He is "Special Ed", give him a break.

BTW, one of my favorite characters.

Boop boop de boop...yay!

That's true. But my point is that at Alabama, basketball is an afterthought.

Just like at Florida. But they have a coach that backed out on an NBA job to stay there.

Fulmer also "got fired", but they try to let these guys go out with a shred of dignity.

And yeah, who cares?

And it couldn't have worked out any better for the Orlando Magic.

Certainly to this point - but then again, anybody can coach Dwight Howard.

They have done better. CM Newton and Wimp Sanderson were both infinitely better than Gottfried.

I liked CM better than Wimp. One benefit of being older is I got to see CM put the likes of Leon Douglass and T.R. Dunn into the SEC in the early 70's. I think he helped push the league forward and those teams were fun to watch (or in my case mostly listen to on the radio).

I'm thinking there's a bit more to Orlando's record than just Dwight Howard.

Please Bama take M. Davis away from UAB - that would solve 2 problems for me.

He'll be 2nd or 3rd in MVP voting.

That doesn't disprove Tiddy's comment. There's more to Orlando leading its division than just Dwight Howard.

Dwayne Wade's a helluva player, having an MVP-caliber season....the Heat won't be winning the Southeast.

Exactly. Stan Van Gundy is a great coach and has now proven it with two different teams.

Speaking of Wade, I'm surprised he isn't getting more mention for the MVP himself. Obviously it already has LeBron's name on it, but he along with Kobe are about the only two names you see mentioned in the discussion.
