Earlier this week, we mused (index.php?option=com_content task=view id=3786 Itemid=260) about the NBA possibilities for former Memphis Tiger Joey Dorsey. In the interest of providing equal opportunity coverage to all components of one of the most memorable collegiate championship games of all time, we shift our focus today to another man who could well be a gem of ...

stream live games in local markets, an aggressive offering that will
set up a showdown between cable operators and regional sports networks.
The move marks the latest evolution in digital rights and adds fuel
to one of ...

Ok, I know this is several weeks late, but I'm just now getting around to looking at the schedule (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/teams/schedule?team=bos).

This much seems fairly evident in Miami so far: Nothing short of a complete health catastrophe should prevent the Heat from upping their wins total to well more than the putrid 15 they put up in 2007-08.
With Dwyane Wade looking rejuvenated and absolutely killing it internationally, a full season of Shawn Marion and the arrival of super-duper draft talent Michael ...

Of any number of 2008 draftees worth taking a look at, one seems to have caught my fancy on another lazy summer morning of the NBA's seemingly interminable off-season.
With former Memphis Tiger Joey Dorsey guaranteeing this weekend that he will officially be a member of the Houston Rockets come the start of training camp ...

Scott Souza had a nice writeup on Big Baby (http://www.milforddailynews.com/sports/x1507910916/Courtside-View-Davis-feeling-at-home) this weekend. Rather than heading home, Davis has spent the majority of time in Waltham this summer.
While Davis is always reticent to talk about exact scale readings,
he does appear a bit sleeker than the 289 pounds the 6-foot-8 power

If there was one prospective summer acquisition for the Celtics that really made me queasy, it was a certain point guard from Coney Island and cousin of a former Celtic.
Big sigh of relief on that account. While NBA executives aren't exactly known for being super-candid, all indications seem to be that the New York Knicks will in fact be keeping Stephon ...

Who is the greatest basketball coach of all time?
My list starts with Red Auerbach and his 8 straight NBA titles (9 out
of 10) and has to include John Wooden, the immortal coach of UCLA's run
of 10 NCAA titles in 12 years. There are others who will point to Phil
Jackson and his 9 NBA titles, coaching two different teams, or immortal
college coaches like Dean Smith and Adolph Rupp, but ...
