Hornets Training Camp 2007, 20 Suicides in 20 Minutes

Found this great clip from earlier in the NBA season with a behind the scenes look at the New Orleans Hornets Training Camp from last season. One of the great things about watching NBA practices is how individually focused they are. Each player is broken down and analyzed and practices...

Spoke too soon. Skip sits. CP3, too.

California King

by Tim David Harvey When franchise players can’t get it done this is when valuable bench players get the chance to earn their bread and butter. Every championship team needs a Robert Horry or a Toni Kukoc. As a season wears on successful teams need to be running on all cylinders...

How would Artest vs. Battier go down in the Octagon?

Ron-artest-street-clothes
In getting Ron Artest from the Sacramento Kings, the Houston Rockets have gotten a supremely talented player who is capable of being a lockdown defender and versatile offensive weapon. Great, but the Houston Rockets also have starting small forward Shane Battier, who is a great defender...

Trailblazers @ Kings, 7:00pm CSN

BLAZERSKINGS EDGECOMMENTWhen 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...

Did We Offer Anything for Artest?

Artestcavs
The past few months have been full of lamenting over what the Cavaliers should and could do with their off-season. We knew from the get-go that we wouldn't have much of a play in the free agent market. You know, because of that crazy salary cap thing. And while we saw a few teams...

It's a Sprint to the Finish: Guards Who Can Help You Out

Nate Robinson (ranked #44 on the year/#5 over the last 10 games) ? Besides tagging Dwight Howard with his balls in the dunk contest, the second best thing that Robinson has done this month is become a scoring machine, with games of 29, 32, 41, 26, and 32 points since the break.

2008 NBA Preview: #6 Houston Rockets

Offseason Movement: The team acquired Ron Artest from the Kings in exchange for Bobby Jackson and draftee Donte Greene. Trading for Artest is a risky move, but one that the Rockets pretty much had to take. The window is closing on the Tracy McGrady/Yao Ming combination and the team...

As Hurricane Gustav Touches Down, A Remembrance of Hurricane Katrina

It Sounds Good on Paper

Bringing Ron Artest into Houston certainly sounds like a good decision in basketball terms. The Rockets gave up Bobby Jackson (2008 version not the 2002 version), Donte Green and their 2009 draft pick (which will certainly be in the high teens if not the 20s). In return they receive...

Why you should put $ on Houston to win the West

Rockets_new
The 7 faces that you see below are quite accomplished basketball players. You may notice that their NBA mugshots form the 9th letter, as in Me, Myself, and I. I suppose this is fitting for Tracy McGrady, because the 5th year Rocket has long been considered a selfish player. How...
