No the title you just read is not torn from the pages of a joke book or from The Onion. You read that correctly. The goofy big red head and the often used punch-line in NBA jokes, Brian Scalabrine, is currently playing for Italian squad Benetton Treviso and recently put on a show. Well at least for one game. […]

So it kind of went like this in the Real Madrid huddle as a play was being drawn up for Rudy Fernandez: Coach: We’re going to set up a simple play for Rudy to take the three and get us a possible 4-point play. Rudy, stay behind the three-point line. When you get the ball, […]

While the NBA players and owners are duking it out in meetings over a new collective bargaining agreement, China and Australia were duking it out old-school style. And by old-school I mean a good old-fashioned bench-clearing, chair-tossing brawl. The Melbourne Tigers and the Foshan Dralions took part in an exhibition game in China and as […]

So you know how NBA teams cannot contact their players during the lockout? Well I’m sure the Detroit Pistons’ coaching staff would happily take the hefty fine to tell Jonas Jerebko to lay off ice skating with the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings. I mean, what can possibly happen to their 6-10, 230 lbs. player (who […]

With a range of dollar figures being tossed about during the CBA negotiations, it just seems like neither side will be satisfied. Players want their fair share of the pie (BRI) and the owners are dead-set on making a $300 million profit. Now a federal mediator has intervened yet nothing has been settled. So how […]

Aside from making out with his girlfriend on live T.V., Washington Wizards’ Jan Vesely is apparently quite the baller that made him the sixth overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft. From his ability to get to the rim and finish strong to his surprising athletic ability for a guy who stands 6’11”, Vesely seems […]

It you live in Canada, you better make sure you are not wasting energy or a mustachioed man with aviator sunglasses who looks suspiciously like Phoenix Suns’ Steve Nash might be on your case. Nash is partnering with Canadian company BC Hydro’s Power Smart to launch a new iPhone app called The Pocket Waste-Buster. The […]

Well this is painfully awkward. What do you get when you mix the Samba, the Lambada, the Macarena, Andrei Kirilenko and Nenad Kristic? A train wreck so horrendous that you just can’t divert your eyes. The two are playing for CSKA Moscow during the NBA lockout and apparently got suckered into doing some dancing which turns out […]

The Occupy Wall Street movement is holding strong and has gone global. Americans and other people from around the world have taken to the street to voice their dissent against corporate greed, corporate-controlled governments, and the majority of wealth being hoarded by a slim amount of the population. Well at least I thought that was the point of […]

Imagine if your father was considered the best NBA player ever to grace the hardwood, is recognized worldwide, has a sneaker named after him, won six NBA titles and your father’s name is Michael Jordan. Talk about huge footsteps to follow. But that is exactly what the sons of Jordan had to deal with all […]

My never-ending quest to find videos of NBA players thinking they can rap continues and this time it’s Oklahoma City Thunder’s Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook taking the mic. Now what is funny is I do not like rap music at all, so for me to be on this quest is quite ironic. But I […]

What I am about to tell you is true and is not pulled from the satirical pages of The Onion.  Famed conditioning coach Tim Grover says Eddy Curry is in excellent shape. Yes, you read that correctly. Curry, often the punch-line in fat jokes, is in shape and if true, he just might land himself […]

The New York Knicks’ history is flooded with many NBA legends, and memories. From Bill Bradley, Patrick Ewing, and Willis Reed to two NBA titles, MSG, and Walt Frazier’s glorious suits, it all adds up to one undeniable fact, this franchise boasts memories to last a lifetime. And apparently it also means Knicks collectibles can […]

So this can’t be good. It’s bad enough the NBA lockout has shelved all preseason games including the first two weeks of the upcoming season comes this nugget of bad news. According to everyone’s favorite NBA Commissioner, David Stern, if no deal is done by Tuesday, the lockout can last until Christmas and wipe out […]

With the NBA lockout having no end in sight, could Miami Heat’s Lebron James take his talents to the great Northwest and join the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks? Well if head coach Pete Carroll could have his way, James would certainly have a spot on the Seahwaks’ roster and it all started when James asked what […]
