Deep Thoughts with "Smiling" Sean Marks

Fri, 28 Aug 2009 10:18:00 -0500

I am so happy to have escaped the beautiful city of Toronto for the sweltering heat of Miami. For this, I happily dunk.I am quite obviously insane, yet still employed by an NBA team. Though clearly psychotic, I have a championship ring. For this, I giddily dunk. I have grown my hair out to appear more Nowitzki-ish. It looks pretty flowing. For this, I cheerfully dunk. I am fortunate to play with the previous best point guard in basketball, and now the current best point guard in basketball. T...

UPDATE: Your Wizards Big Man Free Agent Targets

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 16:17:27 -0500

UPDATE: Your Wizards Big Man Free Agent Targets Chris Wilcox, Sean Marks, Fabricio Oberto, Jamaal Magloire and Mikki Moore. Excited yet Wizards fans? I'd be 'content' with Marks or Oberto. Wilcox? Talented, but fairly questionable as a team player. I'll leave it to Grunfeld & Co. to judge if he's motivated -- he's still young (27 in September), so he should be. Mikki Moore. Heck no. He's been sort of our ideal free-agency Antichrist here on B...

Wed, 07 Nov 2007 17:11:51 -0500

The Phoenix Suns beat, well actually crushed, the Charlotte Bobcats 115-83 to improve their season record to 3-1. The Suns were always in control of this game as they outscored Charlotte in each quarter of the game. Phoenix played very good defense, especially in the first half holding the Bobcats scoreless for almost 5 minutes in the second quarter. Suns shot an excellent 50% (45-90) from the field while Charlotte had to settle for a not so good 36.6% (30-82). The good defensive effort is al...
