5 reasons why Warriors fans need to Melo out
5 reasons why Warriors fans need to Melo...
Carmelo Anthony will not always be a Denver Nugget. He will play for a different NBA team, maybe this season, definitely the season after that (whether that season would start in 2011 or 2021 is anyone’s guess). But regardless of what Adrian Wojnarowski tosses out there, anyone who believes that...

Watching the Lakers dismantle Utah last night in the same fashion the Jazz nearly always impose their will on the Golden State Warriors, this much was clear: the Warriors are eons away from contending for the Western Conference title. Well no duh, you say (I’m paraphrasing). The Warriors were the...

Carmelo Anthony and Dirk Novitzki have obviously lost weight. Steve Nash has gained a little nastiness and a chip on his shoulder. Chris Bosh looks like he’s on his way to the contract year to end all contract years. And perhaps most importantly, Kobe Bryant studied post moves directly from the...

If the start of this NBA off-season has shown us anything, it’s that the split between the elite teams and the schedule-fillers is swelling. Actually, the NBA is on the verge of moving further from parity than at any time since the 1997/98 season, when four teams (Bulls, Jazz, Sonics and Lakers)...

Can’t say I saw that one coming. You probably can’t, either. Based on the Lakers’ pattern coming into tonight’s Game 6 at the Pepsi Center, pretty much everyone who follows the team expected to see a Game 7 on Sunday. That, along with an early double-digit lead for Denver, a technical...

David Stern probably woke up at 4 am this morning in a cold sweat. Nike is rapidly putting together a Carmelo Anthony puppet and debating whether a Hedo Turkoglu doll would scare children. Mike Breen just asked himself, “If nobody’s even watching the games, do I really need to wear my toupee?” We’re...

Besides Damon Bruce and Mychael Urban, this site probably doesn’t have a lot of fans at KNBR 680. Ours is probably the biggest area in the United States where the media refuses to really criticize each other too much. It’s a pretty sensitive area, so even though I probalby consume as much...

Utah’s precipitous fall from title contenders to getting waxed in the first round was one thing, but it was another game last night that showed just how wide open the Western Conference might be next season: the New Orleans Hornets losing by 58 points to the Denver Nuggets. It was a home loss so...

“Can’t we all just agree Boston is going to win the East unless they suffer a major injury to KG, Pierce or Allen? Yes? Good.” Uh, whoops. The above quote is from my NBA Western Conference first round playoff predictions. Not only was I completely wrong in picking Dallas and Phoenix...

I’ve long harassed my buddy Sean for his “Fantasy Curse” on the San Francisco Giants, since seemingly all the Giants on his fantasy baseball teams have had either an injury-plagued or sub par years.Hmmm…maybe I should have just kept quiet.During the draft in our league, “The...
