Are you surprised that J.J. Redick won the Naismith Trophy?

No, he's a terrific shooter, and if he played on a NBA team like the Suns he'd be an all-start by his sophmore year.

Make it Game 7 of the NBA Finals and I would go NBA. Id still probably go to NBA because i know more pro than College. I can name everybody that plays in the NBA almost. But I barely know 20 college players. I watch the tournament this year so i really wanted to go. And I was going to but my dad said since there is no #1 seeds in final 4 he didnt want to go. So he promised me if New Jersey or Detroit makes Finals i get to go. Well New JErseys is obviously out which would be easier cause i live there. But I still believe Detroit can rally against the heat and make the Finals.

haha it's not just you. Miami had the championship giftwrapped for them. That's the way David Stern runs his business

ABSOLUTELY!!!  Look at what they did this year with almost all freshman.  These guys are only getting better!  And, have you seen some of the players coming in... SICK!  Winner of the McDonalds All American Slam Dunk Champion for one (last time we got that one it was Vince Carter)

Very much so. Last year and this year, sportswriters were constantly suprised by his performance. Truth is, he is an excellent back. He started getting some recognition this year, let's hope it sticks.

It was definitely a shocker for me. I figured he would win. He definitely was the most talented of all contestants. He will be around though so show your support and make sure you follow him on his journey to greatness.\n\nCHRIS DAUGHTRY ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quite simply, yes.  But, as a Duke fan, I've experienced the seasons after Johnny Dawkins, Tommy Amaker, Danny Ferry, Christian Lattener, Bobby Hurley, Wojo, Shane Battier, Jason Williams, and all the enjoyable players that have come through the Duke program.  So I've been through it, and while you hate to lose the guys, I've come to understand and accept the cycle of college basketball life.\n\nFortunately Duke's success in recruiting year in and year out has helped immensely with not dwelling on losses of all-star talent such as Reddick.  In short Duke fans are spoiled, I'll be the first to admit.  Every season we're excited to see how our new team will be perform, and there is never a question that we'll challenege for the ACC regular season title, nor that we'll qualify for the Big Dance and even compete for a #1 seed.\n\nThat all said, Duke's starting 5 might feature:\nGreg Paulus at point (soph)\nDeMarcus Nelson at shooting guard (junior)\nJon Scheyer at small forward (freshman)\nDavid McClure at power forward (soph)\nJosh McRoberts at center (soph)\n\nIt's a young lineup, and I'm tossing out McClure's name because I don't know if Duke landed a big man for next season.  Jamaal Boykins is another thought for power forward/center (soph).  So all in all, a young team, but one loaded with potential, both in the starting 5 as well as coming off the bench.

i did.  not an oilers fan but gotta admit they played great.  the game was exciting as i expected it to be.  i am cheering for sj to beat nashville. i am cheering for detroit.  don't get me wrong, i like edmonton and give them great respect but i really think detroit will win this series in six or seven games.

Though this placing may look bad for J.J's talent it will pay off in the long run. J.J.'s an ok driver but an amazing shooter with being this far back in the draft he'll be able to sign with a more developed team that may be running a more productive offense such as Detroit or the Heat. In this kinda of offensive set they we'll be able to develope plays for J.J perticually allowing him to get shots with out that much coverage and with out having to put the ball on the floor. he is definently going to need a supporting cast though that way it will take some off the defensive pressure off of him. But yeah I'm definentely a Duke fan and have been since I was like six. Go Duke!!!! How bought McRoberts though that boys a player!!!!!

Yes i do agree with you J.J Reddick is a man, but look at all that other players do to spark their team.. Villanova lost without Allan Ray. Anyways, there are tons of spot up shooters in the NBA so i think J.J. should work on other areas of his game (such as defense)

it will be an exciting season! we can never tell who will gonna win the title this year, and  with the old-fat o'neal, miami can't defend their title! and there's a lot of sleeper teams in the west, utah, lakers, houston!  \n\nwho's gonna win the scoring title? kobe? ai? lbj? we can never tell?\n\nhow about mvp? my vote goes to kb24!

i dont even like the lakers that much but ill be honest and say that you should have won the mvp award without a doubt. youve been under intense scrutiny the past several years and you really handled the pressure and stayed on top of things and i admire that. My preseason prediction for your team was probably the same as any other expert analyst, which was no way the lakers can make the playoffs! but you proved me and many others wrong. This was definately the best season youve ever had so far in what will be an illustrious career for you, your performance was spectactular. you won the scoring title and set some franchise records along the way with your consecutive 40 point games and the magical 81 against the toronto raptors. In the playoffs you really gelled with your teammates and even though you lost, you proved to the haters that your team wasnt a one man show; it was a helluva run this year. I really have to give you your dues for growing into a complete player and becoming a leader, you did good bean!(Kobe "Bean" Bryant) It is a travesty that you didnt win the MVP Award and i believe you were robbed.

George Mason just played better.  This was like a home game for George Mason, and home court always has the advantage.  \nI'm a Shockers fan however.

JJ REDICK-tell when you have seen a person like jj nwho has been blessed with so much talent on his team score 28.0 points a game so he the ideal person for all that he has been through and it would be great if 5 years from now to see a rivalry but jj redick is a better ncaa b-ball player
