Sports are getting into full gear. NFL is in midseason form. Hockey is starting to get interesting, and the NBA just began. That’s where we focus on, the NBA.

STUDS:
Brandon Roy, PG/SG, Portland
Best player on an upcoming team, that will only get better with the addition of Greg Oden.

Kevin Garnett, PF, Boston
The Defending Champs look to their leader to help repeat. A double-double from him doesn’t hurt.

DUDS:

Eddy Curry, C, New York Knicks
You could say that the entire Knicks team could be duds, but Curry takes the title. He has all the potential in the world, yet, for some reason, he doesn’t want to use it.

Richard Jefferson, SF, Milwaukee
He’s getting older, and doesn’t have Jason Kidd to facilitate.

Breakout Player:
Julian Wright, PF, New Orleans
Playing with Chris Paul doesn’t hurt. His amazing athleticism doesn’t either.

Breakdown Player:
Hedo Turkogulu, SF, Orlando
He had an amazing year last year, but there is no way he can keep it up.

MVP:
LeBron James, SF, Cleveland
Chris Paul is a close second, but LeBron is the best player since MJ.

EASTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPS:
Boston Celtics
Too good. Best team in the league.

WESTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPS:
New Orleans Hornets
Chris Paul leads them here.

NBA FINALS:
Boston over New Orleans.

Enjoy the NBA season folks.
