Sidster: I think we have a few EPSIANS in NE...... Are you talking about A.Pradhan?? He is 4 batch senior than me......His younger brother and I were friends in school.....EPS rocks man.... Guys: Kobe got screwed big time by the voters in the MVP race...he was judged not on the basis of what he did/does on the basketball floor, but how he gets blamed for everything else that happens off the court...That suxs......Lebron James scored 0 points in the second half yesterday against Detroit, and no one is questioning him, but Kobe tried to involve his team-mates to get going in Game 7, and he is being criticized for not taking the shots.....I bet he is the most unfairly judged player in the NBA..and a victim of false accusations.....You guys should have listened to Colin Cowherd on ESPN radio this morning...he had the best arguments in favor of Kobe.....despite him being an avid Kobe Basher !!!
