YAYsports! NBA

Well, it’s late in the day and the end of summer (more or less), so we thought today would be a fine day to do the last ever nose job endorsement.
Thankfully, things should be ramping up on the NBA and the Who Shot Mamba? front soon.
(Admission: part of the Mamba delay is our intention […]

The infamously non-playing Latrell Sprewell is being checked out by Milwaukee police for allegedly choking a woman during a sexual encounter. Any casual sports fan will be able to note that this isn’t the first time the poor lad has fallen victim to the desire to cut off someone’s air supply.
(Although this incident brings up […]

As you may well know by now, Warriors GM Chris Mullin has brought back his old coach, Don Nelson, to lead the Golden State Warriors into battle.
Don was last seen being pushed out (our read) of Dallas - his return to the GSW is somewhat of a surprise, mainly because nobody expected him to return […]

(Don’t read this if you haven’t watched it yet.)
This one followed the same template as most of the other games - it stayed close for awhile, then Team USA made a run of steals, causing our foreign opponents to crumble in fear. Dirk Nowitzki and Co. couldn’t keep up, and LeBron, et al are in […]

Brian Windhorst made mention yesterday of a Nike campaign in China that asks the simple question: LeBron or Kobe?
Well, that there is the ad itself, and we’re Photoshop free for the first time in probably 11 months or so. (It’s quite liberating, but it won’t last - don’t worry.)
Anyway, our first thought when seeing this […]

Two apologies - one, for our last post. Awful, awful, awful. Were this 1984, it’d be gone already.
Second, the bandwidth issues. One day, when we’re not doing this anymore, we’ll be able to afford unmetered hosting, and we won’t have to wait around for our server company to open the gates to more bandwidth.
The […]

When we exposed our weakness for linking to anything people ask us to the other day, we were email assualted with link requests. Some worthy, some unworthy.
A sampling follows, mainly because there’s nothing else to write about and we’re sworn to do this.
The lads at Simple Minded Entertainment have previewed a bunch of […]

With the World Championships going on, there’s all kinds of LeBron news around from all over the place.
For example, he’s gotten two new tattoos this summer. (Scroll to the bottom of that linkage to read about them.)
What continues to be the most interesting stuff to us is LBJ’s billionaire aspirations, and the need/want/requirement to conquer […]

Sometimes you start to feel old because your birthday is imminent. Other times it’s because your sibling has children, who are like, alive and growing and stuff like that.
Other times it’s because you just don’t get something. We were reading Dime’s Smack this weekend, and came across this.
We already told you about Nate Robinson, Jamal […]

Last night was the first time we’ve been able to watch any of Team USA’s World Championship games live, and the experience was something we’ll never forget.
There’s something amazing about watching something happen on TV at the same time it’s happening. They should have a name for it, like “Live TV From Japan That […]
