OT: I will listen to Eric Snow more...

[DaRizzle]

He has horrible speaking skills but I guess I might have to listen to what he says more.

...the only guy to predict the Finals correctly

...and evidently Payton has no clue

Wow Gary's picks were absolutely brutal

What's interesting is that both Fernandez and Bayless got a vote each for ROY. Greg Oden has had a few votes for ROY.

LOL at the Bayless picks.

I know, holy cow lol wtf is Payton smoking?!??!?

And I love our guys, but Rudy, Oden and BAYLESS for R.O.Y ??????? Wow!!!!!! These guys are supposed to be professionals.

Other than GP, I don't see any of those picks being that far-fetched from the beginning of the year. It just looks really silly now.
It'd be fun to do one here for next season and see who looks like idiots.

If Garnett is healthy this year, Snow doesn't look nearly as smart. Magic would have been crushed by the Celtics.

Funny to see somebody picked Mo Cheeks as Coach of the Year. D'oh! I will lay odds that he never, ever gets another such vote.

5 guys picked McMillan for COY. If you told these experts at the time that this team would earn the 4th seed in the West after all those brutal years, you'd probably see even more votes.

The Oden votes look funny in retrospect, but I though he was a decent candidate too. I, like many others, just underestimated what a year off and microfracture surgery can do to a guy.

You know we need to do a Matrix like that one with all of our predictions, that would be a ton of fun.

To be far to Payton, these were made before the Iverson trade. I bet once that happened he wished he could take it back. And the Hornets pick was bad tho.

All of these picks were made before the season even started so it wasn't that farfetched to assume Bayless would be playing on our team, considering who our other PGs are.
