YAYsports! NBA

We apologize for our last post turning into a quasi-PSA against the filthy habit of cigarette smoking, but our baseline reaction to Adam Morrison’s revolting life choice left us with no other recourse.
As such, we shall take this post in an altogether different direction, ie Europe.
With the new-look Celtics and other teams parading around […]

For us, today’s NBA focus is not on the pending preseason, but inside of various American courtrooms, where the Knicks and Sonics are tackling issues related to sexual harassment and rootin-tootin, relocating ownership groups.
We’ve covered Isiah and the Knicks situation not nearly enough, but a quick read of ESPN’s Chris Sheridan will get you up […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence. The following was not written by him because he is on his way home from Iran after being held captive.)
(If I had PhotoShop and knew how to use it I would mark out the McDavid on his shorts and put Jack Cobra. I would also come […]

The whole “what is the new ownership of the Seattle Sonics gonna do” thing is finally beginning to move forward, with rootin-tootin owner Clay Bennet unveiling his fake arena plans, which he’ll use to continue to pretend he wants the team to remain in Washington State.
It’s all very numbery and confusing, but basically the state […]

As Brian Windhorst informs us via his blog, our beloved Cavaliers have installed a new floor, one our beloved mother called to tell us looks like “a championship floor”.

We like this PHX-esque model way more than the old one, and this is just more evidence of Dan Gilbert’s ongoing attempt to be a really super […]

While browsing SacTown Royalty, we were struck by the title of this post:
New Arena = Officially Dead
No, not because of the startling proficiency with which TZ combined English and Math, but by the words themselves.
The linkage goes through to an article in the Sacramento Bee about the city’s push for a new arena for the […]

The latest in the saga of Bonzi Wells (aka “the guy who ruined all the NBA annuals that are already on the stands”) is that he’s talking with the Houston Rockets.
They don’t have much money to offer, nor do they likely have a starting spot. They do, however, have an awesome 1-year, $2.1M insult to […]

Naturally, when your team revamps the logo, they may also thrust upon you things like new souvenir cups, uniforms, and in very special cases, all-new courts.
Such is the case with the Milwaukee Bucks, who unveiled their new home floor yesterday, to the delight of yuletide well-wisher types everywhere.

Looks like they’re going with the PHX style […]

While the new Sonics owners get defensive over their move to the OKC attempts to keep the Sonics in Seattle, another Western Conference city is sleeping a lot easier this morning.
Sacramento has reached an agreement with the Maloof Brothers (i.e. the Kings owners) to build a new downtown arena for 2010.
The thing will cost plus/minus […]

Dirk’s $5,000 fine may not be all he’s looking at when it comes to repurcussions from that ball he kicked into the stands after Game 5.
Michael Alan, a 63-year old Miami fan, says the ball hit him in the side of the head, and he’s been suffering from headaches ever since. He’s considering calling […]
