who the Spurs are playing against, who is on the floor at the time, and who his teammates are that season.

John Wall and Bradley Beal are what Kyrie Irving and Dion Waters should be if they weren't busy submarining their team because they are both selfish players.

Nene is just getting mugged every time by Noah.. Did they make a deal to not call a 3rd foul on Noah until the 4th?

oh, and the nene ejection is huge... dumb move on his part though to grab butler on the neck. he deserved it for that.

 

[DesiPower]

Brooklyn and Toronto, perhaps one of the worst officiating of this playoff, wow, just wow

 

[dbk]

Nene was already super amped up getting no calls the entire game..barking at the refs..couldnt control himself..hope theres no suspension looming

He also pulled back his fist. That's a huge no-no.

"I have nothing to regret," Nene said. "I'm a warrior right there. What I did, I'm supposed to do."

Lulz what an idiot. I hope he gets suspended.

Oh my god that Houston/Portland game. Lin half almost made them lose then half saved the game. Harden is also trash shooting almost 30% again on 35 shots.

 

[DesiPower]

Fade away spurs, make it quick, remove the burden from my chest so that I can enjoy the rest of the playoffs

 

[lupi]

booyaa

Hopefully spurs are the next to lose se we can have them, okc, and indy all under pressure of looking at 1-3.

good game by the mavs, through most of the game they never let the spurs get more than a bucket ahead.

 

[Schfifty Five]

Freakin' amazing Mavs game! Huge shot VC!!!

 

[DesiPower]

There you go, it started, strategy of cripple Memphis with early fouls. I am sure by the end of 1st half, main players will have 3 to4 four fouls

 

[Schfifty Five]

Dammit, OKC won. That look on Westbrook's face after winning in OT. ugh, want to smack him so hard lol.

That Connelly 3 at the last second was so close. 1 inch in and it would have went in!

 

[dbk]

Grizz missed way too many FTs..Mike Miller missed two at the end! whaaaat

 

[DesiPower]

yup Memphis slacked a LOT

 

[vi edit]

Bulls fans can take comfort in the fact that 8 years ago Chicago traded away LaMarcus Aldridge for Tyrus f'n Thomas.

To be fair Tyrus Thomas can jump higher. So, you know, there's that.

My heart isn't healthy enough for this Rockets/Blazers series. Actually, I don't remember the first round of the playoffs being so competitive across the board. Only two series seem like foregone conclusions (Miami/Charlotte and Washington/Chicago), and despite holding a 3-1 lead, Portland and Houston are going to overtime 75% of the time... This is madness. Great playoffs all around.

The East is pretty boring. CHI/WAS is probably the only "exciting" series over there.

All series in the West are ridiculous. Best NBA playoffs I've seen in awhile.

Let's go Mavs!

all I will say is that JLin is terrible, Joey Crawford is horrible and Dwight Howard missing that dunk was rather remarkable.
