(Jack Cobra, yo.)
I know the dude isn’t in the NBA any longer, but he tried to make a comeback last season….so maybe this is relevant. Scottie Pippen is making a comeback, and is going to play in some games:
Former Chicago Bulls player Scottie Pippen is close to signing a two match deal with Finland’s Torpan […]

(Jack Cobra back and ready to attack, or something like that)
My entire world has been turned upside down in the past few days. First of all, my Chicago Cubs are in first place, everyone knows this. Next, I’m getting ready to go on vacation with the little lady and everyone knows how that usually goes. […]

(Jack Cobra one last time on Friday. I wrote these on Thursday since I’m out of town, just so you guys would be entertained….comment away on that one.)
First, it needs to be said that I never liked Reggie Miller when he played in the NBA. I thought he was a whiner, he flopped his legs […]

As we wrote about lasterday (Yes, this would be posts two days in a row!), Greg Oden has been struggling in summer league.
If you’re a Blazer fan who’s inexplicably looking too much into that and causing yourself a panic attack or two, your days of humbling fears are over.
Greg is getting his tonsils taken […]

The NBA Draft is Thursday, and it’s debatable whether the big news is where Oden, Durant, the Chinese Guy, and all the rest will end up OR where the burgeoning cluster of tradable NBA All-Stars* fall to in the endgame.
Basically, you’ve got Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant, Jermaine O’Neal, Paul Pierce, Pau Gasol, and Ron Artest […]

(Jack Cobra again. I’m taking off after this to watch my Cubs play the White Sox. Enjoy your weekend.)
Knowing that most of you are fans of the Cavs I spent about 6 or 7 minutes trolling around Google to drum up some new information that you might not have heard about. Here it is:
Evertz Technologies […]

(Jack Cobra here. I’m running on fumes coming back from a funeral. Talk amongst yourselves.)
Well…..it’s over.
I’m not even sure what to say. It was fairly evident that in this match-up the Spurs were the better team. I’m not sure if there was one category (statistical or made up) that the Cavs won. The Spurs were […]

Here is a little something for your afternoon/lunch reading pleasure while your significant other (that’s for you Boney) tries to figure out why you are going to watch the Mavs/Warriors game tonight instead of taking him/her out to eat. That picture to the left, compliments of Capt. Morgan, is a precursor of things to come […]

(The Cavalier is on an extended leave of absence due to excessive laughing. The following was not written by him, although he’s pretty sure you knew that.)
Joey Crawford doesn’t want to ref in a league where he can’t throw out superstars for laughing.
As you probably know by now, veteran referee Joey Crawford was suspended […]

Former NBA guard Tim Hardaway took one for the blogosphere by really getting the “awkward statements about John Amaechi made during All-Star Weekend” festivities off to a collossal start.
In fact, this might not be beatable, unless someone just goes on an out-and-out like physical assault, gay-bashing massacre.
You see, yesterday on Dan LeBatard’s radio show…Tim Hardaway…spoke.
“You […]
