Say what you will about Chicago Bulls GM John Paxson and his recent coaching hire, but I think ol' Johnny got it right. Why pay top dollar when coaches don't matter very much anyways?
While one could argue there are a few top notch coaches that could make ANY NBA team good...

Here's a short list of teams that should try and trade for Allen Iverson:
Cleveland Cavaliers - Lebron and Iverson would work SO much better than Melo and Iverson. Lebron is a better leader, a better passer, and a better 3pt shooter than Carmelo, and his basketball IQ is high...

Denver's got to make a change, and aside from removing George Karl, it's time to declare the A.I. - Melo experiment a failure. Since moving Melo would be just plain stupid, Allen Iverson must go.

1. The Celtics bench is good enough to make a run. Not great, but good enough now that they have some confident younger players, PJ Brown, and most importantly Sam Cassell.
2. Rondo is still the weakest Celtics starter, but as long as Sam Cassell can come off the bench it won'...

Here's what went wrong:
1. Bad defensive habits. The Nuggets played defense this year about half the time. Their lack of focus was the reason they were swept in the first round.
2. Melo's lack of maturity. Calling out your teammates after a bad loss and getting a DUI...

Mike Bibby is right - most NBA fans are "band wagoners". I'll take it a step further - most NBA fans suck (except for LA and NY fans).
Most fans don't know how the game is played...They're drunk...They think they're important to the game's outcome...They...

I’m a baaaad Nuggets fan. I don’t focus on the things they do well - transition offense, creating turnovers, their ever-improving inside-out game, their ability to play through injuries, or the fact that on any given night they can beat any team in the NBA. Instead, I focus...

Their defense is poor, they don't run enough, they take a lot of bad jumpers, and it all adds up to one thing - LAZINESS. It will take missing the playoffs for the Nuggets to realize how they need to improve.

Discussion of Sam Cassell's buyout demands in the face of his desire to quit his team. Sam's leaving the Clippers because they're not very good, yet he expects payment to do so. What gives?

Sam Cassell says that because he's made the Clippers "respectable," he deserves to get paid money for work he's never going to do. I want Sam to leave the Clippers as much as the next guy, but where does Sam get off expecting payment to quit his team?

Phoenix keeps winning games, but something is different this year. Nash and Amare look great, and Grant Hill looks better than he has in 10 years, but something is still wrong. They’re not the team they were last year.
Part of the problem might be the "been there, done that...

Now that the Memphis Grizzlies have shipped out Pau Gasol for a rookie, an expiring contract, and two draft picks, it’s pretty clear that Memphis is all about dumping salary…which brings us to Mike Miller.
Over-sized, over-paid and under-publicized, Mike Miller is a league...

If you watched Dallas in last year’s playoffs, you know they needed a post player - bad. Dampier (who wasn’t available when Dallas was upset last year by Golden State) is really the Mav’s best post option right now, but he’s still coming back from injury…...

Will Memphis ship out Mike Miller this season?
Is so, will it be for Jason Williams and a draft pick, or will they combine Miller with Brown's expiring contract, Kyle Lowry, and a first round pick or two and MAKE A MOVE FOR JASON KIDD?
Probably not, buy you can't deny...

With the Nuggets Nene out for at least the next 6 weeks, it might be time to consider making a trade. It’s no secret that Denver shopped Marcus Camby during the off-season, hoping to find a younger player that could replace Camby and also get Denver out of the luxury tax. Denver...

I’m putting my basketball analysis cred on the line and boldly predicting how the eastern conference playoff picture will look in about 6 months. While I’m nearly 100% confident in my picks for the west, I’m not entirely sure about any of these teams. With the exception...

Almost two months ago, I said that the Nuggets weren’t a championship squad. I said they’re biggest failings were terrible defense and a lack of three point shooting. Here we are five games into the season, and here’s what I can tell you about Denver:

Trade Kidd to the Knicks for Crawford and Randolph.
NY gets a real leader in Kidd and a good excuse to buyout Marbury. NY also saves $45 million.
NJ gets a reliable 3pt shooter and a legit post presence.
Of course, this trade will never happen because Isiah is an idiot, Dolan...

OK — first, let me say this is a totally unsubstantiated conspiracy theory and that it has very little basis in fact.
But considering how smart Riley is, and his predisposition to Machiavellian behavior, it seems likely that he would interfere in a conference rival’s free...

Minnesota doesn’t need Marko Jaric (but Adriana Lima does). His contract is expensive ($25 million left including this season). By the time the rest of the T-wolves hit their stride, Jaric (currently 29) is going to be too old to be of any use. Finally, Jaric’s not really...
