Byron Scott hates playing youngsters, and he’s in desperate trouble. If this team of his doesn’t start winning soon, he’ll be working the playoffs from a desk at ESPN.
Stephen Jackson would rather be anywhere but Golden State, and his play is showing it. Whatever...

If you haven’t already seen it, check out my 2009-2010 NBA Season Predictions for the Eastern Conference.

Here it is – my attempt at predicting the future. Last season I was too busy to write a post, but not this year.

There aren’t any major trades. Obviously this will change, but when it does the rankings...

I’ve spent some time the last couple of days trying to figure out how the Jazz can trade Boozer for anyone or anything of substantial value, and I have to admit I’m stymied. Unless OKC decides to help facilitate a trade (which seems unlikely considering neither team is...

Denver Needs To Call Milwaukee ASAP About Kurt Thomas

If you watched the playoffs back in May and June, you can see that the Denver Nuggets need depth at the center position. While there’s been talk of working a deal for Jeff Foster (and I like that possibility), I think Kurt Thomas represents an excellent opportunity to grab a...

Anthony Carter is going to get the blame, but the Nuggets lost this game in the last 3 minutes. They simply don’t have the experience in close games. A silly reach in foul, one poor rotation, and one bad possession is all it takes to lose in a game like this.
Denver’s disadvantage...

Here’s what the Lakers-Nuggets 2008-2009 Western Conference Finals are going to look like:
Point Guards - Billups and Carter vs. Fisher, Farmar, and Brown. There’s an awful lot to like about L.A.’s trio of point guards. Brown is lightening quick, Farmar is a talented...

Linas Kleiza should be relishing this time - it’s exciting to be competing in the playoffs, especially when your team looks like it can make it all the way to the Conference Finals. Playing with Chauncey and K-Mart in their primes, with a surging Nene, a strong Melo, and a surprisingly...

All the talking heads and analysts have already said the Nuggets win the series, and I think that’s likely as well. Denver simply has too much to overcome the Mavs:
Billups vs. Kidd - This will come down to Billups being able to score in transition. Kidd is slow, and if he&...

A report on Yahoo Sports today says that the Phoenix Suns are considering moving Amar’e Stoudemire. Rumors abound that Amar’e is dissatisfied with his new coach, his reduced offensive role, and the fact that people keep asking him to play defense. This shouldn’t come...

On the basketball court, the Pistons have a lot to look forward to. When the team figures out how to fully integrate A.I. into the offense and adjusts to the loss of Billups, there's no doubt they'll be a huge challenge for Cleveland and/or Boston. Good stuff.

Where Is Kaman Going To Land After Clipper-Land?

The Clippers have too many big men, and they need a solid wingman. Since neither Camby or Kaman won't accept coming off the bench anyways, it only makes sense to move one of them for a shooting guard or small foward. The consensus is that Kaman is moved - so where could he go?

Gerald Wallace is on the trading block. The rationale? Jared Dudley and Adam Morrison are capable players who are stuck behind Wallace, and Michael Jordan and Larry Brown believe they can make up for a loss of Wallace with the pieces they have. MJ and LB want a big man to pair with...

Antonio McDyess was included in the recent Allen Iverson - Chauncy Billups trade, and the trouble is he doesn't want to play in Denver. Evidently, McDyess is still upset about the way he was treated in 2002 when Denver traded him away to the Knicks. Denver has tried to pursue a...

With the western conference stronger than ever, it seems that San Antonio isn't going to get many more chances at competing for a championship. This year might be it, and Ginobili's recent injury has substantially endangered their chances. While the safe move for the Spurs...
Denver Might Be Better Without Camby

It's tantamount to heresy to say this in the Mile High city, but the Nuggets might actually be a better basketball team without Marcus Camby. Here's why:
1) Camby's shot selection. As much as I loved watching Camby put the ball over his shoulder and taking a 25 footer,...
