Donte has a lot of faults, but not all are because of him

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 15:12:22 +1900

Before I write this post let me say that I am one of the many (and I should say MANY) people that thought Donte Greene should stay under the tutelage of head coach Jim Boeheim and his staff for one more year.

Video - Joey Dorsey is a bonehead

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 02:20:15 +1900

Sidelined with a rolled ankle, Joey Dorsey (and his flaming mouth) becomes the first Summer League DNP to lose the game for his team. Dorsey gets ejected after continuing to yap at Dee Brown, who landed a hard foul on Gustavo Barrera. Ironically, the man whose ass Dorsey threatened to kick (Brown) sends the game into overtime with a last-second tip. The Wizards eventually won in ...

Nets couldn't offer 'enough of nothing' to get Camby : Denver Nuggets 24/7

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 15:29:54 +1900

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" than "me"? Well, Mr. Kroenke and staff, you just lost me as a fan and supporter. It was already no fun last year watching Melo, and the "Matadors" ...

Wiz and Rockets, Game 4

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 03:31:10 +1900

I just got done chatting with Nick Young before the Wizards tipped off against the Rockets and Nick, who entered tonight's game averaging 10.7 points on 31.3 percent shooting, talked about trying to "settle down" tonight and tomorrow in the finale. "I think I've been trying to force things a little too much, forcing shots and being a little too aggressive at times," Young said. "I wanted to come out here and play so...Please click on the title to continue reading this entry.

Game 2 Win Makes '86 Cs 59-9 since Christmas

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 13:59:57 +1900

Luis Tiant? Pedro Guerrero? Forget them. Larry Bird may be the greatest hot-weather athlete of all time. Putting Bird against a playoff opponent in a scorching, non-air-conditioned Boston Garden is like putting William Perry one-on-one against a cheeseburger and an order of French fries. The Lakers found that out during that memorable Game 5 two years ago, and the Rockets discovered this fact ...

No sense talking about McGrady …

Mon, 14 Jul 2008 20:39:01 +1900

… at least, so says Chris McCosky : Since when does a one-sentence, non-sourced note from a non-NBA writer in a secondary publication up in Canada warrant such buzz? The Pistons and Rockets are not having on-going discussions about Tracy McGrady. There is no deal. Nothing is remotely close. Joe Dumars hasn’t talked to the Rockets in several weeks and the Rockets have made it ...

Greene drops 40 in Summer League Action

Tue, 15 Jul 2008 15:00:40 +1900

One day after agreeing to his slotted contract offer, Donte Greene showed his range last night shooting 5-10 from behind the arc, and 7-10 inside it. Put that with 11-12 free throw shooting and it adds for 40 points. He also had 3 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 steals and 0 turnovers.

Don't you love seeing the mascot jump in the pile when athletes are celebrating a major win or title? They never get any love even though they hyped up the 11th man for the whole season. You'd think a team would throw the mascot some groupie scraps like the girl with a second head or missing several fingers and toes but nope. Mascots get nothing and like it.
