YAYsports! NBA

Rather than recount the Cavaliers brilliant (and classic) “kill ‘em with the jumpshot” 3rd quarter strategy against PHX last night, we’d like to get into the world of social networking for a moment.
When we used to have a functional right sidebar, we had a link up to our MySpace profile. Many of you became […]

(Jack Cobra back for a second helping.)
I’m not sure how many of you keep up with tennis…..but, apparently they are having some issues with players not playing hard enough. Does that sound familiar Cavs fans? Well, instead of just letting the players do this, the governing body for tennis, the ATP, has decided to fine […]

(Jack Cobra back at it with the Jack attack…or something like that)
You know that NBA Training Camps are right around the corner when the players start asking for more trades and threatening to sit out training camp. Usually this is a fruitless venture for most players. They are under contract with their current team, so […]

(Jack Cobra reporting for duty once again)
By now you all know about my infatuation with USA Basketball and my disappointment that Team USA is not the best in the world. I’ve been reading all of Chris Sheridan’s reports on ESPN.com and I’ve been following the first two games of the 2007 FIBA Americas Championships (both […]

(Jack Cobra once more)
One of the tougher aspects of being a blogger is deciding when to post certain information. For example, this morning I thought it was more important to post about The Cavalier being influential than posting about one NBA ref having some issues with fixing games and the Mob/Mafia/Underground. By now I’m going […]

With all the uproar over the Suns/Spurs suspensions and the resurrected malaise of the Lasers, a lot of people forgot that last night there was a Jazz-Warriors game.
Of course, was it a Jazz game or a Warriors game? Whose storyline is this now, anyway?
Whatever the case, the Jazz won and the Warriors are […]

(Just a quick shout to Baron Davis for that monster dunk over Ivan in last night’s Warriors win over the Jazz. We told you that thing was going seven…GSW is in no danger of losing at home.)
The general consensus when down 0-2 is that Game 3 becomes a must-win for the team in said hole. […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. He did not write this and does not know why I chose to write about a pre-NBA player.)
It sounds as if the best player in college basketball last season is going to declare himself eligible for the 2007 NBA Draft. During his one season at Texas, […]

There’s some sort of quirk in the schedule that has the Portland Trailblazers playing three games in a row this week.
That doesn’t happen all that often (read: never), and to do it in the waning days of the preseason is strangely cruel.
Head coach Nate McMillan isn’t into it, and wonders how the team will manage.
“I […]

While a lot of people are either excited for tonight’s Mavs-Spurs battle, others are dreading having to watching the Cavaliers again.
As for us, we’re on the road, driving to Utah to introduce our girlfriend to Masha Kirilenko, who lets her husband have sex with groupies.
“So this is the arrangement that Andrei and I have,” […]
