Phil & Shaq
I asked Phil Jackson if he saw that Pat Riley benched Shaquille O’Neal less than a minute into the Heat’s game in New Jersey on Saturday night because O’Neal didn’t show properly on the Nets’ first pick-and-roll. Here was Jackson’s response: “He didn’t…

Zeke and Co. visit Detroit
The Knicks have become something of a joke in the media (not that I mind — it certainly makes my FanHouse duties easier), but they get to escape the pressure-cooker that is Madison Square Garden for a quick one-game road trip in Detroit before the holiday. Two schools of thought for this…

Rumor: Warriors Offered Al Harrington, Andris Biedrins, Monta Ellis + #18 Pick for KG
I don't know about you, but I'm still feeling the after effects of the Warriors not winning the Kevin Garnett sweepstakes and I don't see this topic dying easily for Warriors Nation- especially when The Boston Globe puts out pieces titled Warriors: Not Enough: Bid to land Garnett…

YouTube Tuesday: Enter the DJ
So we bid a fond farewell to Lasme, and we say a...um multilingual hello to DJ Mbenga. (Evidently he speaks French and Portuguese.) While it can be argued that it's never a bad thing to add a 7-footer on our squad, it remains to be seen how Nellie is going to implement DJ into our line-up. It's…

The W Column: Counting W's for Week 4
With the Dubs on a 2 game win streak and ending their doughnut start I'm happy to re-introduce The W Column and resume Counting W's with you. This week is fairly brutal for the Dubs with a pair of back-to-backs on the East Coast. If they can get a split I think Nellie and the crew…

RECAP: Warriors 108, Knicks 82- Lot to Like
During the Warriors 0-6 start to this season there's three things I didn't think I'd ever be able to say: The Warriors held a team to under 85 points and won a game with their defense. The Warriors have won more games on the road than at home at the Roaracle Arena so far this…

DBB t-shirt in the wild, and something to do with Facebook
That’s DBB reader Q Dog, reppin’ Detroit Bad Boys before a game during the Pistons’ recent stop in Portland. Honestly, this is the first time I’ve ever seen a picture of someone else wearing a DBB t-shirt, so I was pretty psyched when he passed this along. Check out his…

Well we all knew it was just a matter a time before this happened [Inside Bay Area]: Rookie center Kosta Perovic was sent down to the Bakersfield Jam, the Warriors' affiliate in the NBA Development League. The move had been talked about for weeks as the 22-year-old, inactive for five of the…

Sam Smith provides insight into Thomas' lack of minutes
Matt: I'll just piggy-back this diary since it's up and already has the discussion going. Fanhouse has a quality post on this as well. Denver's real good, but shouldn't be 20+ points better, and there's no doubting this was yet another shit effort by the Bulls, made worse by the fact that one of…

Two Changes Isiah Might Consider
So far the start of the 2008 season hasn’t been kind to New York. In fact it’s more like the new year has reared back and given the Knicks a swift kick in the groin. The Knicks have lost 8 of their first 10 games, the last two by a combined 58 points. While it’s [...]
