The Mikeatrarian

-Watched bits and pieces of the final Team USA exhibition game versus the Aussies and they looked far from impressive. My belief is that if they continue having Dwayne Wade as the primary scoring option, the gold medal will never be attained. He requires so much time and space to get into positions to score that it takes away from the team essence. Even when he makes a sweet pass, (like the ones to Bosh) its usually the result of a long, drawn out play that is dominated by Wade having to have the ball in his hands. I'm also fascinated by the Nike commercials that show every Team USA player except for the Adidas man Dwight Howard, who could very well be their most important player.

-So Hardwood Paroxysm has a writer called The Arbitrarian who is the site's expert on statistics. I understand some of his work but the math gets a little dicey and it usually takes me an hour (no joke) to comprehend a majority of his articles (or this one....or this one). Perhaps Mike, who very well might not even be reading this at the moment, could be the site's statistical expert. He could make sense of all of The Arbirtrarian gibberish and put it into people terms. Than come up with his own brilliant all encompassing statistic that will blow all past statistics out of the water. Just Beans And Cheese!

-NBA League Pass better start thinking about extending their coverage to the European Leagues.

BallHype: hype it up!
