One of the greatest advantages in getting so many basketball minds in one place with the TrueHoop Network is…well, getting so many basketball minds in one place.  It would be a shame not to take full advantage of the network’s capabilities, and so we had a round table of sorts to discuss potential All-Star Game reform. Rob Mahoney, The Two Man Game: All-Star Weekend has been ‘broken’ for a long time.  The voting has become suspect, the dunk contest is driven by toys and ploys, and the game itself, while it has never really valued substance over spectacle, ...

The page is constantly updated, and it's a pretty cool tool for those of us that sometimes like to do things that aren't that cool. Among looks at Yao Ming , ...

The Deng Factor

... Deng talks a little about his work with the Bulls:Every season the main goal is to really improve, to show the organization and the fans you have a great group of guys willing to work hard and take a step ahead. After what we did last year, we really have a big step to cover. Next year our focus is to be one of the forceful teams in the Eastern conference and hopefully try to win the Eastern Conference. Well all this talk about basketball has given me the itch. Luckily, the FIBA USA tourney starts tonight on 10pm central on ESPN Classics.
