Tom Thibodeau is the NBA’s Coach of the Year. In his first year with the Chicago Bulls, the team is at 48-18. The Bulls are running neck-and-neck with the Boston Celtics (with the Miami Heat chasing them) for the Eastern Conference top seed. And yup, I think that Derrick Rose is a legit MVP candidate. Who will win it though?
Ironically, the New York Knicks are 6-5 since acquiring Carmelo Anthony from the Denver Nuggets. The Colorado team he left has won 8 of 10. Go figure.
Now that the Miami Heat have dealt title contenders Los Angeles and San Antonio big time loses, has the worm turned for them? To early to tell but the play offs, two weeks away, should tell.
SMB import David Young didn’t play so well during last week’s disaster against Smart Gilas. He was so unnerved by all the talk of a tsunami in the Philippines that he wanted to leave. SMB management have spoken to the player and assuaged his fears. Now if they can get everyone on the same page. More on SMB in my column for next Monday.
