I really am starting to feel bad for Knicks fans. Donnie Walsh was almost done untying all the knots Isiah Thomas created in New York only to run up against a stone wall in James Dolan, so he left. Now with some hope of having a good team with Carmelo Anthony and Amar’e Stoudemire on […]

With the NBA lockout raging on and players weighing their options on what to do should the lockout eat into the upcoming season, perhaps New York Knicks’ Carmelo Anthony can forgo playing overseas and take his talents to Wall Street. Anthony took part in a charity fund raiser to commemorate 9-11. The event was to […]

The 2011 FIBA Americas tournament is over with Argentina taking gold and stamping their passport for the London 2012 games. Another country who also qualified for the Olympics was Brazil by coming in second in the tournament. A surprising feat by Brazil considering they were without the services of Nene, Leandro Barbosa and Anderson Varejao […]

If ever there was a time for Reebok’s Pump Division to enter the competitive world of Men’s Dress Shoes, that moment has arrived. After earning legendary status in the eternal history of NBA dunk contests for his Pumps inspired win in 1991, Dee Brown is back on NBA sidelines in desperate need of some supportively fly kicks to complement his Armani’s. I was […]

There’s nothing I can do to stop the flood of 2K12 posts. When every move they make is awesome, they get rewarded with a flood of free advertising from us bloggers. Congratulations. The latest is Michael Jordan doing what he does best… brag… in the new commercial for the video game. Though I’m pretty sure […]

As October inches closer and training camp usually starting in a matter of weeks, so does the final word on whether there will be a new NBA season or if games will be lost due to the lockout. And as much as there has been some positive news lately that the season will be saved […]

The summer of the Pro-Am showdowns continues in a couple of weeks as Baltimore takes on Philly on September 25th. Well, it’s not really “Baltimore” against Philly. It’s more like some Baltimore guys, and a bunch of Carmelo Anthony’s megastar friends. [Hakim] Warrick has assembled Team Philly, which will include Kyle Lowry, Lou Williams, Jason […]

Dwight Howard is the most dominant center of this generation. With rare exception, he has been able to physically dominate just about everyone who attempts to guard him or take him on. And Orlando’s last dominant big man, Shaquille O’Neal, says he knows why. “If Dwight doesn’t win two or three championships, I’m going to […]

Sure there are positive signs the NBA season might start on time but reality is the lockout is still in effect and it’s dangerously close to affecting the upcoming season. Namely training camps. That’s right, if the lockout continues this month, training camps will be the first to feel the impact of the lockout and […]

Kevin Love posted an update on his Facebook page around 2pm today that read: “Houston, we have a coach.” As opposed to 1995, that is, when Tom Hanks informed flight command similarly in Texas that his team had a “problem.” That coach to replace Kurt Rambis in leadership of Kevin Love’s Minnesota Timberwolves is widely assumed to be Rick Adelman. A report from the Minneapolis […]

Even though MJ may have felt like talking about Andrew Bogut while in Australia is basically the same thing as talking about wine when in Italy, he still wasn’t allowed to do it. The NBA may be locked out and unable to reach players with their long arm of David Stern’s legislative department, but they can still […]
