Player of the Week: Week 7

The Jazz’s schedule continued to get harder last week, and it showed as the team went an ugly 1-3. This is obviously the type of record that causes you to miss the playoffs, not make them. You could say the Jazz were a “team effort” away from a road win in New York and just one or two possessions away from coming back in Indiana, which would have put the Jazz at 3-1 on the...

Playground Basketball: Jazz at Warriors 02/02/2012

We've all seen it. Head on over to your local park, playground, outdoor basketball court, or recreational center and you'll witness it. Playground basketball. Where anything goes.

Fantasy News & Notes, Week Four

Well, I picked up a 5-4 win and moved to 18-17-1 (3-1) on the season, but I had a pretty disappointing week.  I led 8-1 going into Saturday’s games with just a single turnover keeping me from being up 9-0, but thanks to a missed game from Dirk Nowitzki and some awful freethrow shooting from Nene I was forced to bench players on Sunday in order to hold on to any sort of victory...
