Thomas to start, conversation with Barry

Seattle coach P.J. Carlesimo said he will start Kurt Thomas tonight at center, mainly so he can play him a little over 20 minutes, with a planned six-minute stint in each quarter. Carlesimo also wants to match Thomas up against Duncan at the beginning of the game. Chris Wilcox (sprained left…

Double Dose... Jackson and Pietrus get Animated with Tony.psd

Note to self: Draw more Stephen Jackson! After going through my database, I just realized I only have 1 drawing of him! That needs to change. It's only fitting to set off a drawing session with the Dubz man of the hour Stephen Jackson. Since his return, The W's have gone 4-1 on the road and just…

RECAP: Warriors 100, 76ers 98: And his name is ... Azubuike!

Final Boxscore Wow! What a game! I haven't seen a game that exciting for awhile. Last night's overtime victory in Philly ended our East Coast road trip, our best road trip in 30 years (4 and 1). Though this was the 2nd game of a back to back, I was a little disappointed we didn't run the tables on…

Minor update on Billups and McDyess

No big surprise, but the Pistons figure to be shorthanded again tonight. From Chris McCosky’s Detroit News blog: Chauncey Billups looked more game-ready at shootaround today than Antonio McDyess did, but both said they want to wait until game time to decide whether they will dress for the…

You, Me and Ronald Dupree

Elie Seckbach always cracks me up, especially when he’s talking to the Pistons. I’m guessing that’s from the Pistons’ recent trek through Elie’s neck of the woods at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Other random links: My latest from HOOPSWORLD, taking stock…

Open Game Thread # 12: Bulls at Toronto Raptors

[Thanks to wjb1492 for today's game thread. -Matt] I don't even know where to start, or what's worth saying again about the team.  The Bulls' Saturday loss to the Knicks (the Knicks!) was yet another display of bad passing and poor shooting.  It's not as if the Knicks played well,…
