You noticed from the beginning of the Washington Wizards’ loss to the Indiana Pacers last night that the team had a different energy. Maybe its a biased departure from the electricity that ran through Verizon the other night, but this clearly is a different team without Gilbert Arenas in the lineup. And they clearly aren’t [...]

Yes folks, Gilbert Arenas (0.36) did return yesterday, scoring 15 points and dishing 10 assists against the Pistons. He was also 3-12 from the field, so the rust still needs to be shaken off his game. If you are one of the poor unlucky bastards who have been sitting on Arenas all year hoping for [...]

It was supposed to be a big night.  Gilbert Arenas’ surprise return 5 minutes into the 1st quarter.  He played pretty well for a guy who hasn’t been on the floor much in about a year.  But in the end, they suffer a last second defeat while 3 of their starters are writhing on the [...]

Kwame Brown made it back to D.C. over the weekend to take on his old team as a member of the Pistons. If you didn’t know Kwame as the unforgettable superbust of the decade, then you’d probably think he played for Washington in the early 50’s based on what he had to say to Steinz [...]

While I spent the weekend watching LeBron battle Wade and Kobe a lot of things happened around the NBA (and no, I'm not talking about off court items like ESPN helping someone promote a book that was published by, surprise surprise, ESPN). Here are some quick takes on four subjects: Commisioner Stern selects two All-Star injury replacements, Steve Nash is out of All-Star Weekend...

While the D'antoni era in New York is off to a vast improvement from the Lenny Wilkins-Larry Brown-Isiah Thomas era, the Knicks thus far are posting a 5-3 record and not all is peaceful in the Big Apple.
