    It's going to be very interesting to see if we're even mentioned among the teams after Durant.

    You stepped so far back, you lost sight of where Portland is on the map. :)

    Blank check and Lillard needs to hit up Adidas so they can get started on the "Olshey 1" men's loafers.

    Meh. Another individual award with undefinable standards and no tangible benefit to the team. Not worth getting upset over.

    Just noting:
    COY top 3--GSW, POR, SAS
    EOY top 3--SAS, POR, GSW

    One franchise set a wins record. One franchise tied the home wins record. And one team outperformed expectations by 66%.

    Who votes for this? Neil got the most 1st place votes, but apparantly many people didn't even have him as their 2nd or 3rd place option.

    I'm not seeing what many of these GMs did. Why the 76ers GM? He's gotten a ton of picks and his team still sucks.

    Anyway, having a good GM is one of the most valuable thing in sports. The good ones keep you competitive for a long time.

    Well, since the top two coaches are facing each other now, can we swing an opportunity for the top two execs to face each other next? :ghoti:
