Rivalry Weak

Of all the Chris Paul vs. Deron Williams head-to-heads we have seen and will see over the years, last night’s won’t exactly go down in history. The Jazz got the win — which has kind of been the norm in the series so far — clinching the Northwest Division and proving […]

Insane-O-Meter

With Ron Artest and Stephen Jackson sharing the court, the Insane-O-Meter at Oracle Arena was in danger of going on overload. The damage wasn’t too bad: Ron-Ron picked up a technical foul in the first half, and S-Jack probably should have gotten one when he went temporarily ballistic on ref Violet Palmer […]

Should you pick up Barnes?

Ryan Gomes - I drafted Gomes (and cut him pretty quickly). He has real ability and if you remember from last season, there was a while he was an automatic double/double. Obviously […]

T.J. Ford - It looked really bad, and knowing T.J.’s history with spinal/neck injuries, the incident is frightening. Without a doubt the Raptors are going to be extremely cautious with this […]

The G.O.A.T. (in Europe)

First it was Reggie Miller. Then Penny Hardaway. Then Allan Houston, and Doug Christie and Charles Oakley. Now guess who’s lacing ‘em up again? After some rumblings of a comeback last season, none other than Scottie Pippen. And Pip already has a team lined up, but it’s not in the NBA. No, Scottie is reportedly […]

1 Big Fish Left in the Sea

Enough to get the Lakers past Round 1?
And you thought the Kevin Garnett trade was the last big move of the offseason? Don’t bank on it yet. We hadn’t heard anything from or about Jermaine O’Neal since a few J.O.-to-Jersey trade rumors died down around Draft time, but yesterday Jermaine was back in the headlines. […]

What Now?

Being born and bred in Beantown, I couldn’t be happier with yesterday’s events. Today though, my excitement has already turned into anticipation of our next move. I’ve been preaching that Brevin Knight would be the perfect piece to just about anyone who will listen to me since the Celtics acquired Ray Allen. I still think […]

Ultimate Warriors

Knowing full-well that teams who blow a chance to close a series in Game 6 almost always lose that ensuing Game 7 (we’re looking at you, Houston), the Warriors had to win last night. They did just that, and it was much easier than we ever would have predicted. It was a thorough, out-and-out piecing […]
