Quick links on a Thursday

Why the NBA's luxury tax matters now ... and later - ESPN - John Hollinger with a good rundown of what the sinking luxury tax numbers could mean for player movement. He has Washington on a list of teams who will have trouble with the tax next summer. None of that is news to us, though. My (our)...

An Offseason Guide to Fixing the Holes in the Hawks' Game

While the NBA offseason continues to slog on (also known as we're all waiting for LeBron in 2010 and the economy sucks so we're not spending squat), I'd like to offer up my quasi-serious review of what every Hawks player will need to improve this off-season if the team expects to that next...

We Could Play the "What If" Game All Day...

As I was watching highlights of Denver's 58 point slaughtering of New Orleans, I couldn't help but feel nostalgic. I'm sure every single Pistons fan has seen clips of this series and wondered, "What if we still had Chauncey Billups?" I wasn't, though. Not this time, at least. I already know...

What's Next?

I woke up this morning with a pounding headache and I attribute it all to the realization that a Pistons era has ended and not to a lack of sleep. After yesterday's lopsided loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the playoffs, I can't help but feel depressed knowing there is still...

Fine amounts are not set yet, but NBA observers and video reviewers will be tasked with reporting blatant violations. This is fantastic news and something that Dave and I have been pulling for since long...

Greene drops 40 in Summer League Action

One day after agreeing to his slotted contract offer, Donte Greene showed his range last night shooting 5-10 from behind the arc, and 7-10 inside it. Put that with 11-12 free throw shooting and it adds for 40 points. He also had 3 assists, 3 rebounds, 2 steals and 0 turnovers. That's right, the guy...

Yao Back, Summer League and Other Notes

Yao Ming, Yao Ming, Yao Ming Yao MingYesterday Yao Ming took part in a warm up game for the Olympics with his native Chinese National Team. He put up 11 points in 12 minutes and looked rusty by all accounts that aren't full of crap. AP on ESPN article here I have no idea if Yao is rushing back at...

Ron Artest - Why this guy?

So let me get this bit of information out there quickly. I'm not an Xs and Os basketball guy, yes, I know them, but in my mind, "plays" in basketball work about 4 times a game, and usually they are just where did the screen get set or who gets the ball on the inbound and then who cuts where. My...
