NBA Players I'm Rooting for in 2009-10

With links to better articles than this one. 

Carmelo Anthony

For bulling his way past Kevin Durant, Dwight Howard, and Brandon Roy into the conversation with LeBron, Kobe, and Dwyane Wade.

Brandon Jennings

For telling the NBA, "F*** your b.s. age limit. Look how dominant a pro I became without your NCAA slave labor system." Somewhere Jeremy Tyler is buying a No. 3 Milwaukee Bucks jersey.

Paul Pierce  

For sending out the memo to everyone that the Celtics are still the team to beat.

Every Houston Rocket  

For telling Yao and T-Mac, "You know what, just stay on the IL this year. We got this."

Kevin Durant, Jeff Green, Russell Westbrook, and Thabo Sefolosha  

For informing the league that the Oklahoma City Thunder are here.

Ron Artest  

Because I just love Ron Artest.
