You all are wrong. Brian Scalabrine led the league in and-1s. with DJ Mbenga 2nd. The Veal demands you have some!!!

Three Stacks: it was And-1s, I saw the same graph. Lebron was #2.

K-Dizzle, Amare was the leader in and 1′s this year…by a lot. They showed the numbers during Spurs-Suns game 1, I think he had like 137 or something. 2nd was Allen Iverson, he had about twenty less.

The blurb you heard about Dwight was probably that he led the league in double-doubles.

Here’s the thing, as long as it’s not malicious, there’s nothing wrong with it. I didn’t think Haywood should have been tossed from game 2. It was a flagrant, but not a flagrant 2 (or 1, whichever is the one that gets you tossed) and even then, it’s pretty close.

Apparently, you have 3 choices in the NBA now.
1. Hard foul – this is what you’re supposed to do. Don’t try to hurt the guy, but make sure he doesn’t finish the lay-up. Make him earn it from the line. Unfortunately, with strong guys like LeBron (or Shaq and any other big guy) you have to hit him so hard to stop him that it looks bad and guys get tossed unnecessarily.
2. Slap foul – we all know this drill. The defender that didn’t hit the guy hard enough/kind of just stuck his arm out to avoid a flagrant. The guy driving invariably runs right through it, finishes no problem, and one.
3. Just let him go and run back on defense. Unfortunately, this is the worst thing you can do, but it’s looking like the way the NBA wants it to be.

No blood, no (flagrant) foul. Come on Stern…

K Dizz thanks. I figure him or Stat. Dwight is just hard to stop once he gets position.

You right, Stern doesn’t like violence lol. If he was ever over hockey, he would just end that game for their fans.

I hate the Wizards but it is the only chance they got at winning so you cant knock that.

Get Dwight to shoot over 60% in FT’s and he’d average 30 points easy.

Gee

I heard it on a Raps game that D howard was the leader in and 1′s

This story on the Wiz tryin to take out Lebron by any means necessary won’t make D. Stern very happy

It’s a good strategy for Eddie Jordan to apply.
I am just scared that Lebron may get hurt. The wizards would feel awfully bad if they actually ended this mans career through these tactics.
The Haywood foul was scary. I thought Lebron may have been done.
My advice to Lebron is to hit back just as hard, you know how some running backs not only get punished, but also punish with the shear force they come at the defenses with. My advice to Lebron is to come at em hard just like they are coming at him, flail his arms like Kobe, hit whoever.
