Larry Ellison’s getting impatient with Chris Cohan
Larry Ellison’s getting impatient ...
Larry Ellison is rich, he loves attention and he’s a winner, as evidenced by his America’s Cup triumph over the weekend. Chris Cohan possesses only one of those three aforementioned traits. Regardless of what we’ve heard about those tax evasion charges, Cohan is clearly a very wealthy...

You can have Anna Kournikova, I’ve always been a Martina Hingis fan. It’s not that I have a thing for big foreheads — Tyra Banks is my least favorite non-criminal in the world. I don’t know if it was because I’ve always been a brunettes-over-blondes guy, Hingis’ slightly...

Why LeBron won’t repeat as MVP...
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...

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...

It’s like a Sunday several years ago, when this news ran across the ESPN crawler: “Kobe Bryant arrested on felony sexual assault charges in Eagle, Colorado.” I just got this text from my buddy Carp. Instead of a celebratory comment about Frank Gore, I got this:

The sad saga of Patrick Mills continues...
There’s a nice, happy headline from ESPN.com: Portland Blazers draft pick Patty Mills to miss summer league after breaking foot. After watching Mills play better than any other Boomer in the Olympics (including the always-underwhelming Andrew Bogut), including a 20-point performance against Team...

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

Shaq dealt, is Nash next?

I can’t wait for the NBA Draft, because I want to see if it can possibly measure up to the preamble. David Stern gets his dream trade, as Shaquille O’Neal and LeBron James will be teammates next season. The big question isn’t if Shaq will get his chance to give Kobe Bryant a final “How’s...

The Lakers won the NBA championship in the second quarter tonight, thanks to a three from Trevor Ariza in the second quarter. At the time, the Lakers had weathered many storms already in Game 5 — a quick start from the Magic that gave them an early 9-point lead; referees who weren’t going...
