    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BigMo763 @ Jan 15 2007, 08:32 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>- Billy King growing a pair and trading Allen Iverson, then buying out Webber. The only thing left is for him to fire himself.- Knicks/Nuggets brawl- Utah Jazz- Amare's return to form this quickly- Only one coach being fired so far this season- Knicks in contention to win the division (moreso because it really sucks)There are more but I can't really think of them right now.</div>Growing a pair? That was the worse thing he did as a gm. We were not going to get anything good anyway why trade a guy like AI? Webber I agree with he is told old and his knee problems.But Yeah my list is:- AI To Denver- Amare being back so fast- Webber going to DET- Boozer playing good-Heat sucking it upI am sure I could think of more, but to damn tired all most 5 AM.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ASUFan22 @ Jan 15 2007, 08:59 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Amare being so good so soon.Celtics struggling so much.</div>I would have never expected to Amare come back and play the way he has either. I had practically written of the Suns this year because I thought that Amare was going to hurt their progress. He sure as hell proved me wrong.I was a little bit surprised about AI being traded. Just for the fact that he has been the face of the sixers franchise for so long. Carlos Boozer, Deron Williams, and the Utah Jazz as a whole have surprised me a great deal. They have been playing great this year, and I cant take anything away from them. I have the same feeling with the Lakers. I knew they would be good, just not this good.

    Gilbert Arenas.I knew he was good, but didn't think he would come out and make people put him into MVP discussion.

    - Gilbert Arenas actually being mentioned more than once in MVP discussions. - Timberwolves somewhat turning it around this year.- The Hornets having a mediocre record. It's not their fault that they're losing (injuries), with a healthy team the Hornets are definitely a top team in the West (especiall with Paul leading the team). - The Rockets actually winning without Yao or McGrady. - AI actually being traded.. it was just hard to see him in another uni besides the Sixers uni. - Monta Ellis blossoming into a great player so quickly and unexpectedly (MIP candidate, anyone?).- Etan Thomas' tremendous start to the season. - Detroit only being 6 games over .500 so far. - Gerald Green's performace.- New Jersey doing so badly so far into the season (they seem to always have a slow start and they pick it up, but this year it's been later than when they've picked it up before). - Philadelphia being the worst team in the Eastern Conference. - The Grizzlies (they got screwed with Gasol being injured, Rudy Gay's a nice player, though).
