10-Day roundup: Is Posey starting yet?
10-Day roundup: Is Posey starting yet?...
Well, I’m back from a week in Kauai, and man am I glad to be back in San Francisco. Does that sound believable? Because it’s a complete lie. Fog, street-poop and my job. Yeah, I’m really glad I’m not still in that tropical paradise. But that’s the last I’m going to...

I can’t concentrate on work. The same work that has caused my writing on this site to become as sporadic as two consecutive made three-pointers from Ron Artest. Game 7 is less than six hours away, and I couldn’t be more nervous. You see, for those of you who haven’t been reading every...

Think about this series long enough, and you’ll get twisted up in your own thoughts. For as long as we can remember, writers and TV analysts have been given one job every NBA Finals: pick the supposed “x-factor.” Maybe you could say the same thing about every NBA Finals, but this series...

While both the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers bring back teams to the 2010 NBA Finals that are relatively intact compared to the squads that met two years ago, there are some modest differences. Some people have gone from feisty upstarts to content veterans, some have a chip on their shoulder...

I knew Andre Agassi was up to something. Crystal meth was a bit surprising, I saw Agassi as more of a testosterone and coke guy, but it’s still not shocking, considering Bjorn Borg, John McEnroe, Martina Hingis and probably countless others have railed up before playing Grand Slam matches. The...

NBA Tuesday: BASG off-season power poll...
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)...

I’m not going to go all draft crazy tonight. I just can’t. There’s only thing we know about the who the Warriors are going to select is that it won’t be Jordan Hill. The Warriors already had two young 6’10″ forwards that Don Nelson didn’t really like using last...

Although I’m about as far from a Celtics fan as one can be without my last name being “Rambis,” the best thing about this epic first round series between Boston and Chicago might be the chance to appreciate two of the top clutch players in basketball over the last decade do their thing....

LeBron James hit a half-court bank shot at the halftime buzzer on his way to a 38/8/7 performance in his first game. Kobe Bryant’s Game 1 didn’t include the same type of videogame statistics, but his thunderous dunk over Paul Millsap in the fourth quarter punctuated a Lakers win that was...
