JaVale McGee perfect at getting back on defense
Well would you look at this. Here we have a center sprinting back on defense. Nothing wrong with this picture, in fact this is actually encouraged. Don't you think the Warriors would love Kwame Brown to show this kind of determination and hustle? Anyways, I can't hate on this, he is just getting back on defense since JaVale knows he didn't get the rebound, so the...

Kwame Brown Deal Proves NBA Owners Have Learned Nothing
Remember last week when NBA owners pressured commissioner David Stern into blocking a deal that would have sent Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Lakers because moves like that were why those very same owners had locked out the players in the first place?

The Kwame Brown Signing: Ambition & Failure
Oscar Wilde once wrote that “ambition is the last refuge of failure.” The Warriors’ abbreviated off-season kicked off with plenty of ambition, but there’s no masking that its likely conclusion — the signing of Kwame Brown — is a failure. Brown undoubtedly will help the team at the margin. But in the big picture, he’s [...]

Kwame Brown, Warriors agree to deal
Free agent center Kwame Brown has agreed to terms on a one-year, $7 million contract with the Golden State Warriors.
Agent Mark Bartelstein says the offer in Golden State was ''too good to pass up.''
The loss of Brown leaves the Bobcats with a hole at center. Gana Diop, who is coming off a torn Achilles tendon, is the only center on the Bobcats roster.

With Andrew Bynum beginning to emerge as an elite center in the NBA this season, it’s hard to exactly pin the person who is most deserving of credit for Bynum’s transformation from perennial injury concern to bonafide all-star.

I hate what all these advanced statistics have done to the NBA fan/analyst.

This morning, I got in a brief, surprising Twitter argument with a writer from Sports Illustrated, who tweeted...
