Donald Sterling's Racist Rant....If you haven't heard
Posted on April 26, 2014 at 02:34 PM.
The the Owner of the LA Clippers, and fans around the world.
My question, after you listen to the video; "Sterling lives in a 'Culture'; so is this 'Culture' share by many other Major league sports Owners?"
Is Racism, still prevalent in todays sports? Or is it just swept under the rug, with MONEY?

Updated Nov 9, 2012 1:39 PM ET

The Los Angeles Lakers have fired head coach Mike Brown after a disappointing 1-4 start to the season, according to multiple reports.

This was Brown's second season in LA. The Lakers finished with a 41-25 record last season.

Reports started to swirl on Friday morning that if the Lakers didn't perform well during their upcoming six-game homestand, that Brown's job would be in jeopardy. Turns out, it already was.

Thunder Trade Harden To Rockets...
Posted on October 28, 2012 at 02:55 AM.
HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS – Contract extension talk between the Oklahoma City Thunder and reigning KIA Sixth Man of the Year James Harden took a wrong turn somewhere. How else to explain tonight’s shocking news, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports and Darnell Mayberry of the Oklahoman, that Harden has been traded to the Houston Rockets for Kevin Martin, rookie shooting guard Jeremy Lamb, two first-round Draft picks and a second-round Draft pick?

Orlando "Have lost their" Magic?
Posted on October 16, 2012 at 11:42 PM.
I know it's only preseason; but this is where crappy teams try and find their identies early, before the season starts, so they dont go through a whole season of being bashed by TSN, ESPN, TNT, and Charles Barkley.
After giving Dwight Howard away to the Lakers, and signing a new rookie head coach, Jacque Vaughn; it's looking more and more like a recipe for failure.
With one or two decent journey men, and a sprinkle of rookies, and no marketable players; screams rebuilding, and the ... Read More

How bad can the Raptors get...?
Posted on June 29, 2012 at 03:23 AM.
Well, as most of you may have read before (prior blogs), i was a longtime Raptors season ticket holder up to a few years ago; and after Thursday nites recent draft, i dont see myself buying into anymore tickets SOON! Are you kidding me!!!!!
They need a PF, a Centre, and a PG, and didnt address any of that with the great listed players available. "Only time will tell" with Ross, who only played in the NIT last year; and everybody else is just a wash and from overseas.
If Toronto thinks ... Read More

Why the Dallas Mavericks got SWEPT?
Posted on May 5, 2012 at 11:30 PM.
Defence was the key to the Dallas Mavericks championship a year ago; and tonight it showed that recently named defensive player of the year, Tyson Chandler was the lynch pin that kept Dallas afloat last playoff season.
Sorry no repeat for the Mavericks, and owner Mark Cuban better answer some more questions on why they let Chandler walk away to the New York Nicks!

i feel a pit in my stomach after watching the Mavericks, swept out of the playoffs, in the first round.

Could a Sonicsgate happen to your fav team?
Posted on April 27, 2012 at 04:25 AM.
I came across this video recently, and thought i would share it with my basketball bretherens. You may have see it or you may have heard about it; but its about my NBA team that i grew up loving, and worshiping. The Seattle SuperSonics. Since the NBA playoffs are about to begin, we dont know what the future holds for those few clubs that are in desprite times, and bad financial situations. So i wanted to give ticket holders and team fanatics a glimpse of what can happen if you dont support your ... Read More

Who's NEXT to get their papers? NBA style.
Posted on March 15, 2012 at 02:17 AM.
Well Nicks Head guy; no not Carmelo Anthony, but recent head coach Mike D'Antoni ousted himself yesterday, sighting "He's not the guy to run this team". I knew MSG was a tough place; but to fire yourself during a losing streak, wont land you a job in the NBA anytime soon.
So i ask the NBA communty; who is next to get their papers this season?
IMO, i would have to say my beloved Portland Trailblazers and their coach Nate McMillan. The Blazers started off great this shortened season; ... Read More

The Clippers will send promising shooting guard Eric Gordon, center Chris Kaman, second-year forward Al-Faroqu Aminu and a 2012 first-round draft pick from the Minnesota Timberwolves that is currently unprotected to the Hornets.

NBA's notable points throughout the 2011 schedule(s)..
Posted on December 6, 2011 at 11:36 PM.
The Denver Nuggets, hit hard by free agency with three of their players in China, face another difficult obstacle in the schedule. They play five games in six nights spanning the new year, including a home-and-home set with the Lakers on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.

The Nuggets do not host Carmelo Anthony, whom they traded to the Knicks last February. Deron Williams, sent from Utah to New Jersey days later, is scheduled to return to Salt Lake City on Jan. 14.

Solution to NBA Lockout; day 128...
Posted on November 6, 2011 at 02:19 AM.
Not too long ago, i posted a enough is enough, with hard *** Owners, and money hungry greedy players.
Well, a few friends of mine have come up with a solution, as we feel that the agents are killing these deals, and setting us back from seeing basketball.

Our solution as follows in these steps:

*First, cancel all current contracts, and close up the League.
*Repurchase the name NBA (rebranded)
*Start a new league, with willing players to play for ... Read More

Enough, is Enough...NBA
Posted on October 19, 2011 at 03:13 AM.
"People don't like to see lockouts," Havlicek said. "They don't like to see people making a lot of money (on both sides) negotiate the way it has come down to. People who are paying the ticket prices think it's unfathomable there would be a lockout."

Cousy, at 83 one of just seven living players who played in the NBA's first All-Star Game in 1951, wishes today's players could adopt some of the spirit possessed by the NBA's pioneers.

"We were as happy as pigs in mud ... Read More
