Nope. Damn shame, though. Here's a video of
the whole shaboodle. Thoughts on the rest of the

It is my intent that you will come
to view this site as a valuable resource. Between

Simple question: Did the tough economic climate affect
NBA team's spending plans as much as MSM scaremongerers
would have you believe? Not-so-simple answer: Kind of. This summer saw a team that could have had nearly 8 figures of cap room opt not to use any of it. The Oklahoma City Thunder did ...

It seemed purposeless to re-post it, so I'll
just link to instead. On Tuesday night, I attended
my first ever NBA game. It was only a preseason game - the Jazz versus the Bulls in London's o2 Arena - but it was something. I had to pop my cherry somewhere sometime, and this was it. I wrote a ...

Training camp. Yes. Yes yes yes. Love it.
Ever since I grew up with a mild addiction
to the Championship Manager series of computer games , I have nurtured a mild fascination and raging semi for transactions in sports. I know it's not healthy, but I also know I'm not alone. It might be harsh on ...
