Sonics-Warriors pregame notes

Seattle still is not healthy and only has 11 guys available tonight. Luke Ridnour will start in place of Earl Watson, who did not make the trip. And Nick Collison will start in place of Chris Wilcox, who is sick but in uniform and will play limited minutes. So the starting lineup is Ridnour,…

Phil Jackson on Kobe’s MVP candidacy

LOS ANGELES — Cleveland coach Mike Brown is saying it’s should already be a done deal that LeBron James wins his first NBA MVP award. But Kobe Bryant’s coach — unlike in past seasons when the Lakers weren’t among the best in the West — is right there behind his…

YouTubeTuesday: The College Baron

I was surfing around YouTube last night I thought I'd post a couple highlights I found from Baron's college years. Just for fun. The first is one a dribble fake that I'm sure all Warrior fans are familiar with - the behind the back dribble in the open court back to the same hand. The thing…

RECAP: Warriors 110, Hawks 117 - Blame it on the Weekend

The Warriors are déjà vu like Beyonce Knowles.   Its like the Warriors were re-living a game played last year. After beating one of the best teams in the league, the Warriors let the lowly Atlanta Hawks take them to the house.  Granted the Warriors were without,…

No Movin' On Up + Rumor: Warriors Interested in Brent Barry

Well this year's NBA trading deadline has come and gone faster than you can say "She keeps on passssssssssssssssin me by!" (shout out to the Pharcyde) and the Warriors did... nothing. Absolutely nothing. I have to say it's pretty disappointing. The Warriors are only 5 games…

Pistons swap Primoz Brezec for Juan Dixon

The Pistons didn’t completely sit on their hands at the deadline. From the DetNews: They sent Primoz Brezec to Toronto for guard Juan Dixon. Dixon, 29, averaged 4.3 points and 11.8 minutes in 36 games for the Raptors this season. He was a first-round pick (17th overall) by Washington in 2002…

Dale or Jamaal?

Expect Dale Davis or Jamaal Magloire soon. My personal preference is Davis since he’s a better defender (and has a name easier to spell), but how much rust has settled in? He turns 39 in March and hasn’t played all year. Magloire, on the other hand, is about nine years younger and…

How much do you want the No. 1 seed?

SEATTLE — With Phoenix’s 30-point loss to the Pistons (see, I told you they’re the team to beat in the East), the Lakers moved into sole possession of the Western Conference’s top spot entering this game in Seattle. San Antonio will undoubtedly be a contender for that No. 1…

The Wizards beat the Hornets

DeShawn Stevenson delivered the final dagger with his buzzer-beating three-pointer tonight. That shot cost the Hornets a game they simply did not deserve to win. There we were, at full health, just two days removed from being on top of the Western Conference, playing a sub-500 team missing a pair…

The Lakers’ future

We’re all caught up in what the Lakers could do this season. Let’s stop for a moment and think about what they could do beyond that. In both cases, Jordan Farmar is a major element. Is Lamar Odom? Hmm. Check out my weekly column about the Lakers’ future.
