Do You Remember...Skybox 1992 Trading Cards? [Video]  

First up today, we have a commercial for Skybox NBA Series 2 Trading Cards. This was back in the day when trading cards were about to hit their peak of popularity -- when everyone was selling their big brother's baseball jacket to buy packets. Where did they fall in popularity? Somewhere between MJ's first retirement and Shawn Kemp becoming a blimp, I'd say.

NBA 2K9 vs NBA Live 09 : Interview with SportsVideoGames.net  

NBA 2K9 or NBA Live 09... which one should you buy? I was lucky enough to get some time with someone who studies this stuff every day to get a good read on the pros and cons of both of these titles. Has EA Sports stepped up to the plate this year? Read on to find out...

DNP - Too Old... Too Fat... Too...?  

A discussion in the Hoops Hype Forums got me thinking. Someone erroneously remembered the incident where a Yahoo! Sports boxscore writer decided to have a little bit of fun and described Robert Horry's reason for not playing as DNP - too fat.

So yes, this got the finely tuned wheels turning in my head on what other little party tricks the boxscore henchmen could throw in there to make us laugh. As an NBA fan there are almost too many jokes that could be made from this perspective, so I'm going to throw a few out there and leave it to you the reader to come up with some more in the comments below, or via the A Stern Warning Forums.

Those boys have dope game : Mario and Darrell  

This past offseason saw a big focus on Mario Chalmers and Darrell Arthur for all of the wrong reasons. Enter game one of the regular season and both of them have massive debut performances to take people's minds off that little incident...

Bynum and Farmar can read women's minds (and fight Chuck Norris)  

What women want. Andrew Bynum knows it. Jordan Farmar knows it. Now you too can know the secret, for just 10 instalments of $39.95 + p&p.

Well, perhaps the last part isn't totally correct. However, both Bynum and Farmar said in a recent interview that they know what women are thinking and there are a lot of men out there who would too like to know the secret. Do they teach this in the NBA rookie program? Perhaps that was the study course that Mario Chalmers and Darrell Arthur were brushing up on?

Eddie Jones : bought out by Pacers

It appears that Eddie Jones has played his last game in the NBA after a solid if not spectacular career. This is a look back at his career, including videos (serious and not-so-serious).

NBA 2K9 : Major Glitch

This video shows a very disappointing glitch in the newly released NBA 2K9 video game.

Sergio Rodriguez : The Forgotten Blazer  

There is a lot of excitement surrounding more famous Blazers in the early stages of 2008/09, leaving Sergio Rodriguez as the player who may make the most unexpected contribution in Portland as the season gets under way.

NBA 2009 Season Warmup (Video)

What better way to warm up for the NBA season than watching this?

Shawn Kemp Reebok Kamikaze Video  

Since people are saying nasty things about Shawn Kemp again, after things didn't turn out as planned for him in Italy, I always find it soothing to go back to some old school footage of the Reign Man and remember how things were when all was right in the world. This is the old Reebok Kamikaze commercial starring Shawn versus some strange robot...
