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...

Don’t fear the beard, Larry Ellison wants to save the Warriors

Trade Monta Ellis and Vlad Radmanovic for Ray Allen. Trade the entire team besides Anthony Randolph, Stephen Curry and next year’s first round pick for Tracy McGrady. See if we care. Remember “We Believe”? Now, it’s “We Hope.” We hope that when Larry Ellison finally...

In one of my many “the Warriors should get something for Monta Ellis while they can” posts I’ve written over the last six months, I threw out the idea that the Warriors should call Danny Ainge and see if they could unload Monta’s and Maggette’s contracts for Ray Allen’s...

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....

I can see Bill Simmons bursting through the back door of his house, running into his backyard in a rage, throwing his arms towards the sky and yelling, “FISHERRRRRRRR!!!!!” Lakers 110, Boston 109 was also the best NBA game of the season, even though it was hardly the prettiest. Of course,...

Celtics loss to Lakers may be P.J.’...
Beyond ending the Celtics’ ridiculously long winning streak, did the Lakers accomplish anything concrete in this afternoon‘s 92-83 win? Or more aptly put, should Danny Ainge already be on the phone as you read this, contacting the agents for every Senior Citizen Center (SCC) available? You’d...

Are the Giants Pitching Yet?...
While getting ready to remind everyone that the Giants only scored five runs in 32 innings against San Diego at home, Fred Lewis came up to the plate against Trevor Hoffman. After one of the furthest non-homers ever hit, Lewis stood on third base as the winning run. When Jose Castillo hit his slow grounder...
