'Tinsley's Jazz Renaissance'

Tinsley is averaging 5.9 APG in only 19.5 minutes per game.

With Mo Williams missing games due to minor injuries this season, Utah Jazz head coach Tyrone Corbin has gone to Brooklyn-native Jamaal Tinsley as the replacement point guard, and the nine-year veteran has produced quality results.  Tinsley, 34, is coming off a 14-point (4-6 3PT), seven-assist performance in 31 minutes Nov. 24 against the Kings in Sacramento, and has been a solid contributor for the Jazz (7-7) as backup point man early this season.  He's only scoring 2.2 points per game (9.1 PPG career) but he's dishing out 5.9 assist per game while spending about 20 minutes on the floor a night, putting him second in the NBA in assists per 48 minutes with 14.6, trailing only Rajon Rondo (17.1).  Main thing about a guy like Tinsley, you better watch the 5-hole whenever you're defending him.  He's still not too old to go 'Mel-Mel the Abuser' with the ball handling and put you on the YOUTUBE highlight reel.

'Trent Richardson>Adrian Peterson?'

Trent has a long way to go to catch up to A.D.'s exploits.

Before the 2012 NFL Draft, I updated a status on my Facebook page saying that I wasn't buying into the Trent Richardson being a better prospect than Adrian Peterson hype. 
To be clear, I was not trashing Richardson or saying that he would be a bust.  Rather, i was simply stating that expecting him to be as good as/better than Peterson is/was an egregious sentiment, as A.D., in my opinion, is one of the most special athletes to come about in any sport in the last 30 years.  People bugged out (mostly Tide fans) and started un-'liking' the page!
This is a small sample size, but take a look at the numbers between Peterson and Richardson through their first nine career NFL games.  If Richardson is gonna live up to his pre-draft hype, and comparison's to Peterson (who btw is punking kids left and right in 2012), he's got a lot of catching up to do.
