[UPDATE] Wed: 12:36pm - Original Post below
Something strange has happened. Vince Carter is no longer in this contest.... I think perhaps it was some kind of April Fools Joke? Not too sure.
I do know Canadians really hate him, and I thought Kobe won.
Still - Every B-Edger must now vote 24/7 for Brandon Roy. Let's wipe that smirk of Kobe's face!!
**** ***** ***** (original post) ***** ***** ***** ***** ***** *****
APRIL FOOLS!!
but....
Brandon Roy is in the Finals of TheScore.com 's King of Court Cuts Challenge!!
He is currently losing to Vince Carter! The margin (in Vince Carter's favour) as of 11:45pm is 90% to 10%.
Are we gonna let this happen?
Brandon Roy cannot lose to Vince "Super-Chucker" Carter.
Don't let Brandon Roy be Canada's April Fool!!
DEFEAT VINCE CARTER!!
Please Please Please VOTE for Brandon Roy!!
For the Junk Drawer portion of this post, I ask you thee fellow BLEdgers to chose whom you'd vote for in a "Highlight/Favourite player contest". But NO current Blazers are allowed.

I like watching Dwight
I enjoy seeing how Greg will look in a couple of years. Centers are kind of my thing.

Howard is easily one of my favorites right now. The kid is so big, so strong and so athletic—really fun to watch.

no rules, per say
however, the reason the junk drawer came to fruition was to deal with the overload of non PTB related minutia that was clogging up threads. So, to invent PTB themed junk drawers is somewhat counter to the intent.
This JD however is acceptable, as it not only plays on April Fools, but involves a fan fantasy NBA voting contest. Had there not been a JD posted, I’m sure Tom or myself would have correctly written up a “Your best April Fools day prank” Edition. Such is life.

Hey…I remember last year Steve Nash would do web cam chats on his way home from home games in his car. I thought it was a great way to interact with fans before twitter came about. I know that JD’s are pretty popular for us to just bs…but how about we do video chat rooms? We could use Stickam or Live Video or whatever flavor of the week site to host. It’d be a fun way for us to chat in real time. Anyone think this is worth pursuing?

Brandon Roy is the BEST player in the NBA in the clutch.

Because if so I would say he should get that one before MIP.

He is better
I just don’t know how he can win rookie of the year and the next year be most improved. His team isn’t any better, just his stats. To me “most improved” means they guy was bad or average then became all star-esque.

This is the same page that says Travis...
Attacks the basket hard and has “solid defense”. Now Travis is the man, but those normally aren’t in his descriptions.
If KD won most-improved, the category would officially be as useless as COY.

Should be Devin Harris, maybe Nate Rob
MIP should not go to a sophomore player ever. Of course they are improving and posting good numbers, especially if the same player won ROY the year before.

Someone needs to ask him this if they get a chance.
His wife’s quote on this was priceless:
“What’s forbidden is always desirable. And athletes, particularly men, are susceptible to all the things they are offered,” Lopatova said. “It’s the same way raising children – If I tell my child, ‘No pizza, no pizza, no pizza,’ what does he want more than anything? Pizza.”

Little lame thing I started doing
I used to wait at crosswalks with groups of people and I would wonder why someone would push their way through the group to push the cross button. The other day I walked up and there was three people across the street and four on my side and when I light changed I realized no one pushed the button so I just walked.
My new fun thing to do is if I get there first, I push the button, then I lean on the button so no one can touch it. Yesterday an old lady pushed me aside to push the button. I’m going to keep doing it. It’s lame of me but also fun.

I used to do this in college
If I had free time before a class I’d go close a classroom door and stand next to it. People would gather around me without ever trying to open the door, they just assumed it was locked since the guy there (me) hadn’t opened it. On numerous occasions I’d get around 20 people just standing outside the door with me.
I’m not pathetic enough to keep stats of this, but I’d wager that about 2/3 of the time I did this nobody tried to open the door.
Highlight reel
1. I got an entire class to just stand outside of the classroom until after the bell rang. Eventually, I just opened the door and walked away.
2. A teacher was one of the first ones there and just stood outside waiting. (Seriously teacher, who’s job is it to get that door unlocked anyway?)
3. A teacher came up, looked at us, looked at the door, and went to find someone with keys.

Kids at my high school would block one door that would connect two different hallways
between the last two periods of the day on Fridays. It was always the senior offensive linemen and they would block it until the bell rang and usually something like 40 or 50 kids would walk into class late as a result.
I think that that is hilarious that you would just open the door and then just walk away since it wasn’t your classroom. Pure genius. Screwing with people like that is hi-larious.

he had a message about whose boobs were boys most likely to have seen first (the question started with Kate Winslet in Titanic). And in it he included Scarlett Johansson in the Killing Game.

hmm let's see
a player who has basically single handedly turned around a franchise (both on and off the court no less) and is still only 24.
OR
a rapist who is getting into his 30s now and basically walked into the best franchise in basketball and the best situation (had shaq after a couple years).
hmm….

Nice page title (someone has a sense of humor)
Surprising. Even shocking. But this is sports.
Not life or death.
My 6 year old nephew crushes me in board games. Keeps me in check. I answer every email. I have strong opinions. But I find this surprising and shocking.
