What If ... The Portland Trailblazers Drafted Kevin Durant

The Portland Trailblazers are looking pretty good right now...even with a gimpy Brandon Roy coming off the bench.   If only the Blazers had taken Kevin Durant instead of Greg Oden.   What could have been...

This Shawn Kemp Kid Has Both Adonis DNA & Tiger Blood

How do I jam like Blake Griffin? How am I currently winning all three of my fantasy basketball leagues? Easy. I possess Adonis DNA and have tiger blood coursing through my veins just like Chuck Sheen. I could go on and on about Sheen's antics during the past few weeks but instead I'll just direct you to this link with a lot of his best quotes. Enjoy.

Video Of The Week: The SDSG Has Mad Hops & Only Blake Griffin Is A Better Dunker

Your eyes are not deceiving you. That really is a short white guy dunking in the video. I may only be 5'11" ... but I can absolutely sky. Thanks for passing the jumping gene on to me Pops. You're the best! P.S. Jacob Tucker? Never heard of him...

Shawn Kemp Not Impressed By Blake Griffin's Kia Dunk & A Few Other Random Thoughts

Sorry pops, but this dunk seems pretty damn impressive to me. Although the Blakers...er...Clippers are an afterthought once again this season, Griffin continues to put on quite a show every night. While Shawn Kemp admits to being a Blake fan, he thought the Kia dunk was the weakest in the entire contest. Dad went on to say during the interview that he could still dunk over a couple...

NBA Trade Deadline Deals: Melo, Deron Williams & More

One of my favorite times of the year is now upon us. Yes, it's NBA trade deadline week and blockbuster deals are dominating the sports headlines. While the flames from the Carmelo Anthony deal are still smoldering on the East coast, the New Jersey Nets just added one of the premier point guards in the league in Deron Williams. The move was both bold and brilliant. Unlike...

Vincent Jackson Hit With Franchise Tag But Will There Be An NFL Season?

It appears that the collective bargaining agreement between the NFL and the NFL Players Association is going to expire on March 3rd. No further meetings between the two parties appear to be on the schedule and the NFL has even filed an unfair labor practice charge against the players union with the National Labor Relations Board. At the moment, signs are pointing toward...

Utah Jazz Head Coach Jerry Sloan Says See Ya

Jerry Sloan is no longer coaching the Utah Jazz. Repeated clashes with star point guard Deron Williams have caused the longest tenured head coach in professional sports to inform Jazz management that he's taking his ball and going home. Truth be told, I'm really not all that surprised. Despite being at the helm in Utah for more than 20 years, Sloan has won as many NBA championships...

Brooklyn Decker Hits The Silver Screen In Just Go With It

In movie news it should be noted that my ex-wife Brooklyn Decker is co-starring with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston in a film called "Just Go With It." It's Brooklyn's movie debut and I couldn't be happier for her. Evidently, this yellow bikini makes an early appearance and that alone should be enough to shell out $11 to see it.

Best Of The Boob Tube: Karl Pilkington Is An Idiot Abroad

"An Idiot Abroad" is my new favorite television show and the above clip is the Video Of The Week. If you haven't seen (or heard of) the show I can't recommend it strongly enough. Sit down, relax and prepare to laugh your ass off.

Happy MLK Day - I Have A Dream ... And Halle Berry Is In It

Are you kidding me? In case you missed the Golden Globes last night Halle Berry looked absolutely spectacular. The word spectacular also describes the performance of host Ricky Gervais. My man Ricky was on fire and there is about a 1% chance he will ever host the show again. There is no way the hypersensitive Hollywood A-list actors will allow it. "The SDSG is my favorite...

Screen Grab, Picture Or Video Of The Week

It's now time for a new weekly feature on SKK that you are simply not going to want to miss. Every Friday I'm going to pick a picture, video or screen grab that tickled my funny bone during the week. As far as the inaugural winner is concerned it's absolutely no contest. This image for lack of a better word is AWESOME. Evidently, it appeared on NBA TV when little...

Political Correctness Be Damned; Tom Brady Is An Asshole

If Antonio Cromartie thinks Patriots quarterback/golden boy is an asshole then what's wrong with saying it? Likewise, if head coach Rex Ryan wants to call out Peyton Manning or Bill Belichick before a game I happen to think it's great. Political correctness and spouting cliche after cliche unfortunately has become the norm in sports these days. However, perhaps the tide...

What's On My Mind Today: NBA Hoops & My Guys

The NBA may play second fiddle to the NFL in this country but not as far as I'm concerned. I'm an NBA junkie and can't get enough of it...even with all of its many foibles. Loyal readers of this blog know that from time to time I enjoy writing about a running list of NBA players I affectionately call My Guys. Here is my current 12-man roster of players I really like...

What's On My Mind Today: New Year's Resolutions, NFL Coaches, Brett Favre, Hank Kingsley & More

For the good of the country let's hope it is really over for #4 this time. Is this the hit that did it? Probably so and I could watch it another 100 times without getting bored.As far as New Year's sports resolutions are concerned the permanent retirement of Brett Favre would have to be at the top of the list. The dismissal of San Diego head coach Norv Turner would probably...

Could Vincent Jackson Lead The San Diego Chargers To The Super Bowl?

With apologies to Larry Fitzgerald, the most physically gifted wide receiver in football might just be Vincent Jackson of the San Diego Chargers. Yesterday afternoon Jackson actually played a significant role for the first time this season as the Bolts blitzed the Kansas City Chiefs 31-0. Truth be told, the game wasn't even that close. Kansas City gained a grand total of 67...

Lt. Frank Drebin: "Cheer up, Ed. This is not goodbye. It's just I won't ever see you again."The face of "Police Squad" and the "Naked Gun" movies will be greatly missed. It's not goodbye though. We just won't see Leslie again. How about the Chiefs and Chargers road wins yesterday? Talk about a couple of beat downs. As mentioned...

Top 15 Overexposed People & Things

Enough is enough. I've reached my breaking point. For some reason certain people and things get way too much hype, publicity and coverage. Here are fifteen off the top of my head:1.

SPOIL THE BROTH

Can NBA teams have too many good players?

Yes. The Houston Rockets and Milwaukee Bucks are two prime examples. A third example would be the Orlando Magic and its a primary reason Dwight Howard will not be winning a ring in the near future. Magic GM Otis Smith's formula for success has been to stock his team with 12 guys deserving of at least twenty minutes of playing time each game. The math simply doesn't work...
