“Who’s the REAL head coach of the Celtics? Oh, it’s this guy, no question!” Thanks for being honest, Doc. Glad he’s on my team now.
The Bulls just took a flashy step in their mating dance for this summer’s free agents by hiring the Celtics defensive guru Tom Thibodeau.
Widely considered the best defensive coach in the [...]

The Bulls season is over. I could spend a lot of time recapping the ‘09-’10 season, but, truthfully, you’ve all seen the games and know what happened already. And I’m not much for waxing nostalgic. I’d rather focus on our bright future than our plucky past. I’d rather gawk at our young playoff team and [...]

The NBA tips off tonight! Get it? Tips off! Just like the tip off that starts each game! Did you get the joke yet? Really? ‘Cause I don’t hear you laughing yet. Ok. So, I probably didn’t need to tell you that the NBA season starts today, because you would already know that unless you [...]
So TMZ got a hold of the confiscated tape of LeBron getting dunked on by Xavier recruit Jordan Crawford. Take a look. Did you see what I saw? What a cock tease. The kid drives the lane and gets up in the air before LeBron can come over to provide help defense. Nice dunk, but [...]
So for those of you that haven’t heard, LeBron James got dunked on, badly, by a prep star at his basketball camp a couple days ago. He then had Nike confiscate the video tapes and try to put it under wraps. To catch up, read the story on Deadspin here, here, and here. So what [...]
So despite the 2009 NBA draft being held last night, the big news is the trades that have gone down before the draft. Every trade involved a star player and a championship-caliber team. Let’s review the trades made, the teams who made them, and the implications it should have on the 2010 season and playoffs.

In a move that can only be called LeBron-appeasing, the Cavs traded for Shaq today. This is a good thing for them for a few reasons:
1) Shaq is still one of the top 5 centers in the NBA. He will provide a post scoring presence for them that will take some of the scoring pressure [...]
NBA Commissioner David Stern apologized to fans and supporters for failing to get a win for LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers
yesterday in their game 6 loss to the Orlando Magic in the Eastern Conference Finals.
“I take the blame for this loss. I drew up a game-plan for my refs that I thought was [...]
