NBA Tuesday: Jameer Nelson’s comeb...
Of the four NBA teams I saw in person this year, the Orlando Magic were by far the best. Sure, two of those teams were the Golden State Warriors and Oklahoma City Mascot Thieves, but I also saw the Cleveland Cavaliers win that buzzer beater at Oracle in Monta Ellis’ first comeback game. The Cavaliers’...

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...

Did Kobe finally learn his lesson?...
Desperate times call for desperate measures, and for Kobe Bryant last night that meant passing. In his postgame interview with ESPN’s Doris Burke (who’s so good at her job as a sideline reporter that it’s unsettling, both for the viewer and Phil Jackson, who’s used to treating...

NBA Tuesday: David Stern’s worst n...
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...

On L.A. radio, the sky is falling

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...

Phil Jackson, your team could have ended the Rockets’ season today, but instead they served up one of their worst performances of the season, getting routed by Houston even though they were without Yao Ming! What do you have to say for yourself and your team? “They didn’t anticipate...

I have to thank Manny Ramirez. While the drug he tested positive for couldn’t have made him as fertile as the chick on the First Response commercials (Ovulation Sensation, baby!), I can’t get mad at the guy who’s given me by far the most material over the past year. So I dedicate this...

If you gave Rick Adelman truth serum tonight and asked him if he wished Derek Fisher wasn’t suspended for Game 3, he’d surely say yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Jordan Farmar has played games where he’s been more technically proficient, games where he’s shot better and made more...

Will all the physical skirmishes this week in the NBA Playoffs, you can’t blame Shaq for training in Mixed Martial Arts. That’s right, the most frightening physical presence in the NBA since Charles Oakley is in the gym as we speak, studying Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and talking of a post-NBA career...

2-for-18 from behind the three-point line, including Kobe Bryant doing his best Baron Davis impression from behind the arc (1-for-7). 5 rebounds from Lamar Odom. 2 fouls in the first 2 minutes for Andrew Bynum. A sleepwalking Derek Fisher. There were several reasons why the Lakers lost 100-92 to the...
