I still read Bill Simmons religiously, but often a few days late, like going to temple on Tuesdays. I realize a lot of you don't anymore so here are some snippets from his NBA preview:
Carmelo Anthony
Not only are LeBron and Wade leaving him in the dust, but even Darko Milicic is getting some "Leo the Late Bloomer" buzz lately in Detroit. Meanwhile, 'Melo is the Marissa Cooper of that 2004 class -- a strong first season with a ton of promise, followed by a disappointing second season when everything possible went wrong. Of course, Marissa took a major leap in Season 3 of "The OC," suddenly started looking like a woman and seems headed for the Jaclyn Smith Hall of Fame for TV Babes. Good sign for 'Melo. And yes, I think he springs for 25-plus a game this season.
Paul Pierce
As the Sports Gal randomly said while watching two minutes of an exhibition game last week, "He seems happy, he looks like the old Pee-Pee again!"
(Yes, my wife calls the best player on the Celtics "Pee-Pee." Don't ask.)

The main reason that Melo's game degraded was cuz of LA LA. She's a mess, and she's bringing him down.
