Posted Sunday June 14, 2009, About: Shaq-to-Cavs rumors heating up

It's no secret they need a big guy who can score.

Big Baby?

Posted Tuesday March 24, 2009, About: Oden hears Sam Bowie comparisons

The guy is good for 7 points and 9 boards a game. For a role player on a team with two potential superstars (Roy and Aldridge), I see no problem with his talent.

The Yoga would probably help, though.

Posted Friday January 16, 2009, About: NCAA: 7th graders now prospects

The idea is to curb the trend. Obviously, the NCAA does not approve of the recruitment of grade-schoolers, but you can't stop the trend right now. In order to counter act the private camps, the NCAA will now run it's own 7th-8th grade camps, where they will have a significant amount of control over how much recruitment is actually done.

This is easily going to be the best story of 2009. Good luck Chuck!

Posted Monday May 12, 2008, About: Lakers sore at Kobe's OT shooting

Bruised back or not, there is no excuse for shooting like that in OT.

The Lakers second-to-last regular season loss was to the Grizzlies; Kobe scored 53 on 19 for 37 shooting while getting 1 assist. I think it's time this good ol' MVP wised up and realized that you can't win games alone. He still has Odom (Gasol was out) and a solid bench, and playing the Grizzlies should have been a rather easy win. Now it's playoff time, and if the Lakers want to turn it around, Kobe is going to have to get everyone involved.

ALthough, I'd have no problem if they didn't. GO JA ZZ!

Posted Sunday October 14, 2007, About: Kobe to Bulls, Mavs or Suns?

He won't get traded. He asks for a lot of money and the only way a team could afford him would be to trade off one of their own superstars, and if you have one superstar, why would you trade him for a selfish baby unless you're giving upa selfish baby in return.
