The 3rd Annual Chocolate Puma Awards (NBA Edition)
My goodness what a load of craziness this past NBA season
has been. Now as it winds down it is time for your favorite basketball fiend to
give out his awards. So without further ado I present to you, the 3rd
annual Chocolate Puma Awards (NBA edition).
The 6th Man of the Year aka The Ernie Isley
Award:
James Harden, G : Oklahoma City Thunder- Before he was the victim
of a Metta World Peace elbow he was the top scoring option off the bench for
one of the league’s elite young teams. Averaging a shade under 17 points a game
to go along with over 3.7 assists per game and 4 rebounds per game the bearded
one would be a starter on most squads.
Rookie of the Year aka The Thomas Ian Nicholas Award (Google
him)
Kyrie Irving, G: Cleveland Cavaliers- Did the electrifying
guard from Duke make Cavs fans forget about Lebron? No. But he did give them
reason to not abandon all hope for the future. I was wrong in my assessment he
was going to be awful this season, although a lot of my initial observations
were clouded by my hatred of Duke.
Most Improved Player of the Year aka The Leonardo Dicaprio
Award
 |
| Much better representation of Bynum. |
Andrew Bynum, C: LA Lakers- Yes like Dicaprio in ‘The Beach’
Bynum wasn’t awful but he certainly wasn’t anything to write home about. But
like Dicaprio in ‘Inception’ he took his game to new heights improving his
scoring by 7 points per game, rebounding by 3 per game and making the All-Star
team. And to those screaming Jeremy Lin, shut up. Lin never got a chance to
play before so he had nothing to improve upon.
Coach of the Year aka The Steven Soderberg Award
Greg Popovich: San Antonio Spurs- Who had the Spurs as the
number one seed before the season began, raise your hand. I’ll wait. Nobody?
Wow. He has taken a team with a few old guys, a bunch of young guys and
masterfully balanced the hectic schedule resting the older players and getting
the younger guys needed experience.
All Puma Squad: 1st Team All Puma 2nd
Team
PG: Chris Paul Tony
Parker
SG: Kobe Bryant Dwayne
Wade
SF: Lebron James Kevin Durant
PF: Kevin Love Blake
Griffin
C: Dwight Howard Andrew
Bynum
And now gang the moment you have all been waiting for.
The Most Valuable Player also known as THE 3RD
ANNUAL CHOCOLATE PUMA AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN THE FIELD OF
EXCELLENCE.
Lebron James, SF: Miami Heat- This one pains me. I dislike
the Miami Heat like no team in recent history and Lebron? Ugh. But damn it I
gotta give props where it’s due. People can knock this guy for not taking over
in the last minute but what they fail to bring up is that he has been giving it
to his opponent for about 37-40 min at that point. A dominant scorer, pretty
good on the glass and can guard anyone from a point guard to a power forward. A
douche, but the most valuable player of the 2011-12 NBA season he most
definitely is.

Randomness Has Returned!
Oh goodness, it has been a while since I sat down and blogged for the delight of the tens of people whom I pester on a daily basis. Well gang buck up, your fearless leader (not counting clowns) is back and ready to give you all what you crave. Random, rambling and at time incoherent observations of random things! Here we go kids:
•The NCAA may be my favorite hypocrites on the face of the planet. After securing a contract that will net them billions of dollars off of college basketball alone the faux outrage over Kentucky winning the National Championship with players who were “one and done” is laughable. So let me get this straight, they play by your rules, make you money, but when they leave to make money for themselves then the integrity of the game is being threatened? Save that please. And for the record this is the first and only team with freshmen and sophomores mostly to win a national title. Calm the hell down.
•While I am on the subject of the NCAA, how about we tell Bo Ryan to calm the fuck down as well. I usually like Bo Ryan, even though his teams are boring as watching paint dry there is no denying on an x and o level this guy can coach with the best of them. But he’s dead wrong on this one. See he has blocked the transfer of a student athlete to over 25 schools. What makes this so funny is nobody blocked his decision when he skipped out after UW-Whitewater after 2 seasons not fulfilling his commitment. Just saying.
Go to a school where you're happy? Nah.
•John Mulaney is a funny mofo. Also just saying.
•So Kim Kardashian wants to be mayor of Gelendale, California eh? Well I mean no other candidate has the experience she has. How many other candidates can say they blew a failed R&B singer on tape?
•I find it funny some conservative groups are attacking Barack Obama because as a child he ate dog meat. Uh as children we eat some messed up stuff. Worms, glue, basically anything but food. Also how is that worse than an adult Mitt Romney tying a dog to the roof of his car?
•Ted Nugent is an assface. That is all.
•Also I caught a lot of flack for putting Iman Shumpert and Kenneth Faried in my top five rookies before the season began. Never doubt the Puma is all I have to say.
Well that’s all I got for now, until next time this is your hero, signing off.
