As someone in the business of marketing, I got to give a hat tip to whoever is in charge of hyping up Eduardo Najera. That guy (or gal) deserves a huge raise. If you're like me and have watched the Nuggets a few times over the past couple weeks (they seem to be on national TV at least twice a week), you had to have noticed too. According to the commentators, Eddie is the most...

Eduardo Najera of the Charlotte Bobcats dove into the stands during Monday night’s game against the Utah Jazz. The woman he landed on seemed uninterested with the hustle player landing in her lap. Probably because Najera made her spill her $12 beer. Eduardo playfully pretended to drink from the empty beer cup and then motioned [...]

Eduardo Najera should know better. What in the hell is wrong with him? He has been in the NBA for a decade, and I am sure he has seen Josh Smith's work in the past. Either foul Crawford before he can make the pass, or get out of the poster. By trying to draw the charge on one of the highest flyers in the league, while he has a full head of steam is just foolish. He deserves...

I think by the end of the Charlotte Bobcats' season, if not a lot sooner, we'll think of Eduardo Najera as the player to be named later. (If you don't know that term, rent Bull Durham, the best sports movie...

Charlotte Bobcats forward Eduardo Najera missed morning shootaround with an illness. It's not a huge deal if he can't play tonight against the Miami Heat, but it would further narrow coach Paul Silas's options at power forward, with Tyrus Thomas...

Few energy players have profiles as large as that of Bobcats forward Eduardo Najera, the second Mexican-born player in NBA history and a popular endorser south of the border. On top of that fame, he's carved out a nice niche for himself as a do-anything energy guy willing to change teams as often as the vagaries of the collective bargaining agreement demand. Najera approaches...

Trying to take a charge on Josh Smith has never been a good idea.  Ask Steve Nash.   Apparently Eddy didn’t get the memo… or maybe he just doesn’t care anymore.  It’s hard to fault a guy for hustling, but this is one of those situations where there’s really nothing that can be done to prevent the inevitable… which in this case was Josh Smith...
