Mike James: The Angry Baller

After the Hornets acquired Mike James last week, my main man Toney Blare was telling me about this insane interview dude had with SLAM Radio back in 2006, so I went and tracked it down.You can listen to it over at SLAMonline.com. Keep in mind that this interview went down just after James had…

Gasol isn’t learning any power-forward yet

LOS ANGELES — You could argue that Phil Jackson, with the Lakers atop the West and humming along, should already be preparing his team to put its best playoff foot forward — which would mean making sure Pau Gasol is fully capable of producing at power forward once Andrew Bynum is back…

Primoz Brezec wanted to stay

Michael Grange of the Toronto Globe and Mail (who, incidentally, is becoming one of my favorite out-of-town beat writers to read) has a funny article about former Piston and new Raptors center Primoz Brezec: Can Brezec play? We don’t know. Can he talk? Absolutely, and the Slovenian big man does…

Pistons are in Denver

It’s Chucky! Sadly, he’s still sidelined with a hernia and won’t be playing tonight — since the game actually already started (my bad), I’ll keep this short. Leave your thoughts in the comments, for those of you not stuck Montana/Idaho State.

The national media meets the Zoo Crew

Yahoo’s Johnny Ludden has the play by play: Johnson exploded off the court. O’Neal met him in mid-flight, extended his right arm into Johnson’s chest and sent the Detroit Pistons forward back from where he came. As he hit the floor with a thud, Johnson felt the wind suck out of his…

Pistons take on Shaq, Suns

The Pistons kick off their four-game swing out West with a nationally-televised game against the new-look Suns. Does Shaq have enough left in the tank to take the Suns to the Finals? Right now I’m less concerned about that as I am wondering if the Pistons have enough big men left on the…

Will Flip land in Boston?

The Celtics might want Flip Murray. And Celtics fans are not amused.

Pistons look for revenge against Bucks

After getting destroyed by the Bucks for three and a half quarters on Wednesday, the Pistons will get their chance at revenge tonight at the Palace (8pm, TV20). The Pistons needed a 19-4 run late in the fourth quarter of that game just to make the final score look respectable — here’s…

Lee 4:37

“And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.” John 4:37 (KJV) The Knicks routed a Bobcats team last night that was without Gerald Wallace at the beginning of the game and lost Jason Richardson in the second quarter. The eventual 24 point victory was hardly…

Still waiting for Dale

From Krista Jahnke’s Free Press blog: The thing is, teams have until Saturday to waive players, and team president Joe Dumars is playing a waiting game, eyeing that waiver wire to see if any other big men get released. That means it could be nearly another week before anything happens. Former…

The Hornets beat the Suns

So we lose to the Wizards on Monday, then trounce the Suns on Wednesday. Ah yes, welcome to the NBA my friends, where everything makes about as much sense as a bottle of pizza. Tonight the Hornets completed a season sweep of the Suns, winning by a score of 120-103 ( box | recap | standings ). It…

Bulls escape with win, Boylan escapes with my sanity

That was a must-win tonight, if you consider the playoff 'push' worth pursuing (and I do, cause...why not?). Philly and Atlanta won, and the Bulls were against an inferior team that they maddeningly let hang around for 3 quarters. But they did pull out the win, and while nobody played…

Ridnour out

Luke Ridnour did not start the second half because of tightness in in right hamstring, and will not return. Mickael Gelabale started the second half at point guard for Seattle. Expect to see Damien Martin or perhaps Adrian Griffin to play some point guard in the second half.
