Last month, Adidas made basketball fans everywhere do a double take with a “What the what?” added for good measure, when it was announced that the Golden State Warriors would be wearing new alternate jerseys with sleeves. An act of outright blasphemy, with approval from only Darren Rovell, the jerseys were largely panned well before they even made their debut last week.I did, however, argue that they might look kind of cool for the average fan to wear, because there’s really not much worse than a grown adult wearing a tank top in public. As our friend Trey Kerby at The Basketball Jones was able to investigate himself – because Adidas sends him free stuff, and yet my mailbox is empty – they do look all right if you get past the absurd length.And this is important, why? Because Adidas is bringing the sleeves to the NCAA Tournament.According to the Sporting News, eight teams that are sponsored by Adidas will be wearing special short-sleeved, camouflage-styled jerseys for the NCAA Tourn...

Mychal Thompson knows a thing or two about the trappings of being an NBA player, and the former No. 1 overall pick and two-time NBA champion is instilling those lessons on his son, Warrior shooting guard Klay Thompson. As it turns out, the elder Thompson (and his wife, Julie) control Klay’s finances — game checks are sent to them, and Klay is given a weekly allowance. Thus, after...
Harrison Barnes is interesting, should also play more
We all have favorite rookies each year, aside from the number one guys. My guy this year is Golden State Warriors forward Harrison Barnes.
Maybe it is because I think scouts were a little too rough on him throughout the draft process. Or maybe it is because he reminds me of Sean Elliott and Glen Rice, two of my favorite wings of the 1990's.
Or maybe it is because...
