Power Rankings: Kardashian Edition

PrintJohn Schuhmann points out this week that the Nets, who he moved up two places to #23, are "1-1 with Kim Kardashian in attendance". The supermodel turned reality TV star turned Kris Humphries' special friend was on hand to watch The Hump's four-block performance, a big lift for the struggling Nets. There are other indicators of course. As Schuhmann tweeted following the game, "Nets are now 5-1 when Devin Harris scores 21+. Only loss was to Orlando in the final seconds".
Marc Stein points out the larger Kardashian Connection in moving the Nets form #26 to #24: "If the rumors are true about Kris 'Career Year' Humphries and Kim Kardashian, maybe Prokhorov wins that ring sooner than anyone thinks, as the Saints (Kim, Reggie Bush) and Lakers (Khloe and Lamar) could tell you".

Nets gotta get back to the level where we could once say things like this
The Nets laughed off most of the talk that surfaced from the Knicks and laid claim to being the superior team for the third consecutive year.
’’That’s what it proves,‘’ Martin said. ’’They played an excellent series. But we’ve been saying it for three years now, we want to prove who the No. 1 team in the area is. We helped that cause today.’’
Kidd's statement was bolder
‘’Well, with all the talk, throughout the year, they were going to catch us, they were the better team, they wanted to play us in the playoffs,’’ said Kidd, who finished with 20 points, 7 assists and 8 rebounds. ‘’Well, like I said, sometimes it’s fool’s gold. Sometimes you wish for something that you want and in reality you don’t want it. But they got what they needed.’’

ah the good days
where we didn’t care about “development” and had to deal with crap. It was just go out there, defend, and beat the opponent senseless.
I miss that Nets team.

Team played on pure chemistry and playmaking by Kidd
But the exact same issue we face today plagued them: who is your go-to scorer in the half court set?
We got by with ally-oops, following up misses, fast breaks, and sporadic shooting from different people throughout the year.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
I was thinking about this the other day
we never had that go to scorer when our opponents wisely kept us in half court sets. When that happened, there were times where Kidd took the team on his back and played outside of himself to get this team a win. Whatever had to be done was done.
I respect Kidd on the court for that time. He played like a man and everyone followed his lead.
Who is going to step up and play like a man for this team when the going gets tough? Who can the Nets rely on to get a basket even if it means coming up injured or bleeding?

When we offer the contract to Humph this offseason
They better put a Kim incentive in it. No kim = 30% less off contract with a 1 year buyout, and if he stays with Kim = max contract :p
no doubt. she is a very fine looking woman. fans sitting around her will pay no attention
to the fact that the team is lousy.
Kim has a "magical power" it seems.
We need to find a way to hook up Kourtney with Brook Lopez. Dude would probably pup Blake Griffin numbers after one “date”.

Yeah … there is no way that Brook(e) could close on Kourtney, he’d get shut down then flail his arms in the air in frustration and pout for about three seconds before making a move on Khloe.

Marry her so we can extend your contract . Who cares if most the deviants on NetsDaily have seen her on film with another man? DO IT. DO IT.
Prokhorov needs to pay Kim to come to games. Something, anything. Her power needs to be collected and used for a greater good

More like convince Kim K. to marry Hump...
He may not be big enough of a superstar for her. Hopefully he’s taking care of business and she’ll stick around.
Yormark must be loving this. She definitely brings great publicity to the Nets. Shes got 5.5mil twitter followers keeping track of her every move….
The real question is...
Will the Hump be making an appearance on “Kim and Kourtney take New York”?
Yes, it's my understanding
THAT is the reason why they went on a date in the first place. She needed an athlete to appear on the show and go on a date with her, and he was the one.

Sorry to burst your bubble guys but
So Hump is just
“dating” her on the side? While she has a boyfriend?

This seems like our exact story
20. Bucks (6-10). Look at their point differential and this looks like a .500 team, but when you have the worst offense in basketball (looking at points per possession) you lose a lot of games you should win.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
yeah but they also have a top 5 defense in basketball based on points per possession
where as we have one of the worst offenses and one of the worst defenses.

It turns out it was the hand of a blonde friend sitting next to her.
Which supports a case against blondes.
And the Knicks continue to have an easy schedule.
That is why it is so important to beat them.

Antoine Wright, the seldom-used swingman of the Sacramento Kings who has only made headlines this season for a DUI, has been waived by the team, according to Marc Spears of Yahoo.
The Kings signed him this summer out of Toronto, but he has barely gotten off the bench. Wright has played just 31 minutes total for the Kings this season and more than 10 minutes in a game just once. He saw 5:23 of action Saturday night against the Bulls where he grabbed one rebound and missed one shot. Put this way — so far this season his PER is -5. Small sample size, but when you’re in the negative you’re out of the NBA.
Not that you expected much offense, Wright was brought in as a defensive specialist, but he hasn’t done a lot of that, either.
The Kings signed Wright to a guaranteed $854,389, so he is getting paid that regardless.
No word yet on where he will land, but smart money says the D-League somewhere. The guy has been a regular NBA bench player for five years, someone will take a chance on him.
Damn didn't know Antione fell off that badly
hopefully he saved his money

DeMarcus Cousins kicked out of Sacramento practice
Kurt Helin
Nov 29, 2010, 6:21 PM EST
Leave a comment Remember how at Summer League a lot of people were watching DeMarcus Cousins play and saying, "how did he drop all the way to No.5?" (I’m sheepishly raising my hand…)
Well, um, the rumors of him being difficult to deal with are apparently more than rumors.
DeMarcus Cousins was kicked out of Kings practice today by coach Paul Westphal, according to a tweet by Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee. No details on why yet, but we’re all looking forward to that (and the spin that comes with it).
There apparently have been repeated clashes between Cousins and the Kings coaching staff, which has led to fines and more. Of course, this didn’t stop other teams from calling about Cousins (kind of the opposite).
But that gives the Kings two very talented young players with reputations of being challenging to deal with at times (Tyreke Evans is the other, though apparently not on the scale of Cousins). If you don’t think chemistry matters, go try to find the Kings in the standings (and they are 1-9 in their last 10).
The sad part is
we’re the only reason as to why they aren’t on a 10+ game losing streak.

I don't think Cousins is that good.
Coleman, for all his indifference, was actually quite productive.
Cousins is shooting 38% from the field. That’s awful. He’ll be lucky to be as good as Coleman.

the comparisons have always been laughable
DC may not have given a damn about basketball but he could play. Cousins is big, fat, and a baby
we drafted the right kid. Sadly, we’ve not committed to this kid because we’re hard up for one of these primadonnas that will probably end up getting Avery fired

Just a matter of preference. I didn’t say I wouldn’t smash, but it’s all relative. In terms of comparing her to other celebrities and popularized attractive women I think she as well as Megan Fox are overrated.

See I would never use the word pretty to describe Megan Fox. Never. She’s sexy (not anymore after what she did to her face), but to me she’s not pretty. I’ve always said that she was overrated and after her recent surgery it seems to have come to fruition.
Personally, I like Scarlett, Olivia WIlde, Mila Kunis, Bar Refaeli, just to name a few.
The Resident Black-Jew
I agree about the difference between pretty and sexy
there are guys who i think are “pretty” but don’t interest me in the least. Yet for some reason I’ve always had a crush on Tayshaun Prince who kind of looks like an anorexic skeletor.
