Bobby Brown Gets NBA Contract...Who Will Give Whitney Drugs?
 
Sorry, sorry, sorry. The Bobby Brown that got an NBA guaranteed contract is actually a different Bobby Brown. That, kids, is what we writers call a "hook". It is somewhere in the writing thesaurus next to the word "shameless". The OTHER Bobby Brown was signed today by the Kings after destroying other guards in the summer league like Mike Conley and DJ Augustin. The growing buzz surrounding ...

Barkley Plays God...Actually Pretty Nice About It
 
We all know that Charles Barkley loves to chuck his hard-earned money down the toilet, what with him losing comical amounts of money to a not-so-comical gambling addiction. Well, now that Sir Charles has gone cold turkey from gambling, what incinerator-like apparatus will he throw his money into? Turns out it is a busboy. Alright, I admit, that last sentence probably sounded a little ...

Top Gamewinners Of The Season
 
This video from NBA TV has been making it around the internet as...well...people like game winning shots. I figured, "Hey, it's Monday. You have a long week ahead of ya, and you need some smiles." We all know nothing spells "smile" like the vision of a bearded Scot Pollard running onto the court to congratulate Ray Allen like some sort of neo-Grizzly Adams: I'm amazed that Durant clip ...

Slow News Day Cheerleader Of The Day: New Orleans
 
When the exploits of James Posey are seen as explosive, pulse-pounding news, you know it is a bit slow in the world of the NBA (incidentally, he signed for the career quagmire of the league, known as "The Bucks") I figure on these slow news days, instead of boring you with half-assed reporting attempts at making James Posey-esque stories sound important, I'd just rather give you some eye ...

O.J. Mayo 1 for 1 In Crazy NBA Halfcourt Shots
 
OJ Mayo, surely one to be on this site many times in the future with his "Ron Artest-like Bravado", and "Reggie Bush-like Collegiate Money Scandals" can now add "Gilbert Arenas-like Circus Shots" to his business card. -That's because of this shot that he drilled yesterday in the summer league. I love full court shots, but have to admit about 99 percent of them are about luck with the ...

Redick: Coming To A Team Near You?
 
With shooting guard Mike "I bring-a da champ-ee-on-sheep to de Orlando" Pietrus signed, JJ Redick's days with the Magic seem to be done. Internet rumors have Redick cleaning out his locker pre-emptively a la Kobe, and telling newspaper folks that "the writing's been on the wall for a while" that he would be leaving Orlando. With his escalating number of snide comments, Redick, arguably the ...

Back With A Vengeance/Free Agency Move Grades
 
Back from the honeymoon and ready to talk NBA. I wanted to do a draft recap with grades and whatnot, but with players already showing their stuff in the summer league that would sort of be a cop-out. Plus, does anyone REALLY want to talk about Brook and Robin Lopez more than they have to? Nah, me neither. Thus, instead let's take a look at what can only be described as a COMPLETELY CRAZY ...

Still In Spain Honeymoonin´ It Up...As The Kids Say
 
Writing using my hotel´s television while I´m on my honeymoon in Spain...That´s right! The friggin´TELEVISION. Technology is wonderful. On the downside, I appear to have no "enter" key and it took me about 5 minutes just to locate the spacebar. On the plus side, I can easily do this: ÑÑÑÑÑÑ¡¡¡¡¡¡ I´ve been wanting to do that for years! Success! Since beer is cheaper than bottled water here, ...

Who Else Likes Trades?!?!
 
This guy does, cause he got out of Milwaukee. However, in bat$**t crazy news, the New Jersey Nets have decided to trade Richard Jefferson to Milwaukee for Yi Jianlian and Busty Busterson Bobby Simmons. If you ask Milwaukee right now, they love trades. They got RJ for 300 million Chinese fans basically. If Yi really and truly hated it there (like he said he was going to and his agent said he ...

Who Likes Trades?!?!
 
This guy does. Finally the reality show we all know as the National Basketball Association ends it's go to challenge Point Guard Wars as the Toronto Raptors have completed a trade (in principal) which sends point guard (questionable title) T.J. Ford, center Rasho Nesterovic, a player to be named, and the #17 pick to the Indiana Pacers for forward/center Jermaine O'Neal. It seems like ...

Getting Married...MOCK DRAFT TIME!
 
So this Saturday, to much fanfare and blaring of trumpets, I am getting married. I am very excited, and not just for the food and the ability to not invite people to the wedding that I've been meaning to distance myself from. As a married man I will be able to punch people and leave a ring-shaped indentation on their forehead. I also will be able to grow that 8 inch handlebar moustache ...
