I see our NBA predictions both got posted today haha nice predictions mate. I’m with you on Kanter! Surely it’s his year for 6th man of the year. Dennis Schroder definitely has a great chance for most improved player but we’ll see if he’s consistant every night. Another sleeper for most improved player is Clint Capela he will get the chance this season to put up a double double every single night
2016-17 NBA season award predictions
100% his defence is shocking! I wish he put more effort on the defensive end. I think it should definitely influence the MVP award as well but I don’t think it will matter to the judges when they vote if he has the the numbers on the court this season which I think he will. Harden finished second in 2014/15 in MVP voting when Houston made the playoffs. I’m a LeBron man myself but I just don’t think he will get the major minutes on court this regular season to be able to reclaim the MVP award.
Harden MVP, Warriors champs: My NBA 2016-17 predictions
The Wallabies dream of having a lock like him. We’re stuck with bloody Simmons haha. Our physical lock Will Skelton can’t get a run because we’re playing two small 7’s in Pocock and Hooper and our lineout doesn’t have enough options to include him in the starting team.
Little Eben Etzebeth grows up
I think the lack of talent and depth in Aus rugby is the big issue.
Popgun boot: Why Quade Cooper should be recalled for the Wallabies
He’s finally got the starting team right this week…. could be too late.
McFadden needs to wear his thinking cap for team selections
Snake should move on next season too. For the good of the club
Trbojevic at fullback works wonders for Sea Eagles
Sounds like Noah is gonna team up with Rose but wow Phil Jackson is investing in guys with not much upside outside of the next few years. This team would have been fire 4 years ago. Headed for 5th or 6th in the east in my opinion.
No-brainer: Why the Derrick Rose trade makes sense for the Knicks
Thon at 10?? WOW!! What a shock!!

Would be nice to have Buddy in the backcourt with Mudiay! What do you think of Garry Harris?
Mock NBA Draft: Ben Simmons for number 1?
Haha that’s true. He really has been praising him. He said the same type of stuff about Devin Booker last year and he turned out MAJOR so I guess we gotta give him some benefit of the doubt.
Bender could even go 2 or 3 for sure I just think with so much talk about guys like Chris and even Brown possibly going top 5 that he may slide to 7. It really is an open draft 3-7 and yes Bender has been earmarked as Europe’s next big thing rightly so.
I agree. I love Okafor’s post game but Kristaps is on another level.
Atlanta now has #12 from Utah from the George Hill Jeff Teague trade. That’s a huge spanner in the works
Mock NBA Draft: Ben Simmons for number 1?
So many scenarios could play out. Mark Stein on ESPN tweeted the Celtics have been shopping #3 for an established vet but no takers. Other reports said Jimmy Butler, Gordon Hayward, Jabari Parker, and Kris Middleton have all been enquired about but the respective teams all denied the #3 offer. I think Murray is the best long term asset after the top 2 hence why I think he could go at 3 if the Celtics are looking to trade but realistically yeah for sure he could go anywhere 3-7. Those picks 3-7 are going to be very interesting. Couple of rumours also that Philly are trying to get another top 6 pick by giving up one of their big man in Noel or Okafor as they are very high on Kris Dunn.

Can we have a follow up article please? what a series!!! amazing game 7!
Dying as individuals: Cleveland’s meltdown
Wow shots fired! Can sense a bit of hate towards LeBron in this one lol. Good read though

“Mitch McGary is a dark horse pick for Most Improved player”?? Are you an OKC fan? Oh Gummon hahaha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7oNjuy6otg
Hardaway Jr? that’s a big call. I think Andre Drummond is most likely. Without Monroe on the floor he is going to put up numbers like 17/15 a night.
2015-16 NBA rookie predictions
Harden for me… Has carried Houston all season with Dwight in and out of the line up with injuries. The Rockets are 39-18 right now which is amazing considering their other superstar has been out so much. Harden can drop 35-40 points on any given night and you know how influential offence is on the MVP award these days. Curry in a close second for me, having a great year but I don’t think he’s been better than Harden, Westbrook is coming home strong with unbelievable numbers especially when KD doesn’t play. I think if Anthony Davis could have been healthy all season he was headed for MVP. The Pelicans are likely to finish 9th now which won’t be enough for AD.
Who’s your money on for the 2015 NBA MVP?
Hey mate… VERY HAPPY with the outcome of today’s draft!! can’t wait for next season and to see who we get at center.. what did you think of the draft in terms of the hornets???
Hornets trade Ariza, Okafor to Wizards
yeah I heard about the possible Millsap trade… sounds good
Hornets trade Ariza, Okafor to Wizards
They will definitely field a strong team but favouritism I’m not so sure.
So many prospects are coming through for the Roosters. Roger as you’ve mentioned and Kane Evans are likely to have an impact in the NRL sooner rather than later but Dylan Napa and Tago will take more time in my opinion. The roosters have Cherrington who could be anything if he gets some luck injury wise, I would have him over Guerra any day of the week. A firing Cherrington and SBW along with FPN at lock could well be the one of the most dynamic and explosive backrows in the competition in 2013. Add this to the front row of JWH, Martin Kennedy and Lama Tasi all I can say is WOW. Maloney and Pearce in the halves to go with outside backs like BJ Leilua and young superstar Tautau Moga and they sound bloody good . I think the roosters could well be up there next season but I don’t think favouritism as they will be fielding such a young team.
SBW, Tuivasa-Sheck could bring Roosters into 2013 favouritism
Ma man do u think they’ll have a go at signing McGee, Roy Hibbert or in the extremely optimistic case… Deron Williams??? looks like we might be waiting till the 2013 summer free agents to really make our big move… also with the 10th pick who would you select?? Lillard, Rivers or a big now like Zeller now that Emeka has gone??
Hornets trade Ariza, Okafor to Wizards
Josh Morris can’t handle it defensively….Lawrence is the man to play on Inglis with Jennings the other center
Origin winners and losers from City vs Country
That would be refreshing. I hope they do well this season
