I'm a sports-mad guy living in Japan (with my wife & baby boy), originally hailing from Australia.

Here I hope to share my musings on the NBA and sports in general, and maybe on occasions add the occasional 'life-in-japan' anecdote.

with-malice.com — A few days ago I declared that I wouldn't be upset to see Kobe rest a few... games. I dare say that quite a few Laker-fans were/are in the same boat. It's not that I don't want him to play - I do, but that I want him to be *Kobe*, and not someone else channeling their best #24... with a little ... (more) Better off
All Time Favourite Player? (give-away)
with-malice.com — My all-time favourite player is Kareem. I'm a Kobe fan, but all-time, it's #33. For a big... man, he was just so smooth. Grace that belied his strength. The sky hook is poetry in motion. Continuing the celebration, I've come into some Dean's Dip product. If you want to win a free ... (more) All Time Favourite Player? (give-away)

with-malice.com — If the above is true, this is one helluva holiday! I thought it was time to change... my blog to more accurately reflect what it is.

Idle thoughts of an NBA nature...
with-malice.com — Some thoughts leading into the weekend (well... my weekend). Finally... the Lakers' co-tenants bail on the idea... that Mike Dunleavy's not hurting them as a coach.

Remembering: Feb 1st 2008, Pau Gasol joins LA
with-malice.com — February 1st 2008, Pau Gasol joins the Los Angeles Lakers. Look at this ESPN review of the... trade with Bill Walton and Steven A. Smith. It's actually amazing how accurate they were. And their only questions? How good is Pau Gasol, and how will he fit in once in LA? The ... (more) Remembering: Feb 1st 2008, Pau Gasol joins LA

Kobe tops LA Points List (& Jerry West's thoughts)
with-malice.com — Going into the game against the Memphis Grizzlies, Kobe Bryant needed 28 points to equal Jerry West's... record of 25,192 points scored. In a 95-93 loss (damnit!), #24 amassed 44 points to set the new mark at 26,008. An amazing achievement for someone who still has a lot of career left. So... ...
