OK-Who?

For acts of rampant douchebaggery and ignorance perpetuated by the Oklahoma City media last season against the city of New Orleans, And in consideration for me having to look at that generic H logo from OKC last season after the Hornets came back, when the Fleur de Bee was 100 times cooler, And in solidarity with our [...]

Trailblazers @ Kings, 7:00pm CSN

BLAZERSKINGSEDGECOMMENTWhen Mike Bibby was traded to Atlanta last year it opened the door for Beno Udrih. Udrih hasn't been spectacular this year but he is a slightly better scorer than Blake. Beno is also a bit bigger and physically has an advantage. Blake's efficiency continues to get him ...

Not Content to Only Play the Second Half of Games, the Hornets Decided to Switch It Up…

Clearly there is nothing to hype. After the defense was so horrific in the 4th quarter that the team went down by 8 to the Sacramento Kings' backups, I performed the unspeakably douchey act of folding down the BELIEVES part on our THE BACK ROW BELIEVES banner. So that pretty much sums it up.

A look at the Top 3 clutch scorers in the NBA

Despite J.A. Adande's comparisons of the 2008-09 Los Angeles Lakers and 1993-94 Houston Rockets, I like the Boston Celtics' chances of repeating as NBA champions : The Celtics have picked up right where they left off, and despite losing James Posey in the off-season, their role player corps is more than championship caliber, especially having gone through the winning experience....
