YAYsports! NBA

Nike has launched what might be the most revolutionary marketing device they’re ever had - a blog. What can you find on the Nike Blog?
It’s nothing like you’d expect, actually. One would assume it’s really just an ad for their shoes and apparel, but it’s so much more than that. Check out this post […]

It’s a slow day in the NBA, which is convenient, since we’ve signed up at MySpace and have now discovered a new way to waste unbelievable amounts of time.
Let’s just run down some of the things that have happened since our Ben Gordon post yesterday.
1) The Red Sock emailed to say, “hey, we should […]

The guy who owns the Knicks goes on a road-trip with the team once every year, and the time for that trip is apparently now. Whether he’s doing that because it’s so much fun to watch the Knicks or because he needs to get away from Isiah before he kills him is unknown.
If it’s […]

This is Cavalier basketball. Fourth quarter, close game. Why do you guys only play at 75% effort? Just try hard all the time. Why are you making this so difficult on yourselves?
(Also, stop taking so may lazy-ass jumpers when you should be getting the ball inside or driving to the hole. SWEAR WORDS!!!!)
Okay, we’re […]

KG had his 413th moment of frustration last night and lobbed a ball into the stands, accidentally hitting a fan.
The dude who the ball grazed wanted to be wheeled off on a stretcher. If this had been an away game, we can see this. Maybe. This happened in the Target Center, however.

It’s our dad’s birthday, so if you happen to know him, please drop him a line and tell him happy 33rd. Happy birthday, father! Maybe the Cavs will try for you tonight.
Is JR Smith’s problem is NOK that he sleeps through meetings and forgets his sportcoat? (Scroll down almost to bottom.)
Tony Soprano goes to Nets […]

We don’t want to accuse Stephen A. Smith of literally phoning in his columns - that’s just crazy talk.
However, yesterday he wrote the most rambling piece of garbage we’ve read since we reread our own posts from Friday. He says (we think) that the only reason Maurice Cheeks was hired to coach the Sixers was […]

Click to read buddiesYes, it’s the Detroit Pistons.
Yes, you’re on the road.
You can’t really go in there expecting to come out with a win.
However, you could at least think you might have some sort or maybe even a sliver of a chance for like a couple minutes. The Cavs went into the Palace […]

We’ll be pausing the Cavs-Wiz game to LiveBlog the first ten minutes or so of the Knicks-Nets game aka “Steve Francis’s Coming Out Party.” Here’s a little game preview.
The new Knickerbocker doesn’t understand why everyone is all upset about him and Marbury playing together.
“I swear, until just now, until I got to New York, […]
