With his warmups around his ankles…...
Watching Corey Maggette over the last month brings to mind the funniest story ever created by The Onion’s sports section. I can’t go into the specifics here… Wait, yes I can. My censor is me, and it’s 11 pm after another Warrior loss that will serve as another excuse-provider...

Why LeBron won’t repeat as MVP
Posted by Bay Area Sports Guy in Carmelo Anthony, Dirk Novitzki, Hakeem Olajuwon, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Los Angeles Lakers, Shaq, Steve Nash on 11 7th, 2009 | No Comments
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...

NFL, ESPN behind the times with Twitter stance

NFL, ESPN behind the times with Twitter ...
With the NFL coming out this week and putting its collective foot/shield down on the whole Tweeting-athlete phenomenon, the dominant professional sports league in the United States took a step back towards the rest of the pack. Then the self-professed World Wide Leader in Sports did the same thing, with...

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)...

Nate Schierholtz: My Giant

Nate Schierholtz: My Giant...
I guess I’m a member of the media now, albeit not in the traditional sense. I don’t have locker room access, and I don’t spend my afternoons arguing inarguable points on round table talk shows just to create friction with some guy from the Rocky Mountain News (no weirdo, not THAT kind...

Everyone really trusts Larry Riley…What am I missing here?

Everyone really trusts Larry Riley…...
I don’t know why I like mock drafts so much. Their usefulness and/or accuracy usually get squashed by the time the draft starts, if not before. Especially in the NBA, where the general managers aren’t afraid to make trades based on a whim (or a friendly relationship with another GM they used...

Shaq dealt, is Nash next?

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...

Lakers finished Magic in the second quar...
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...

Yeah, I know. I’m going out on a major limb here with that headline, but rest assured the NBA Finals prediction you so eagerly await will be at the bottom of this post. Feel free to check it out if you want. I won’t be offended. But for those with a little bit of patience, get ready for a...

Warriors more likely to trade for Amare ...
Tim Kawakami said that according to his (unnamed) sources, Larry Riley and the Warriors are going to make an all-out push to trade for Chris Bosh, as Riley was hot for CB4 at the trading deadline. Possibly to inflame his rabid commentariat, Kawakami even suggested that Riley and Don Nelson might possibly...
