At Basketball Prospectus. Here's an explanation. And here's a cool little thing: You can see a player's season long +/-. For instance, in 1,386 minutes as a Nugget, Chauncey Billups is a remarkable
We knew that Graydon Gordian and Timothy Varner at 48 Minutes of Hell were good bloggers. Read it and you'll see: There's enough insight there to make even a Suns fan appreciate the Spurs just a little.
The Thunder supporting cast should assist on more shots. Phil Jackson has earned a lifetime achievement award. And Jahidi White is on Wizznutzz's short list for Best NBA Player in a Lead Role: K
Years down the road, when blogologists examine how and why blogs emerged as a reliable source of information for sports fans, Mike Kurylo's Knickerblogger will be a primary source. Kurylo was the first team
Blogging the Lakers isn't easy. The team dominates the sports scene of the nation's second-largest market. The Lakers revel in the media circus, and feed their suitors a constant stream of intrigue to k
It's funny, but when I saw that Kobe Bryant had hurt his finger, it never occurred to me that he would miss much action. A finger injury? On that guy? The one who played just about all of last season with a
Today is about change. Mainly, change at the top of the United States of America's org chart. But there's one other little change I am pleased to let you know about. Starting right now, ESPN, TrueHoop,

I wrote about this yesterday, and linked to some still photos from the ad in which the NBA's biggest star joins the NFL. Now, with the blessing of State Farm, here is the full video of the LeBron James'
I assume. The founder of PeacePlayers International, and a friend of TrueHoop, has chosen the coldest day of the year to leave his (presumably heated) home in Washington D.C. to bum rides from strangers to Pitt
Joe Alexander's people promised yesterday that if he makes the NBA's Dunk Contest, he will deliver two never-before-seen, gimmick-free dunks. And I thought: What's wrong with gimmicks? I thought Dwi
I'm watching the Sixers try to hold their big lead against the Blazers. (It was 24 points at one point. Now about ten.) In the first half, 26% 3-point shooter Andre Iguodala had more made as many 3s than th
Over at Basketball.org, former Pacer and Piston head coach George Irvine is talking about the heartache and second-guessing that players and coaches go through after tough games. Then he wonders if referees fee
This Friday, the Utah Jazz will play in Memphis. When they do, in all likelihood, the Blazers will lose a fat chunk of cap space, and be on the hook for nearly $8 million of luxury tax this season. That&#
Inspired by last season's Celtics, the Cavaliers are working on being a close-knit team. There's an assumption that to make the All-Star team, your team has to be at least halfway decent. Histo
Anybody see the end of the first half in the Cavaliers vs. Bobcats last night? Below is the play-by-play of the last 16 seconds. (That's my highlighting. In fact -- very cool -- I just remembered that I can ev
This afternoon, the Clippers traded a conditional second-round pick to Toronto for Hassan Adams and cash. About two hours later, they announced that Adams had been waived. What? So they traded a pick for ... ca
Yesterday I got an e-mail about the Clippers cutting two players at a time when their bench is almost threadbare, thanks to injury. It seemed like a sure sign they might be involved in some kind of trade. So I
NBA commissioner David Stern rang the bell to open the stock market this morning (and then the Dow fell 80 points or so, but that's probably not his fault). CNBC's Darren Rovell caught up with him there, and
