BDL mini-chat: 10 best big forwards of the last decade

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 13:30:00 -0500

Big and burly and fearsome and tough and effective. Elvin Hayes, power forwards, all that nonsense. In a way, it might be the easiest position out there. Hear me out. Sure, Dennis Rodman or Reggie Evans(notes) might be out there to do terrible things to your lower half, but you also don't have to guard centers, or chase around small forwards. You get to set screens on little guys, and get an open shot as a result. And if your team's 7-footer stinks, and most team's 7-footer doe...

by Matt WatsonFiled under: 76ers, Raptors, NBA TransactionsSure, the NBA Finals aren't even halfway over (or are they?

Raptors prez and GM Bryan Colangelo announced the move this afternoon. From Doug Smith of t...

Reggie Evans Traded for Jason Kapono

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 16:40:22 -0500

The Sixers have coveted a long range sharp shooter ever since they traded away Kyle Korver. This is a roster of hustle players and athletes whose defense creates fast break opportunities because of an inability to score consistently in the half court. Well today Sixers fans got their wish as Jason Kapono comes to town with a green light in tow. He’ll be great spotting up for threes in transition and off secondary breaks. Problem is, Reggie Evans unfortunately was on the other end of the trade. Reggie Evans came in with Andre Miller as part of the Iverson trade and is infinite hustle. Great teammate who was one of the few professional athletes who paid visits to the opposing team’s locker room after games because he was one of the most liked players in the league. I’ll miss dude’s enthusiasm in the locker room as well. He is the epitome of what a cult figure should be. They’ll love Reggie in Toronto. This past season, he worked on his free throws but had his minutes cut with the emergence of Mareese Speights. Mos def will miss Reggie for stuff like this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ea62dx3uBco&feature Send to Facebook

To that end, the first big move of the off-season has been made: lunchpailin' power forward Reggie Evans to the Toronto Raptors in retur...

Sixers Forget How to Play D, Fall to Suns

Thu, 19 Mar 2009 13:11:09 -0500

Our man Saul Zebovitz gives us his thoughts on last night's loss.Let me begin by just saying that last night was an awful, awful game that Sixers could have and should have won... but played like they wanted to lose. And lose they did. The biggest problem in this game was that no one played defense. We all came into the game knowing that the Suns don't play D, but I expected the Sixers to be able to run just as well as Phoenix, but als...

Reggie Evans Isn't Getting Traded...Yet

Sun, 19 Aug 2007 04:14:31 -0500

The Nuggets have no use for Reggie Evans. At least as long as K-Mart returns from injury like he's supposed to. Reggie has skills -- he's one of the leagues best rebounders -- and it make sense to trade him rather than let him rot on the bench. But why trade him right away? His value is only going to increase as the new season progresses, and as long as he's on the Nuggets bench he's insurance in case Nene, Camby, or K-Mart get hurt (which is almost guaranteed). Evans will get traded, but not until the last possible moment.
