Carmelo Anthony isn't guaranteeing anything, even victory against
overmatched Canada, writes Chris Sheridan.
The NBA is filled with great basketball
players, but you have to wonder what some of
their parents were thinking when they named them. Here's my countdown of the NBA's worst named players: 10. Martell Webster- Just imagine if you had that name growing up, and then imagine how many friends you'd have. 9. Monta Ellis- Half monster, half mantis. 8. Darko Millicic- ...

Kobe, Paul, Redd, and 'Melo are a few
that were quoted as picking Olympic gold. As a
fan, what's more important to you?
Roland Lazenby of HoopsHype.com: “Faced with a “weird”
situation with center Andrew Bynum, the Los Angeles Lakers
are toying with the thought of bringing back Kwame Brown, a free agent. No, this is not a joke. Yes, this is the same Kwame Brown who rode out of town to a chorus of fan boos in [...]
There's something about Carmelo Anthony that seems to
connect with people. Maybe it's because of the way
he plays -- fearless, smooth in spots, but smash when it's called for. Maybe it's because he doesn't look like he's been hewn from stone; he has ...
"The Birdman" is back in Denver. Chris Andersen,
who earned his nickname for his soaring slam dunks,
has agreed to sign with the Nuggets, multiple sources confirmed.
I've been reading around the SU blogs that
the University of Texas is preparing to retire Kevin
Durant's number and that, to some of the Orange bloggers, that makes no sense. While I can understand their points of view, I do not agree with them, at least not entirely.
The hype is in full effect for Team
America. Redemption, revenge, whatever you want to call it,
Team USA is in the mood to dominate. And they're not just going to spank you. LeBron's holding a ball gag and a paddle and Kobe may have just thrown away the piece of paper with the safe-word. But on to the chatter. Of course the ...
Thanks to WFNY for the heads up on
LB's injury. The AP report says when you jump
high and land on Kevin Durant's foot, it's your ankle that gives. Even if you are LeBron James.
Say what you want about Carmelo Anthony, but
when it comes to Olympic play there isn’t a
better offensive weapon on Team USA. In 2007, Anthony was the 2nd leading scorer at the 2007 FIBA World Championships with 21.2 ppg average (191 points in 9 ...
Interesting when business side of things leads to
teams giving away players for nothing isn't it?
Of all the players and NBA dignitaries I
saw in Vegas for some reason it was Melo's
appearance that stands out....
Even if Team Canada is out of contention
to go to the Olympics Syracuse fans will still
get to see them in action, meaning you will see Andy Rautins play. But I think the SU fan base is going a bit happier because Team Canada will be part of a five game exhibition series that Team USA (with ex Orange Carmelo Anthony and SU head coach Jim Boeheim) will be playing before heading to Bejing.
Sitting in the stands before the Suns /
Wizards end the Summer League and low and behold
the most amazing thing happened during the Knicks / T-Wolves games. No, the Knicks aren't playing any defense (they are down 75 to 55 in the 3rd and that's ...
Luxury tax or not, Marcus Camby had to
go. Camby’s Defensive Player of the Year award in
2006-2007 was a farce. Camby is a good shot blocker, but only went after shots he could block and rarely altered those he couldn’t. Shot blocking ...
When the creative juices are not flowing and
there is no real Raptors news, it usually means
it is time to scan YouTube for anything worth watching. This is a cool video featuring LBJ vs. Melo when they were in high school. Akron St. Vincent - St. ...
With golf's four major championships, it's a rule
that the Masters has the beauty, the U.S. Open
the grind, the PGA Championship the other and the British Open has both the history and the it factor. No other major championship can a ball land in the ...
Could they be eyeing Artest or Smith?
Kent Casey writes: So, let me get this
straight: what the Nuggets have done so far this
off season is get rid of the only two guys who actually cared about defense, were deeply committed to kids and community, and seemed to care more about "team" ...
The Los Angeles Clippers made a move to
help sure up their front line after the loss
of Elton Brand to the Sixers just a few days ago. They made a trade with the Denver Nuggets to acquire Marcus Camby, a defensive guru at center, for only the option for the Nuggets to swap second round picks in 2010. http://rawsportsblog.com/?p=1279
People watch less golf when Tiger Woods is
not involved. That seems fairly indisputable. And even if
you feel like disputing it, well, you would be wrong. At least based on the two tournament, somewhat small sample sized statistics that we have so ...
Should the Nuggets trade Carmelo Anthony? Adam Hoff
of NBA blog Section F Sports thinks so, but
not for the reasons you think. The Whatifsports Playbook is a collection of articles of unique content written by different authors that varies from our typical predictions and simulations.
LeBron James (photo. Mannion) ESPN.com's Chris Sheriden, while
answering several other questions about Team USA, presents his
starting 5 for the United States: Kobe, LeBron (at the 3), Melo (at the 4), Jason Kidd and Dwight Howard. No real surprises ...
It's that time again, and there's some serious
chatter surrounding everyone's favorite pros turned national sports saviors.
Still, Dwyane Wade found the time to enlighten us with the status on his injury. From the Associated Press , via The Chicago Tribune : My knee is feeling good. I went through my first day with the team and did everything everyone else did at ...
Last Monday, USA Basketball announced the 12 man
roster that will comprise the 2008 U.S. Olympic basketball
team. Five of the 12 have participated in the Olympics previously (Carmelo Anthony, Carlos Boozer, LeBron James, Jason Kidd and Dwyane Wade); the only U.S. team that had more Olympic veterans was the 1996 squad--the so-called "Dream Team II" that welcomed back six players from the first ...
The initial rumor being kicked around prior to
this week was that Carmelo Anthony would be meeting
with Nuggets brass regarding trade rumors, which turned out not to be the case: yesterday’s meeting actually resulted in a 2-game suspension for ...
The plea agreement makes the general public question
the way athletes are punished by our legal system.
Looks like it's not just idle chat, it
seems The Pistons are in ongoing trade discussions with
the Denver Nuggets. The Detroit Free Press is reporting: "The Nuggets want to bring point guard Chauncey Billups back to his hometown, and the Pistons are ...
