Chauncey Billups has made an instant impact on Denver Nuggets - Chris Mannix - SI.com

—

Here is the 2008-2009 preseason definition of the Denver Nuggets, straight from Webster's Mythical Dictionary of NBA Franchises: a n individually talented, athletically superior, run-and-gun team that is missing a bona fide floor general capable of making big shots, controlling the tempo and ...

Game to pay attention to: the Keon Clark Cup

— sports.yahoo.com — Toronto at Denver This could truly be a fun one. Sure, the Keon Clark Cup (sorry, Kevin Willis ) could get ugly, but I'm more interested in two teams trying to establish themselves amongst the muck of their respective conferences. (As they ...

Shootaround: Dec. 3, 2008
RaptorBlog.com — ... lists some free agents that might be able to improve the Raptors bench. Chris Mannix writes about the instant impact Chauncey Billups has had on the Nuggets. Yeah, we noticed, Chris. T.J. Ford and the Indiana Pacers are 7-10 so far this season, but ...

Ball Don't Lie — ... Chris Mannix, SI.com: "Five games, five Golden State losses and a more than 2:1 turnover-to-assist ratio. Maggette's selfish play hasn't gone unnoticed by other players. According to sources, after the final buzzer against Boston, Celtics forward ...

The Fundamentals
BallerBlogger.com — ... Chris Mannix of CNNSI.com:  “Five games, five Golden State losses and a more than 2:1 turnover-to-assist ratio. Maggette’s selfish play hasn’t gone unnoticed by other players. According to sources, after the final buzzer against Boston, Celtics forward Kevin Garnett turned to Maggette and shouted, ‘Way to get your numbers’ ‘He just puts his head down and goes to the basket,’ an Eastern Conference scout said. ‘He doesn’t even look to pass.’ Word from team sources is that the Warriors are already regretting signing Maggette to a five-year, $50 ...

Meet Kevin Garnett, NBA Whistleblower
FanHouse — ... Peeler (NEVER FORGET!) or socking Rick Rickert, KG has taken up a role as the NBA's lead whistleblower. Last week, Edwards keyed us to Garnett's outside opinion on the status of Chris Bosh's mind, in which KG suggested Bosh looks frustrated and may have to look elsewhere when free agency arrives. (Garnett proved himself a soothsayer, as the sacking of Sam Mitchell Wednesday indicates the franchise sees a pressing need to improve before 2010.) Garnett took a different tact with Warrior forward Corey Maggette, according to SI.com's Chris ...

“I Just Call It Like I See It, Dog”
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans — That’s what KG said after last night’s game when he said he felt like there were 3 Rondo’s out there.  It’s a philosophy that applies to everything, apparently, as FanHouse points out: Last week, Edwards keyed us to Garnett’s outside opinion on the status of Chris Bosh’s mind, ...

Greg Oden Didn’t Miss Any Dunks Last Night
Intentional Foul — Yes, I know this pic is from his OSU days. Wanna make something of it? A little bit was made about Greg Oden missing two dunks in Madison Square Garden the other night (H/t to TBL). To his credit, the author didn’t try to extrapolate that out into “Oden’s a bust” territory. In fact, he went the opposite direction, saying Oden’s future looks downright slam dunk-ish. Because, however, something was made of Oden’s missed slams, I’m happy to report there was no carryover against the Wiz from Washington. On his way to another double-double (13 and 10), Oden was 3-3 on dunk ...

TFD: Who is next on KG’s hit list?
Randball — cow.jpg It’s been a couple of weeks since we had an official COW. AZGG won recently but deferred to instead offer a dispatches post from the Vikings at Arizona game. We gave our swift stamp of approval on that measure. But it’s time to get back to the voting. Who will it be? While you think about that, also consider that Kevin Garnett is not only relishing his role as a defending champion but making other players feel bad about being selfish ballhogs. Case in point, from SI.com ...

Pre-game Tid Bits (at Houston)
Inside the Warriors — ... * See that SI piece about how the Warriors are already regretting Maggette? More surprising to me was Kevin Garnett’s alleged comments. Normally the players stick together. The animosity ends as soon as the final horn sounds. For KG to get at Maggs like that, if he did, is shocking to me. That sounds like he doesn’t like the guy. ...
