TOP 11 POINT GUARDS OF ALL TIME: Well at least in my lifetime. This list is based off of what I have actually seen. Not what I have been told from uncles or past coaches or from the old heads in the barbershop. If I didn't see it, then I can't vouch for it. There is no denying the greatness of Oscar Robinson. And dude sure as hell doesn't need my random blog to validate...

It’s hard not to mention the Seattle Supersonics and not think of Gary Payton. Whether he was talking trash our scowling at opponents on his way to earning the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award in 1996, or throwing half court lob dunks to Shawn Kemp on the break, there’s no doubt “The Glove” and his No. 20 Sonics jersey would one day hang from the rafters in Key Arena...

This is an excerpt from an article I read in 2004. It talks about how Los Angeles Lakers free agents Gary Payton and Karl Malone have adjusted to the triple-post offense (triangle offense). "After spending his entire career with the ball in his hands, once Karl Malone was hurt and the Lakers stopped running, GP was reduced to being the fourth option on a team that didn...

Do you remember "Gary Payton Wireless"? The correct answer should be NO. I did a little Google research on "Gary Payton Wireless," and this is all I came up with. It is briefly mentioned during this Sports Illustrated article from 2002. There was a store that opened in a mall the same day as ...

Wow! These commercials are classic. Gary Payton was a rookie! Charles Barkley was skinny! I love finding this stuff on Ye Ole Youtube. I do not remember the Glove's commercial at all, but the Chucky commercial rings a bell

On today’s show (which is dated incorrectly again), Tas and I discuss where the Pacers rank after beating the league’s best teams, which conference is truly superior, how the Pistons are coming along and the state of Gary Payton’s collar.Subscribe to the audio show on iTunes | Download the ...

Classic commercial with a virtual rapping Glove, and more Sega characters than you can shake a stick at.

It's been a while since my last book review, Cane Mutiny, which followed the first review of the most excellent Boys Will Be Boys. Recently, LA Lakers head coach Phil Jackson has publicly stated that he is unsure of coming back next season to coach the Lakers. Jackson, 63, cites concerns of his own health as well as the team's success this year as major factors regarding...

We got an email from our friend BMan from Best Damn with a link to their podcast. This week's guest was Gary Payton, who is called him at around 4:14 mark. As BMan puts it, "He leads an interesting life."

Gary Payton has said he thinks he can help the Celtics. The Detroit game showed the Celtics weakness when Rondo is out of the game against teams that can press on defense. Payton may just be what the Celtics need.

Q: There should not be any surprise about Spoelstra finishing with Chalmers and Anthony after starting with Ilgauskas and Arroyo. It was the same in ‘06 with Gary Payton and Alonzo Mourning finishing the fourth quarters for their defense in place of Shaq and J-Will. Spoelstra’s just using the same Riley formula. — Moshe. A: Good point, with the Heat certainly looking...

WASHINGTON—Lost amongst the frantic onslaught of deals leading up to today’s NBA trade deadline was the news that retired superstar Gary Payton is now for some inexplicable reason a member of the Washington Wizards. While nobody quite knows when it happened or which team even had the right to trade him, the fact remains that the nine-time All Star who hasn’t played...

There are only two things to cure a Basketball Jones in Seattle this winter. I could stand out in the cold, in front of a boarded up KeyArena, wearing a Gary Payton throwback jersey and wax nostalgically about the 1996 playoff run to nobody in particular. Or I could adopt another city's team to follow throughout the season. Option No. 2 has a lower risk of hypothermia and...

(AP Photo/Alex Brandon) These Wizards/Cavaliers games are events that put me a couple of steps ahead of where I was before the day began. That’s nothing arrogant, for these games give me a sense of humility I would never get if I wasn’t there. Gilbert is back! Thank God for that. Pray for Abe please. Abe Polin not looking so good truly hurt, but that wasn’t the...

One-time Laker and NBA champion Gary Payton joined the T.Ocho Show to sound off on Kobe Bryant, Ron Artest and whether or not the Miami Heat can dethrone the Lakers. (Even though we all know that’s not happening!) Check out the clip after the break.

We've never really considered ourselves "Seattleites" despite spending the past six years in this cold, damp metropolis. But after a day like the city had yesterday, you sorta have to feel for them.Within a couple hours of each other, the opening arguments were made in the Seattle vs. Sonics trial (the team is like totally moving, but might be forced to play two lame...

Welcome back to the "Greatest Ever" series as i continued with the rankings of the greatest point guards in NBA History.A point guard is a player who usually runs the offense of the team, is the main ball handler and controls the tempo of the game. There's no strict definition actually about it.The position itself may be the most important, because these players make...

The "Seattle Post-Intelligencer" reported Monday that former Seattle SuperSonics point guard Gary Payton believes that the NBA will have a team back in the "Emerald City" by 2011. Payton also said that he had no desire for the Oklahoma City Thunder to retire his uniform number.

After watching Gary Payton and Jason Terry win championships, it is only natural for Jamal Crawford to be a little jealous. It is time for him to chase and hopefully capture that elusive championship ring. Here are the 3 teams most likely to sign him. 1.

Filed under: Warriors, Western, NBA Rumors, OaklandThe "Gary Payton to the Warriors" rumor first surfaced a couple of weeks ago, but since then it's more or less been dormant. That doesn't mean that it died on the vine, though, as Golden State of Mind points out how his name has been connected with t...

- I wonder where Gary Payton found his jump shot. He hasn't had one in about five years. He certainly didn't have one last year. I wish he could have found the fountain of youth or his miracle chiropractor one year earlier. - I wonder if referring to Kasey Keller as "the best goalkeeper in the world"...

Rap music and the NBA go together like OJ Simpson and Cutco Cutlery knives. Sometimes you just don?t want to believe it?s true, but you can?t stray away from the thought. Most of the time, hoops and rap mixed together is entertaining, unless you?re Percy Romeo Miller. But in Gary Payton?s case, it?s very entertaining, mostly [...]
