Giddens Sparks 4th Quarter Rally

Wed, 01 Apr 2009 09:01:11 -0500

Without a Celtics game on to watch, I tuned into Futurecast on NBA.com and watched the Flash game against the Bakersfield Jam. At the half, it looked like the Jam was going to run away with the game as they were playing with a lot more energy than the Flash. Giddens didn't look all that great in the game either. But, in the second half, it was a different story and Celtics assignee JR Giddens sparked a 4th quarter rally that gave the Utah Flash a 108-92 win over the Bakersfield Jam. Utah...

Thad Matta is not well-liked

"Listen, if you can't get along with a kid like Kosta, then you're clueless," Greynolds said. "If you're making $2 million season and can't figure out how to use a 7-foot-1 kid, you're clueless. If you can't get along with a kid who comes early, stays late and gets good grades, you're clueless, and you've got the problem."

Stay In Denver, Melo! | The Draft Is All The Nets Need

Mon, 02 Jun 2008 14:44:23 -0500

As the teams in the Atlantic Division have shown against the Nets this year, they are a soft, lazy, and at times emotionless team that needs that spark to get them going at the end of games. Carmelo Anthony is not that guy and never will be. Bill Walker and Kosta Koufos may not be the most attractive names, but they are the players who will bring the Nets to that next level in the years to come and make Sean "Jay-Z" Carter, a very happy man.

Shabbat Shalom: Friday Wrap-Up

If you missed my interview with Leigh Steinberg, I suggest you check it out. I am no longer a 1L! For those of you non-legal people, that means that I made it through the toughest year of law school. Hopefully, it will be all smooth sailing from here. I am back home in South Florida, where I will be working on Dynasty for the rest of this summer (minus a short trip to Israel from May 11-21). Picking the next two Dynasty interns is going to be close to impossible, but I am going to give it my best. Also, keep lookout for a HUGE change to the look of this site. I am working on a complete switch over to a new design, but it will take a while (expect it sometime at the end of May). Anyway, here are some stories I missed over the past week: * I think it's safe to say that basketball agent, Jeff Schwartz, is no longer invited to dinner at Lute Olson's house [Blame agents and everyone else]. * Chances are you have never heard of this guy, but he just became the third highest paid offensive tackle in the NFL [Roos Gets $43 Million Extension From Titans]. * He must be a true sportsman, he's the only player to win the award twice [Suns' Hill Wins 2007-08 NBA Sportsmanship Award]. * The ladies are looking for some top notch endorsements too [Payback time for Danica Patrick and women's sports?]. * The 11th annual University of Kentucky Sports Marketing Academy is right around the corner. Too bad you can't buy a ticket to it [Sports Marketing Academy Begins Second Decade]. * Taj Gibson stays, Davon Jefferson goes

Outside the State of Indiana, the names and talents of Robbie Hummel and E'Twaun Moore were not particularly well-known at the season's inception. It was the darlings of Major Media, IU's Eric Gordon and Thad Matta's next great recruiting class led by Kosta Koufos and John Diebler, who received the acclaim rather than Matt Painter's Indiana bred freshman four.
