So you're into the evil look.

I dunno.  I don't think Emily looks evil.  I mean I suppose Zooey looks much more girlish/innocent, sure.

To bring this back on topic, Emily definitely would kick Zooey's ass at basketball.

Which one is more athletic though?

To each their own, but I'd cast Emily as the evil Bond Girl.

She's got a greater advantage than Shaq had on most centers.

Well I watched a decent amount of Bones back in the day when I was hungover/couldn't sleep.  Hard to see her as evil with that as your basis.  Annoying, yes, but that's the Deschanel trademark!

Shaq and Yao Ming play tennis doubles against Zoey and Emily Deschanel.  Who wins and how badly did Z/E embarrass the tall guys?

Good loss for the Magic tonight at Cleveland.  Fultz and Anthony both played well in their second game back.  You can really see the makings of a solid 8 man rotation if they can get Carter and Suggs back and everyone else remains healthy.  That wouldn't include Isaac - nor Bamba, Ross, or Harris - the latter three are imminently tradeable at the deadline, potentially freeing up quite a bit of money for next year...

Orlando has also taken over the worst record in the league.  The Bulls are at 8th worst, which is pretty ideal for getting that pick and maximizing its value - they only have about a 26% chance to get a top 4 pick....

Davis is playing insane now. It will for sure make the Lakers more competitive but hard to see them being better than a 5 or 6 seed though. Given how uneven the west is this year might give them a shot at a series win but hard to see much more.

I hate that team performance keeps individual brilliance out of mvp conversation. its such a weird award. Everywhere else, player of the year is just for the best player, no punishment for your colleagues being shit.

I mean in the NBA if you're the best player in any given year your team should at least make the playoffs.

I don't take these awards too seriously, but who are you implying has been passed over? Davis? Maybe if he wasn't injured all the time he'd have a case. Or if Westbrook didn't get one over Harden because he averaged a couple of rebounds more.

I don't think anyone has been passed over for the award. But people are kept from the conversation because of the weird assessment criteria.
