APC Open Thread #10: Where Acie Law Gets Beat Off The Dribble

PrintYes, the offseason is upon us. As is the beginning of the end of the Hunt of the Stanley Cup , yet another round of the NBA Playoffs (Screw those, it's basically LeJerk to the Eastern Conference Finals) and the early going of baseball.
Final exams and graduations? They're closer than you think. Good luck to all those in school.
Rules of the thread:
NO POLITICS
NO RELIGION
NO THREATS
NO NAME-CALLING OTHER POSTERS ON THIS BLOG
Absolutely NO SAYING YOU'RE THE FIRST PERSON TO POST
If you were one of the people who rec'd the previous open thread to move it to the Recommended FanPosts section, please go back to that previous thread now and un-rec it. That way, the previous thread will move out of that section, and these won't be cluttering APC as much.
With those rules in mind, have fun.
Yes, I'm well aware that neither the Warriors nor the Rockets made the playoffs. They shouldn't have.

So the farce that is the NBA will be over in another month or so?
‘Cuz I really don’t care about the big-market team drama David Stern has in store for all of you.
And if anyone is rooting for Oklahoma City, well, sorry. But also, why?
CSB: I went to college “back East” with a bunch of northeast prep-school kids. I matriculated from public high school in New Mexico, and yet, when they handed out nicknames on the floor, the kid from Tulsa, OK was assigned “Hick”. He protested this one night (after many beers), pointing at me and saying “He’s the hick!” Everyone looked at me, looked at him, and just started laughing. The Okie bastard hung his head – a born loser, just like everything else from that barren, godforsaken land.

Dude...
Boston, San Antonio, and LA are all out. Unfortunately, the Miami cHeat are still in; hopefully Chicago can take care of that last remaining problem.
Super Bowl XLV Champions, the Green Bay Packers!
That's nice
Fun bar trivia fact: Only 8 different teams have won an NBA Championship since 1980. Philly, Houston, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, LA Lakers, San Antonio, and Miami. Do you really think that a team other than one of those will win it this year?
And if you do, what’s your favorite charity? I will wager $25 that one of those 8 teams will win the NBA Championship this year, with cash payable to your favorite charity. If you choose to think that any other team has a chance at it and accept the wager, I would ask that you donate $25 to Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International.
You game?

Ha, that would require me having $25.
But I would like my chances if I did have it; only 1 of Miami/Chicago can come out of the East, and they’re not guaranteed anything.

Watching highlights
Top 9, 2nd and 3rd, 2 out for Kelly Johnson facing Brian Wilson in SF.
Kelly Johnson…flies out to CF.
I have never personally witnessed a single player fail so many times in clutch situations and still be considered desirable. May he have a long, miserable career punctuated by meaningless home runs for any team in the NL Central besides the Cubs.

They absolutely should look into it,
The team looks like a national championship contender without one thing…a legit, good QB with experience. Budmayr has only played in 3 games and was pretty bad in the Spring game, and he is pretty much the undisputed starter right now. Russell Wilson, on the other hand, is a 3 year starter in the ACC and had a 17-to-1 TD-INT ratio in 2008.
The problem, he is playing baseball right now though and at best could join the team and get in Fall Camp weeks with the team to learn the plays and gel with the receivers. So I support adding him, but only if he attends Fall Camp.

The comments are a win.
There’s a lot going on here that we aren’t being told. Has anyone ever actually seen Lord Vader’s birth certificate? I bet that could tell us something.
Look at Vader; taking all the credit. Oh well, back to my post.
And now that Vader has done what Emperor Palpatine couldn’t do in 7 years, the imperialists are trying to give old wrinkleface all the credit.
I find it so convenient that the “mainstream media” often ignores the fact that Emperor Palpatine helped fund Obi-Wan’s band of jedis back when he was a senator. Had Senator Palpatine not authorized such funding, Obi-Wan would not have been a menace all these years!
Whether you’re glad he’s dead or not, at least they’ve quit talking about that stupid royal wedding on Naboo. How is that sh*t newsworthy?! Bunch of rich people playing dress up while our troopers are dying. Though the new queen’s sister is HOT.
Sadly, even this victory likely won’t satisfy Vader’s critics — they can’t stand that he is black.
For all you who claimed Darth Vader was a secret Jedi, now will you pleas STFU?!!!
Anyone else notice Vader’s speech was delayed an hour to preempt EBC from airing “Celebrity Padawan”? Double-owned!
No, I am NOT making these up.

Breaking News on the Conspiracy Against the Vikings!
http://www.dailynorseman.com/2011/5/12/2168405/nfl-networks-top-100-of-2010-officially-a-farce
Chris Gates superb logical reasoning has uncovered another aspect of the NFL’s conspiracy against the Vikings. Here he argues that the Top 100 current players list is a farce….because it does not include……… wait for it………. any second now…….
ANTOINE WINFIELD!
Really? If Nick Collins, a multiple Pro Bowler is in the 90’s….. and QBs and WRs own the largest share of spots…… your sub par Corner/Revolving Door isn’t making the list.
Remember, this list is made up by the players themselves……so you know how the old saying goes. If it looks like shit, smells like shit, tastes like shit. It’s probably shit. If the players won’t put you in the Top 100 then he’s just not that good, or this conspiracy goes deeper than the Illuminati, Bilderbergs, and Knight’s Templars combined.
There’s being a homer……and then there’s being Chris Gates.

In any case, Winfield’s elite YPC numbers have more to do with how he is used, not how good he is.
He is elite at tackling RB’s that catch check downs and screens and he does it often. That will skew a YPC stat pretty quick. I rarely ever see AW more than 5-10 yards down field. Don’t expect him to keep up with Jennings on a 15 yard seam route, or out jump Jordy on a 20 yard fade, or out muscle Jermichael in the middle of the field.
Fantastic tackler, for sure. Top 100 player, very borderline, but it is def. not some big conspiracy against the Vikings.

This only asks the question in regard to players on the roster vs those on IR. Not players from past seasons (Kampman, or your example Favre).
I sort of led you into your response by saying “on the roster at one point during the season” when I meant on the team in general, so my bad.
And yes, Vic has been doing a great job for Packers.com. Did he replace someone or is he just a new feature/addition to improve their traffic?

New feature
Well, sorta new. He moved “Ask Vic” from his gig at the Jaguars, and many of his old fans followed him over. Now that he’s gone through the hazing period, the column is generally more informative and he’s starting to talk more about football in general and not just Packers football. It’s in my “read every day” bookmark list.
I sound like his frickin’ agent, don’t I?

An update is out. PSN isn’t back just yet, but it shouldn’t be long.
If I didn't know better, I'd think the Brewers were a halfway decent baseball team...
Here's an idea...
Players you think are underrated.
NBA: Andrew Bogut (the fact that this man hasn’t made an All-Defensive team is a damning indictment of the NBA)
NFL: Tramon Williams
Editor at BT Powerhouse, a Big Ten Basketball blog.

Bogut...
So long as Dwight Howard is a dominant player, nobody else will even get a look at the center position. Sad, but true.
Super Bowl XLV Champions, the Green Bay Packers!
Howard and Noah made it over him and Bogut isn't completly healthy yet.
maybe in the future. Deng should have made it on the defensive team as well

No. No. NO.
Despite anchoring a good Dallas defense, centers defended by Chandler still managed an above-average 17.4 PER, according to 82games.com. Bogut’s counterparts, meanwhile, earned a mere 13.9 PER. Let’s not forget that Milwaukee’s DRtg was still a full 2.5 points better than the Mavericks’, and Bogut’s -3.6 on/off-court DRtg differential was the best of any Buck.
Throw in shot blocking (Bogut led the league, Chandler was 18th among centers averaging 20+ MPG), defensive rebounding (Bogut 4th in DRR, Chandler 7th), Bogut’s stellar ability to draw charges, and more—the choice seems obvious.
Still, it’s not simply that Bogut was snubbed as the second-best defensive center in the NBA. Bogut received a grand total of ONE POINT from the coaches (players were awarded two points for a First Team selection, one for a Second Team).

More evidence...
103.8 pts allowed/ 100 possessions…NBA league average is 104.3, and the Bucks without Bogut would be ranked as the 14th best defense in the NBA.
The Bucks overall defensive efficiency this season (including all games…Bogut and non-Bogut) is:
100.2 pts allowed/100 possessions…this ranks the Bucks as the 4th best defense in the NBA.
So now let’s see how good the defense is with Bogut (ie- how he pulls them up from 14th best defense to 4th best defense). I do a bit of math to take the season efficiency value and adjust for the 12 games without Bogut to find out just how good a defense the Bucks have been in the 49 games with Bogut, and the result is:
99.3 pts allowed/100 possessions. This is good for 4th best in the NBA.
With Bogut: top 5 defense.
Without Bogut: 14th overall defense.
IT MAKES NO SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!

Damar: And so two years ago, our government signed a treaty with the Dominion.
In it, the Dominion promised to extend Cardassia’s influence throughout the Alpha Quadrant. In exchange, we pledged ourselves to join the war against the Federation and its allies. Cardassians have never been afraid of war, a fact we’ve proven time and again over these past two years. Seven million of our brave soldiers have given their lives to fulfill our part of the agreement.
And what has the Dominion done in return? Nothing. We’ve gained no new territories; in fact, our influence throughout the quadrant has diminished, and to make matters worse, we are no longer masters in our own home. Travel anywhere in Cardassia, and what do you find? Jem’hadar. Vorta. And now, Breen. Instead of the invaders, we have become the invaded. Our allies have conquered us without firing a single shot.
Well, no longer. This morning, detachments of the Cardassian 1st, 3rd, and 9th Orders attacked a Dominion outpost on Rondac III. This assault marks the first step toward the liberation of our homeland from the true oppressors of the Alpha Quadrant. I call upon Cardassians everywhere. Resist. Resist today. Resist tomorrow. Resist, until the last Dominion soldier has been driven from our soil!

That's not fair.
Selig can’t implement a cap on his own. The owners would vote him out in a nano-second if tried, for one thing, but far more importantly is that if he tried to implement one without it being signed off on by the players union in the CBA, MLB would get their asses sued for unfair labor practices. And they’d lose. You can’t put artificial limits on the amount of money businesses can spend on labor in this country UNLESS it’s part of a collective bargaining agreement. If you try, you lose everything in civil court and people have a tendency to end up in federal prison.
The owners pursued a cap/floor (and broader revenue sharing) during the labor strife in the early 90’s. The union refused to accept any offer that included a salary cap, and after canceling the world series, the owners folded the following spring in the face of another year of no revenue and a rebellious fanbase that was in danger of blinking out of existence rather than stick to the demand for a cap. They tried to use the luxury tax as an alternative, but it’s so ridiculously high that only the Yankees end up paying it, and as we all know, the Yankees have so much fucking money they could give a shit about paying the luxury tax.
The main reason Selig hasn’t implemented a salary cap is because he can’t; not because he’s desperate to protect the Yankees. There are plenty of reasons to rip Selig, but this isn’t one of them.

Wow. Just...wow.
I really, really hate North Carolina, but they’re simply a better team than we are next year with the players they have. Traveling there is NOT fun for opposing teams.
Last year’s team might have been able to do that, but this year? I don’t know. I’d just love it if Wisconsin pastes the hell out of them, though.

Being from Minnesota I’ve got to read about Rubio and hear about him all the time and I’m sick of it. Did anybody else see him play in the NBA preseason against the Lakers? He looked horrible. And then there’s the whole only averaging like 6 points and 4 assists.

Zach Brown is apparently transfering out of Wisconsin
It’s too bad, but there is just too much depth for him to have a chance at making an impact, so it’s the best move for him. Thankfully for Wisconsin, that same depth means it probably won’t hurt the Badgers too much.

Haha, yeah.

You saw it, I saw it… Dirk dominated OKC.
Super Bowl XLV Champions, the Green Bay Packers!
I disagree pretty vehemently.
Why are the Lakers and Spurs out by the second round if the league hasn’t changed? Why does Nowitski lean INTO a defensive player and get a call?
The fact is, the Mavericks have COMPLETELY gotten the benefit of the doubt from the officials through the playoffs. There’s no reason one player should be averaging 10 free throw attempts per game through a playoff series except officiating. I might point out that you’re always going to support officiating as long as it supports your team. If it was Durant who was at the line 24 times instead of Nowitski? I can’t imagine you’d be thrilled with that.
Oh. Wait. Durant attempted 19 free throws. Westbrook 18. That’s just ridiculous. Stern is catering to Westbrook, Durant, and Nowitski in the playoffs, and denying it is denying the obvious.

And you're completely ignoring the fact that Dallas bench might have had something to do with them winning the game (and several others this postseason, for that matter).
Look at tonight: Dallas bench 53, OKC bench 22. Are you going to tell me THAT had nothing to do with the outcome of the game? I bet if I go back to the Portland and LA series, the bench was also the difference for the Mavericks in those games as well.
To imply the Mavs have advanced this far due to officiating is ridiculous.
Super Bowl XLV Champions, the Green Bay Packers!
No, it really isn't.
I’m afraid that if Dirk had shot 14 free throws instead of 24, the Mavs would have lost the game. The worst part is you’re trying to justify the inexcusable number of free throws Dirk alone shot tonight. You are not going to win this argument with me. Dirk attempted 6.7 free throws per in the regular season. Suddenly, he gets to the playoffs, does the exact same thing, and he’s going to the free throw line all the time. No, he wasn’t shooting 10 free throws per game against the Lakers. He shouldn’t have been shooting 10 FT’s per game in the first place.
With that being said, he was lights-out from the floor tonight. I just can’t condone him shooting 24 free throws against a team with no interior defense or depth.

Dirk’s # of FT attempts, in each game: 13, 17, 7, 4, 11, 11, 5, 5, 4, 2, 24.
9.3 attempts/game. Leave out last night, it goes down to 7.9. Oh, the conspiracy!

THATS HOW YOU COME BACK FROM A SERIOUS INJURY
I hope Kotsay gets hit by a dump truck and slips into a coma where he is stuck forever in Baseball purgatory having to bat against a three-headed, six-armed Lefty Hydra consisting of Billy Wagner, Damaso Marte, and Randy Johnson. - Shoeless In SC
Fun fact:
Kotsay was largely responsible for the Brewers win tonight.
If I didn't know better, I'd think the Brewers were a halfway decent baseball team...
Fun fact:
Adam Dunn will hit approximately 10 times more homeruns than Mark Kotsay

If by sleeper he means "look like they are sleeping every time they take the field"...
then yes, they very well could be. But seriously, its a make or break season for Erikson. If he doesn’t win or come close to winning the Pac 12 and get a good bowl game, then he is out.

"If [Ruth] had [called his shot], I would have knocked him down with the next pitch." -Charlie Root
Ain't no nerd like a Midwest nerd
I just went to get a cool beverage from the break room. I describe the following individual who was also present for the amusement of all assembled. Top to bottom:
Longish hair, which at least looked like it had been washed this week
Black, thick-rimmed glasses
Forest-green, long-sleeved fleece
Khaki cargo shorts
Dark blue dress socks
Gray crocs
There is a line between “I don’t care how I look because my brain is my most important feature” and “I never learned to coordinate once I grew out of my Garanimals”. This individual is firmly, probably irrevocably lodged in the nether regions of the wrong part of that line.

Be sure to watch your local Fox station to see if you can see the game. Although the Fox coverage map looks like they were picking county names and broadcast areas out of a hat.

As an added bonus the Minn Twins had a meltdown of epic proportions again...
against the Dbacks giving up a Grand Slam to a guy who, a week ago, was probably working his way to the minors cause he couldn’t hit.
And I thought last night was a good game where the Twins fought back only to blow it with the bases loaded in the 9th.
