... when they found out. “They were like, ‘Huh? Why is Jenny Craig in your fridge? Why are you eating this?’ But then I’d be at a friend’s house and have my weekly check-in call, and they saw how serious I was about it and it helped.” Weighing in at 215 lbs. last season, we’d be surprised how much weight Davis actually lost/put on over the summer. He’ll reveal the magic number at a press conference in L.A. on Friday, and don’t worry, we’ll be sure to follow up and let you know. Source: PEOPLE

"In the off-season, it's kind of hard to maintain day-to-day," [Baron] says. "I don't want to get up and cook. And when I pig out, I'm the type of person where there's no limit to what I can do." His favorite pig-out food? "Definitely Mexican," he says. "I go to Pinches Tacos in L.A., ...

But perhaps he’s spent the summer eating too much homemade comfort foods. Before he’s even played a game for the team, he’s effectively made an off the court turnover. He’s joined Jenny Craig. ...

I'm not going to sit here and claim that I actually know anything about how trash talking works in the NBA, but I'm pretty confident that openly shilling for Jenny Craig might open a player up to some ridicule. Just a hunch. And while I'm not saying that Baron Davis won't be able to take the derision, it's safe to say that I'm still more than a little puzzled by his decision to be the subject of a People Magazine article where he claims that during the off-season "it's kind of hard to maintain [his fitness] day-to-day." ...

The Knicks have re-signed Allan Houston. I'm not kidding. I'm assuming he thinks everyone forgot about last year's efforts, like everyone forgot Bill Cosby made Leonard Part 6. Who wouldn't want to play for D'Antoni and I'm sure that stroke is making D'Antoni think about it. I can't blame Houston for at least wanting to erase the memory of his efforts last year, but I just don't see it ending much better. Also, Baron Davis is on the Jenny Craig diet. ...
