The best NBA free agents who won't dominate the headlines
Marcin Gortat played in all 11 of the Magic's games in the Eastern Conference finals and NBA Finals in the 2009 playoffs, and didn't score more than four points in any of them. He averaged 3.8 points per game in the regular season and has exactly four double-doubles in his two-season career. So ...

Free Agency: Day 1
The Human Highlight Blog — The Free Agent period has started out with a public bang for some clubs---but not so fast for Hawks fans.

This leaves only trades and the full mid-level exception for the Hawks to work with, as well as signing their own free agents. When a good beat writer like Sekou Smith is left with vague blind items on Twitter ...

It seems like Danny Ferry had the entire basketball and sports media world fooled on this one. How in the world he can keep a signing like this under wraps for two days -- two freaking days, in today's unbelievably advanced information age involving Twitter, Facebook, and the ever-present ESPN -- is far beyond me, for sure. (It's also quite ironic that most sports ...
