We have no time for Photoshop, etc today, but we know you need to read our thoughts on this -
Believe it or not, this actually has me contemplating getting League Pass for the rest of the season.
It’s not Gasol-to-the-Lakers or anything, but look at the dynamics of how LeBron plays, and you have be […]

Isn’t it a little early for this?
C’mon, we’re as intrigued (well, probably not actually) as the next person about how good the Celtics really are, but ESPN is either borderline insane or just fishing for headlines.
Twelve years ago, the Chicago Bulls set a standard of success that many think will never be matched: 72-10 in […]

Toronto at 2-0? Unsurprising.
Indiana at 3-0? Shocking!
Both Chicago and Washington at 0-3, and looking bad doing it? Worth keeping an eye on, plus a Sunday post.
The Bulls lost to Milwaukee last night, and Yi Jianlian looks like he’s like good at basketball-playing and stuff. (That’s probably a post unto itself, but you know that’s […]

(Jack Cobra reporting for duty once again.)
Joakim Noah has become my favorite player on my favorite team and I’m not even sure why. He’s only played one game and it wasn’t even a real one. He wasn’t even able to participate in the Summer League schedule the Bulls played because of a bum shoulder. He […]

(Jack Cobra again. That picture up top is being re-produced without expressed written consent of The Cavalier or the YAYSports Gods. I’m not sure when this was made by The Cavalier but obviously Katie Couric was still on The Today Show so it’s been quite some time.)
I never write about basketball anymore on my own site because […]

(Jack Cobra here)
Well, it looks like Kevin Garnett is willing and ready to use his veto power to keep himself out of Celtic green for next season. I can’t say I blame him. What would the Celtics have if they traded for Garnett?? Still thinking……..still thinking……..oh yeah, Paul Pierce. That’s not enough.
Plus, have you seen […]

(Hi! It’s Jack Cobra. I have to write this in italics so you know it’s not The Cavalier writing. Imagine me saying that in a cheery tone, but overly sarcastic at the same time.)
Well, if you didn’t know…..the Pistons closed out their series against the Bulls last night. It looked like the Bulls were going […]

Well, well, well.
Just when you thought they were dead, the Bulls come back and win two in a row, including a blowout of the Lasers in tonight’s Game 5 in Detroit.
The series is now at 3-2, and heading back to Chicago. At no point should you think the Lasers won’t win this, although we […]

(This is the sentence wherein we pay lip service to the Suns-Spurs Game 3 (Winner in bold!), which was a better game, with more interesting storylines, and a more important outcome series-wise.)
If you’re making a list of complaints about lasterday’s Cleveland loss to New Jersey, you may want to start with something along the […]

(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. […]
