Is KG coming or not...

That is the big question that all of the fans and media are asking me constantly.  Today a trusted media member told me that KG had been planning on coming, but that now it was "a decision that would be made by the Celtics Organization" and not by Kevin Garnett.  I wouldn't even waste…

Kobe on (or over) Shaq

ORLANDO, FLA. — My personal assessment is that Kobe Bryant is so done with all things from the Shaquille O’Neal-Lakers era that he finds it a little annoying that the big man and the juicy topic are coming back around. Bryant wants to move on with his career and move forward with the…

GSoM Turns 2! - 2 Years of Being Unstoppable Baby!

I didn't want to detract from all the hype of Chris Webber's improbable reunion with Nellie, Jason Richardson's return home to the Roaracle, the hypeness that was GSoM Night III, and a Super Bowl for the ages, but this past weekend Golden State of Mind turned 2 years old.…

Sonics win; Watson earns first triple-double

The game had the kind of feel where you thought it might be a special night for Earl Watson. Watson said after the game that he felt sick this morning, but obviously the he shook that off and played his best game of the season, and perhaps his career. Watson has been shooting better and with more…

Well that was surprisingly entertaining

I had thought crappy Bulls team minus injured best players plus road game in Portland would equal shit sandwich. But no, tonight the team played with the spirit and vigor of the departed Viktor Khryapa, and made it a fun one. A loss, sure, but eh. (Side note: This "Veektor just hopped…

The Hornets beat the Suns

The magic is back, baby.The three game slide sobered us all up and made us forget that buzz the Hornets have been delivering so much this season, but tonight's game in Phoenix was probably the best bundle of funkiness yet. I can barely form a coherent thought right now because my brain has…

Watson playing well

Seattle point guard Earl Watson has played perhaps his best half of the season, as Seattle trails by a point at halftime, 49-48. Watson finished with 13 points, six assists and six rebounds and just one turnover in the opening half, and could be on his way to a triple-double if he gets enough…

Odom: Suns are “scared”
