TheHype Much much better than Mike Tirico -- the home team callers just know exactly how to describe it. Awesome.
Matt Barnes' look = "Damnit! My dunk on Dirk will now be forgotten!!!!! Noooo"
-
RedBaron Dick Bavetta's look = "We had to T him up, but damn."
The fan reactions watching the replay are great as well.

War Hero: Baron Davis
Thunder Matt's Saloon —
We here at the Saloon don't really pay much attention to basketball. Sure, we have a fantasy league going and even we have a good hearty laugh at the Sonics. But for the most part, we stick to baseball, football and that silly game where a bunch of guys run around a field and kick a ball back and forth and there's no such ...
The seven: What I want from the NBA Finals
Cuzoogle —
Every Wednesday Cuzoogle will feature The Seven which is a list of whatever we feel like. Submit your seven on whatever theme you want today and it will be posted in the coming weeks.
I got a list of demands written on the palm of my hands.
All of these days off with no ball is killing me. The end of the Conference Finals seems like weeks ago and the start of the NBA Finals is still a day away. What it has done is given everyone and their blog time to cover every aspect of the dream series. Will it end up being a build up with no substance? I can’t see that happening. ...
Suddenly, the Clippers Look Quite Good on Paper
The Big Lead —
Props to ESPN’s Marc Stein for breaking some rather earth-shattering NBA news last night: For the first time in recorded history, someone actually chose Donald Sterling and the frugal Clippers. Golden State’s Baron Davis left $17.8 million on the table - perhaps that season-ending tiff with coach Don Nelson was more significant than previously thought - to ink a 5-year, $65 million deal with the Other Los Angeles team, the Clippers.
Let the febrile speculation begin: The Paper Clips won 23 games last season without a point guard and without Elton Brand. Are they 20 wins better with a backcourt of ...
John McCain meets The Obama Slama Jama.
Fear The Beard —
Enough mourning Dubs fans. We can pour some out for our fallen soldier Monta, but now’s the time to lift our glasses for the (finally official) Democratic Nominee for President of these here United States of America, Barack Obama! Yes, there are bigger fish to fry - especially when that fish represents the future of our planet. You remember our planet, the small blue-green orby-thing in the Milky Way Galaxy that won’t have any fish left in its oceans if we let John McCain become president.
I don’t know about you, but I want a candidate who won’t just beat John McCain, but will smash on his ...

Baron Davis, Steve Nash, and Shaquille O’Neal have Jerry Maguire disease
HoopsVibe NBA Blog —
Baron Davis, Steve Nash, and Shaquille OâNeal have Jerry Maguire disease [image] An athlete has Jerry Maguire disease when he uses phrases like leveraging star power , building my brand , or obsesses over the business of basketball. I don t have a problem with players maximizing earnings. After all, this is a business and a cutthroat one at that. However, I do have a problem when players fail to maximize their talent because the business of basketball has distracted them from the game of basketball. Here are a few recent cases of Maguire disease, where off-court interests take priority over on-court dominance. Baron Davis TNT broadcaster ...
Baron Davis: Trendsetter, Mogul, NBA Star
Dime Magazine —
Baron Davis Before the season, it seemed fitting that Baron Davis chose to don No. 1 for the Los Angeles Clippers, as the fate of the franchise has fallen on his shoulders . Despite falling on hard times this season, if that other team in Los Angeles is ever going to turn things around, they need B-Dizzle to be an integral part. I got up with BD in the first half of the season to talk about his new signature shoe, the LI-NING BD-Pre, Team USA in 2012, and the dunk. While half of this interview was printed in Dime #47 , I thought I’d let you read the whole thing… Dime: Talk about your trendsetting sneaker and apparel deal with Li-Ning. ...
We Were Duped: Crawford Dunk on ‘Bron Hits Internet
The Same Intensity —
After a maelstrom of media coverage over the last few weeks because the evidence was snookeyed by LeBron and his band of goons from Nike, the footage of Xavier guard Jordan Crawford dunking on ‘Bron hit the net today. TMZ offered it up as an exclusive, but their grainy, bad angle, cellphone-quality footage has been trumped by a clearer, better angle version on eBaum Nation. I honestly didn’t know what to expect, but after seeing it, I haven’t been this disappointed since Halle Berry’s nude scene in Swordfish. I actually went to see that bulljive in the theaters simply so I could be pressed and be ...
The 2009-2010 NBA Schedule is Out, Less Than Three Months Until the Opening Night Tip!
The Big Lead —
Break out the calendar and jot town these notes for Oct. 27: the Celtics at LeBron in his last season opener in a Cavs jersey, followed by Blake Griffin’s debut in LA against Kobe.
[That week's shaping up nicely: Monday Night Football on the 26th is the Redskins at Eagles, then the NBA season begins on TNT, Wednesday ESPN's got Chris Paul vs. the new-look Spurs , Thursday North Carolina visits Virginia Tech in what should be a battle of Top 20 teams, and then Friday West Virginia travels to South Florida in what fans can only hope is a replay of a great game two years ago.] ...
