Jennings Has Head Screwed On Right
Milwaukee Bucks rookie point guard Brandon Jennings has it together my friends. Never mind the sick 55 points he dropped a couple of weeks back against the Golden State Warriors breaking all sorts of records along the way.
What really got my attention was his appearance on PTI. He said something you don’t hear too [...]
Lebron’s Suggestion To Honor #23
By Alex
LeBron James, pretty much the best player in the NBA right now.
But not the best in history. And he knows that.
So with his No. 23, which he has been wearing since way back in his high school days, is making a switch to the No. Six.
Why?
James is giving his respect to the best basketball [...]
Thoughts On A Busy Night In The NBA
Last night was a very busy night in the NBA, with 13 games being played, so I figure this is a good time to make as many generalizations about the league as possible since I didn’t make a season preview.
The Sixers (4-4) went into New Jersey (0-8) to take on the Nets, who are really [...]
Talk Of 70 Plus Wins Pure Premature Speculation
By Alex
NBA Tipoff
The NBA season is now just 15 days away. It’s pre-season and while I love speculating about how teams will do, can’t we just show a little constraint and not mention the Bulls historic 72 win season (or 70 wins period)?
It’s not like I don’t want players to be confident, it’s just the [...]
Gallinari Set For Breakthrough Year With Knicks
By Alex
NBA Tipoff
Danilo Gallinari is going into an important sophomore season. The Rooster’s (his nickname, if you didn’t know) got to show New York that he’s got game enough to make things bearable for them this season. He’s got some talent and some tools and I’m eager to see how he does. Hopefully he’ll actually [...]
Birth Of Something More In L.A.?
By Alex
NBA Tipoff
The Lakers won their 15th NBA Title in franchise history, and it’s number four for Kobe Bryant and his first without the Diesel.
But you see that picture up there? He is holding four fingers up, isn’t he?
Well, now he is going to have to hold is thumb up next year, I bet, because [...]
Kobe Can Win Without Shaq
I’m going to go out on a Cirque du Soleil high wire act and assume the Los Angeles Lakers will win the NBA title. They’re up 3-1 on the Magic so why not?
Not that I care but if the Lakers do hold on, it will put an end to one of the most annoying feuds [...]
Clueless Sports Comments
-That didn’t take long. I was wondering how long before a sports writer would point out Roger Federer’s French Open victory (and 14th Grand Slam title) was over Robin Soderling and NOT Rafael Nadal. Read it this morning in a paper. Gee, and this is supposed to diminish the victory how exactly? How’s it Roger’s [...]
Lebron Misses The Point But Deserves Benefit Of Doubt
Someone I know is fond of saying “you can do nine great things but the minute you slip up once by making a mistake, people will remember that and forget everything else”.
There’s some truth to this. I kept reading about how Lebron James “gets it”. A superstar that is the new face of the NBA [...]
