To paraphrase Charles Barkley, this is like the guy at the end of the night trying to talk himself into one of the 3 ugly fat chicks left at the bar. Lowry is a guy who has a rep of being a sh*t...
Are we still doing that thing where we get mad at a guy that hasn't been here in over 2 years and made a perfectly reasonable decision to go to a team with a warmer climate and better teammates to...
According to TSN Radio, that's the amount of people that watched the game last night. Now that's comedy.
Two things:
1. As one of my former coaches told me: Never leave the game in the hands of the refs. Once you start doing that, you've already lost.
2. Free Throw Attempts Per Game:
DeMar...
This is old news. As much as I don't like Doug Smith from The Star, he's been reporting this for years (something he confirms in his blog today). This isn't about revisionist history, this actually...
Watching the game, I'm not sure what the US could have done. 99% of their offence, they got in the flow and at no time did it feel like they were running up the score intentionally. They were just...
That's a little unfair to compare the 2 situations, because Carmelo and Dwight mean WAY more to their teams than Calderon does. If Dwight and Carmelo had played it low key and 'played the year out',...
The GM made Jose a very rich man at a time when he would have gotten about 60% of his contact out on the open market. If The GM asked him to wash his car on the weekends, he should be grateful. I...
Drafts are always a crapshoot. So it's silly to even speculate on what Ross is going to become. He could be the next Tracy McGrady just as easily as he could be the next Flip Murray. So I don't...
Put me in neither category. It's not to say that I wouldn't enjoy Nash coming, but as a basketball fan, I don't want to see him dragging this team to mediocrity and I don't trust this management...
I don't think it "means" anything more that when two teams with NBA "talent" play each other, anything can happen. After all, New Orleans beat Memphis today too. But I do tend to agree that Jose...
This is a bit of a 'red herring' topic, because, quite frankly, there was a bad PG drought for a long while in the NBA. Starting in 91 (when Jordan hit) to 2005 (when Steve Nash emerged), here were...
Thank God Calderon is back. This offense really hums when he's in the lineup.
I... I can't help it. When someone actually post in all seriousness that the reigning MVP doesn't make their team better and isn't as good as Calderon, I have to post something.
I think this team...
I know that there's been a lockout and the season ended a long time ago, but you all realize that the Raptors were the 2nd worst team in the East, right? 3rd worst overall? Won only 22 games? And...
Remember, Bosh and Carter re-signed.
I know they are different, I'm just doing the lazy sportswriter thing, by comparing guys with similar backgrounds to each other ("OMG!! JIMMER FREDETTE IS LIKE STEVE NASH!! OR JJ REDICK!!!).
My...
If they don't take Kemba Walker and instead choose Hasheem Thabeet... I mean Bismack Biyumbo, I give up.
Something smells about this.... I think the Raptors knew they couldn't come back with the same old same old, but instead of clearing out Bargnani and Calderon or even replacing the General Manager,...
I don't know about you, but I'm SHOCKED that Jimmer Fredette closest comparison was JJ Redick.... knock me over with a feather....
That was a terrible signing at the time. You signed a guy who needed the ball in his hands that had one good playoff run (Hello Jalen Rose!) and only came here for the money with a team that had a...
You know who would be a great centre to pair with him? Roy Hibbe.... uhh... never mind.
(BTW, a bit off topic, but when the GM is still using Jorge Garbajosa as an excuse for the team's failures,...
This is such a non starter it's not funny. Greg Oden isn't going anywhere. Portland is going to make a qualifying offer to him for $8.8 Million, with the possiblity for an extension. Because when...
I love the fact that we, as fans of this team, have been so beat down, we're arguing on who is 'better'. They both don't play any defence, can't create one on one and rebound terribly for their...
