Hey everybody,

I got invited to this sweet party.  It’s called the “Dawn of a Dynasty” party.  I don’t know what dynasty they’re celebrating, but it looks like it’s gonna be awesome. 

LeBron is hosting it.  He’s keeping a list of people that aren’t allowed in.  From the picture above, it looks like it’s being held in some sort of temple, but the photo below appears to have the party in some sort of gilded room.  Either way, I’m sure there’ll be crown-shaped cakes for everyone.

DJ Irie is gonna be there.  You guys know him… Plus, this dude pictured above with the mixed patterns and the corny sunglasses.  Also, these two cotton candy-soft dudes below with the bad suits. 

You know who else throws parties and has flyers like this?  Paris Hilton.  Ooh, and the kids from Jersey Shore.  LeBron’s just like them.

Just curious: If Rondo and Nash make the Finals, doesn’t that alter the “Chris Paul or Deron Williams is the best point guard alive” argument? I say yes.

I say no.  Listen, can we put this to rest?  It’s Chris Paul. Look at his ‘07/’08 season:

• 21ppg, 11.6apg (lead the league), 2.7spg (lead the league), 4rbg
• His team finished 56-26, first in their Division.
• He was probably robbed of the MVP by Kobe (who himself, at that point, had probably been robbed of multiple MVPs)

‘08/’09 season?

• 23ppg (on 50% FGs and 87% FTs), 11 apg (lead the league), 2.8 spg (lead the league) and 5.5 rbg
• His starting five had David West, a past-his-prime Peja, Tyson “The Paycheck Stealer” Chandler and Morris Peterson.  I dropped Morris Peterson in my fantasy league so I pick up Mateen Cleaves as a joke.

Paul has never had horses around him, and he still puts up numbers on the regular.  He’s hurt now.  You’re sleeping on him.  It’s Paul.  Chris Paul.
