Posted Tuesday May 27, 2008, About: What drives Kobe in his quest for title No. 4

His drive to win is remarkable. Just reading those stories makes me respect him even more as a basketball player and as a competitor.

Posted Sunday May 25, 2008, About: Soccer as N.B.A. Building Block

Pretty cool. However, there are just as many NBA players who have never played soccer in their entire life.

Dumb move, Jameer...

Posted Sunday May 11, 2008, About: Spurs/Hornets Game 4 Matchup: Parker vs. Paul

A matchup between two top five point guards in the League is always great, but even better with these two.

Posted Sunday January 06, 2008, About: Hornets Love Being Road Warriors

The Suns are 0-2 against the Hornets this season. New Orleans won that game at the end of a road stretch. I think that they'll be tough to beat come playoff time.

Posted Wednesday December 26, 2007, About: No. 2 Memphis Uses Second Half Run to Pull Away from No. 5 Georgetown, 85-71

That was a great game. It could have been the best we've seen this season from such highly-touted teams.

Posted Saturday December 22, 2007, About: College-Basketball Notebook: Wooden would like changes in game

Do I agree with this? It's hard to tell. Yes, calling the rules more closely would change the game, but what about all these players in the NBA like Allen Iverson who have made a living off carrying the ball to get by a defender for a layup. What happens to the Dunk Contest? All of this only hurts the money that the game of basketball is bringing in. Should it happen? Possibly. Will it happen? Heck no!

Posted Thursday September 13, 2007, About: Top draft pick Greg Oden likely to miss rookie season with Trail Blazers

Injury prone. Not good. Also, this puts the Blazers from about 8-12 in the Conference to 11-15.

Posted Monday August 27, 2007, About: Bryant helps U.S. advance

Wow. He is the best player in the world, no doubt.

Posted Monday August 27, 2007, About: Dream Team gives Brazil nightmares

Dream Team? Little early for that.

Posted Friday July 27, 2007, About: Nash comes home for charity game

This is the year the Suns go all the way. But it sounds like he's planning on retiring after his 3 years are up. And the charity game he does is great. I love watching the stuff about it on NBA TV.

Posted Friday July 27, 2007, About: Suns' Raja Bell has arthroscopic knee surgery

So I guess this means he isn't playing for the US Virgin Islands in the FIBA Americas?

Posted Friday July 13, 2007, About: Knicks Hold Off Kings Rally, Improve to 3-0

Maybe this is an indication of good things to come for New York.

Posted Friday July 13, 2007, About: Struggling through summer

Interesting story. I think it was a good idea to let an international team into the Summer League.

Posted Monday July 02, 2007, About: Marbury happy to defer more

I'll believe it when I see it. I can't imagine him not wanting to be the head man again.

Posted Monday July 02, 2007, About: Rockets wait as free agent forward Lewis weighs options

He should stay with the Sonics.

Posted Wednesday June 13, 2007, About: Spurs close in on sweep

Nice try LeBrick. Maybe next year...no, nevermind, next year the Bulls will win the East.
