sfaJack 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2003 I don't think I could agree more. Both guys are class acts, and deserve all the success they have had. Bravo, David and Tim. And bravo for SI as well. Great choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Choken One Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Who was it that compared Duncan to Hannibal Letcher? That they were talented and smart but no one really knew anything about them. There's something "iffy" about T.D man... We thought KOBE was a nice guy too... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ripper 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Despite Chris Bosh and Jarvis Hayes being the ones that will probably deserve it. Yeah, something like that. Who?... Chris Bosh plays for the Raptors. After a slow start to the season(and playing off the bench) he is averaging 13.3 points and 9.0 rebounds since the Antonio Davis/Jerome Williams Jalen Rose deal and 11.6 points and 7 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game overall. I'm just bullshitting about Hayes though. Anthony and James are both playing great but I think that Chris Bosh, with his new role, would be giving them a run for their money. Of course, you can guess how many votes HE is going to get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Does anyone really take this award seriously anymore? SI usually makes the easiest picks or the stupidest picks they can think of. I liked the Robinson story but wasn't he out most of the year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Actually, I figured they'd go with the even easier Annika Sorenstam story. They surprised me a bit with this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Jarvis Hayes doesn't have any form of shot at the Rookie Of the Year. Well I guess theres a chance but unlikely. I'd still say Anthony and Bron are having better years than Bosh up to this point but no question, he's playing a lot better than anyone expected I'd say. I'm gonna say Lebron plays at an even higher level with Ricky Davis gone frankly and Carmello is becoming 20 points guaranteed every night. Don't think Bosh is gonna have a shot but still one of the better rookie classes in some time. Hell, Dwayne Wade too, he's playing good ball. SI shoulda just given it to Robinson. Even when arguing with officials, all he says is "Golly gee, I disagree, God Bless" then walks away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Tim Duncan just a few weeks ago SHOVED a ref to the ground for no reason and screamed TAKE THAT BITCH~!, grabbed his nuts and spit...SPIT on the poor man forcing the league to suspend him(I'm guessing thats what happend). Is that SPORTSMAN OF THE YEAR contender. Well...IS IT? And Jarvis is having a bad December, but he had an outside chance. Chris Bosh has been playing great these past few games, the question is who will make it over the midseason hump. I think Darko will come from the rear like Freakin Sea Biscuit and still this shit.

Guest Mindless_Aggression Report post Posted December 17, 2003 Tim Duncan is WILD AND UNPREDICTABLE. I'd seriously love it if he came out with the Rodman hair or the Anthony Mason hair at least. Fuck the establishment, Tim Funkin has arrived. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
