And he got a vote for All-Defense
Yeah, people can laugh, but Boozer is actually great with the fans.
I just found out that a friend mine actually sat next to him and had dinner WITH him, when Boozer's sister graduated from Peperdine University. Why didn't he tell me?!?! I would have jumped on a plane and been there!!!!
BTW, according to him, Boozer is a great guy.
Completely deserved. That coach is the only guy in the NBA who knows defense!

Boozer is the kind of guy you would chat it up with at a bar and no homo implied. It'd just be a damn awesome conversation.
They were all at a big table. It was a dinner for the graduates and a guest. His sister brought him, and my friend sat next to him.
Oh lol
I thought he was in the same place and saw him and just sat next to him talking lol
Knowing Boozer and how great he is, he would have probably been A-OK with that.

I bet when the guy sat down, Boozer yelled out "AND ONE!!!" to the waiter.

NBA media largely voting on players they don't see more than 4-5 times a year.
Did he beat Love??? If so....fuck them.
Nah, Love is on the 2nd team as well.
Full list for your reference:
All-NBA First Team
Chris Paul
Kobe Bryant
LeBron James
Kevin Durant
Dwight Howard
All-NBA Second Team
Tony Parker
Russell Westbrook
Kevin Love
Blake Griffin
Andrew Bynum
All-NBA Third Team
Rajon Rondo
Dwyane Wade
Carmelo Anthony
Dirk Nowitzki
Tyson Chandler
i know his fashion is terrible, but i don't think you can call it ignorant.
Tyson was about 5 x better than dwight this year.

You did that man wrong, dy.
So wrong.
Griffin 2nd team. wow. WITH another pf on the team too.
seems like they just wanted lebron and durant to both be first team to they listed durant as a pf. and since there are no pfs on the first team they put 2 on the second...idk, just really weird. same thing with westbrook. like they just really wanted to include him. 3rd team is the only one that has all 5 guys at their listed positions.
dwight shouldn't be first team, i hate bynum but if it's between him and tyson I'd probably give it to him even though i'm knicks-age (although tyson should have obviously been on all defense team). need to choose one of lebron/durant (love deserves to be first team PF imo), and while I didn't watch enough of kobe to really back this up I feel like he isn't the best 2 in the league right now either.
weird lists.

The voting is done 1 Center, 2 Forwards, 2 Guards like the All-Star Game. PF/SF and SG/PG distinctions aren't involved.

Bullshit is what it is.
Concerning Orlando -
So let me get this straight:
1) Get Dwight to waive his option
2) Fire Stan Van Gundy and Smith
3) Entertain interviewing SHAQUILLE O'NEAL for your GM opening
4) Then plan on trading Dwight Howard???
What the fuck.

All aboard! The Love train!
I'm pretty sure most of GAF doesn't have a driver's license, either.
Because most of them are 14

Yeah, but a thread will pop up in the OT every few months where you have 20-something year old dudes admitting they can't drive.
So now I just assume most users can't drive.

Man with the new CBA seems like literally everybody that's an all-star gets a max deal these days. Wtf. Shit is so broken.
How does this help bad teams? Makes it almost impossible to acquire franchise leading players in any way other than the draft.
Seemed like last CBA The Wiz might have zero chance at getting the Wades/Brons of the world but if we were willing to overpay for Harden/Hibbert then it was possible...we can't even do that now.

That Finals roster (that lost in 5 games and wasn't some unstoppable force) consisted of shitty guys like Rafer Alston and a Hedouche who required a new contract whereas Vince came off a 20/5/5 season and was considered by some an all-star snub along with Ryan Anderson as a throw in in a deal where Courtney Lee was the only worthwhile player given up by Orlando

Every playoffs this damn thread ruins me. Eventually I wander back over to gaming, realize how utterly insane everyone is then come running back to best-gaf. In the off season ill start drinking the koolaid again but for right now. I see clearly!

That series should have been much closer though. If Jameer never comes back I think it at least goes to 6 games.
Shit, I wish!
