The Felling of the Phoenix: What We Have Learned
The Felling of the Phoenix: What We Have Learned

phdribble phdribble posted 5/9/2008 from phdribble.typepad.com

Out of all the reasons for the Suns' demise, the loudest has been the least convincing. From Sir Chuck to DCollins, Lig elders have closed ranks to condemn D'Antoni's system. Fire up the torches. I smell a witchhunt!

phdribble phdribble posted 4/30/2008 from phdribble.typepad.com

When watching the Hawks and the Sixers, it is hard to resist a comparison to the Baby Bulls. And when making such a comparison, it leads to the question: will these teams continue to grow into title contenders or will they peak and disintegrate like their Chicago brethren?

There remains an unwritten rule in the Lig. It is a rule so taken for granted that its insidious nature is rarely discussed. It is common sense: you start your five best players (at each position.) And yet. And yet... Imagine the possibilities.

The Jordan Blame
The Jordan Blame

phdribble phdribble posted 3/7/2008 from phdribble.typepad.com

Eighteen years later the debate over inner-city poverty and crime has shifted. The likes of Cosby, Kenny and Chuck, Whitlock, and Obama have called for self-examination on the question of, as ESPN puts it, "hip hop's swaggering materialism." But somehow, Michael Jordan's name never surfaces in the debate...

Long and far we have searched for its quixotic charms, its elusive impermeability. And, as Need4Sheed would rock it, its Amirzing. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I believe the SKY-HOOK IS BACK...

The King is Dead; Long Live the King

phdribble phdribble posted 2/19/2008 from phdribble.typepad.com

When Jordan's heir was to be revealed, we were impatient, impetuous. We saw hope in every Miner. We tried to climb a Hill, save a Penny, catch Vinsanity, and double-down on a Stackhouse. We pushed young Tracy forth, only to skewer him when we were wrong. Desperate, we even tried to saddle a young Rider no matter how violently he bucked...

SAS Makes More News

phdribble phdribble posted 1/5/2008 from phdribble.typepad.com

In the ESPN post-game show after the Pistons-Raptors game, Steven A Smith went on a diatribe about how the Pistons' disappointing season last year was all due to Flip Saunders. Smith went on to the effect that Detroit's starting five were begging Flip to play the bench more. Now, I haven't been able to identify Smith's "insider sources," but they don't seem to live in this dimension...

Trevor Ariza is a Dirty Dunker! - II

phdribble phdribble posted 1/5/2008 from phdribble.typepad.com

I was looking for some more evidence for the thesis that "Trevor Ariza is a Dirty Dunker," and I found the smoking gun. Evidence D: Ring Ding Dong.

We're watching the soon-to-be legendary "Shorts Shorts Game," and my buddy from 'Sota had a HUGE revelation. So, after the aRiza nailed KG in the nuts about midway through the game, I did some looking for video evidence...

There has been much talk about the tragic downfall of the Big German. Of his sojourns in the Out-Back where he reannotated his dog-eared copy of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. While this is all no doubt true, and I love the storyline as much as the next guy, we have officially come to the chapter of the story when Dirk becomes underrated...

These sorts of reactions always get to me...But, "Bulls Ready to Deal Wallace?" (headline cobbled from RealGM.com), and "Hughes Reportedly Being Shopped"? Um, really?

Highlights from the European Basketball Association
Highlights from the European Basketball Association

phdribble phdribble posted 12/23/2007 from phdribble.typepad.com

For those of you who missed it, the top two teams from the European Basketball Association played last night. Filled with high flying mayhem, diming wizardry, and touch-American-football defense, it promised to be a treat. Final: Phoenecian Suns 122, Turin Raptors 103. And, perhaps the surprise of the game, an American import Chris Bosh (pronounced B-O-SCH) was the best player on the court...
