Deron Williams Says He Is Undecided On Future With Nets

I suppose I understand how Deron Williams could possibly not like playing for the Nets.  He’s from Texas, kinda settled down in Utah for a while, and is now forced to live in New Jersey by way of a trade he claims he didn’t ask for. It’s also possible he may not particularly enjoy Brooklyn […]

Real Jealous Of Andy Rautins For Moving Back In With His Parents

Maybe if I didn’t write blogs about sports I’d have moved back in with my parents by now too. The stigma associated with a grown man who both lives with his parents, and writes blogs about sports, was too much for me to overcome however.   So onward I go making my way in this […]

Brandon Jennings On His National Barnstorming Tour

I haven’t heard Brandon Jennings answer this question directly, but I imagine he’s not surprised by the challenges faced by some of his NBA brethren currently playing professionally overseas during this Lockout.  Ty Lawson appears to have had a rough go of it lately and Deron Williams’ Turkish experience has been met with some negative feedback […]

Allen Iverson wants one last chance in NBA, and I think he deserves it

Life is graded on a scale, it isn’t fair. Chances that some people are entitled to are simply chances that other people don’t get, would never get, and frankly don’t deserve.  If you want to make an argument that Allen Iverson burned every bridge he had to the NBA, and the result of which has […]
