Ball Don't Lie - NBA


A look around the league and the web that covers it. It's also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren't always listed in order of importance. That's for you, dear reader, to figure out.

C: 48Minutes. Digging deeper for a comparison to rookie Anthony Randolph yields a very interesting list.
PF: Blazer's Edge. An epic seven-hour long interview with Trail Blazers General Manager Kevin Pritchard
SF: SI.com. What teams are making the most and least of their payrolls? Ian Thomsen tells all.
SG: You Been Blinded. A look at the NBA's Twitter All-Stars, starring Shaq as the "King of Twitteronia."
PG: D.C. Sports Bog. I'm only linking to this pic of LeBron and Ovechkin because I'm a "Crab apologist."
6th: Mouthpiece Blog. Take notice, LeBron: This trick shot is better than your trick shot.
7th: Hardwood Houdini. Celtics-Lakers, yes. Celtics-Pistons, sure. But Celtics-Hawks? Is that a rivalry?
8th: Hooped Up. Stick 'em in your earhole: The Top 5 NBA theme songs of all-time.
9th: Timberwolves Press. Did the Wolves copy that Vote Mr. Love glass cleaner idea from a fan's site?
10th: Sports On My Mind. DWil: "Inconsistent officiating, an unusual number of play stoppages due to foul calls, and twice the number of free throws attempted in a game are the three easiest ways to shoot a game over its projected point total." Did that happen last night in Denver?

    The Timberwolves fan site had that concept back in January, http://blog.timberwolvespress.com/2009/01/18/11809-wolves-comic-2.aspx . Pretty ironic if you ask me that the Wolves used the exact same thing.

    I don't know if the Celtics and Hawks are rivals, but they certainly have a lot of history against one another: Red Auerbach coached the Hawks in their first season in the Tri-Cities, they met in the NBA finals 4 out of 5 years from 1957 - 1961, the Hawks traded Bill Russell to the C's for Ed Macauley and Cliff Hagan (all Hall of Famers), they've met in the playoffs 6 other times, and the lauded trade that sent Antoine Walker from Atlanta back to Boston in 2005.

    Wow. These comments are very elightened.
    Anyways, I like to think of Anthony Randolph like a shapeshifter, or changeling, like that guy...you ever see that TV show Manimal?

    ***Lebron James*** he deserves the MVP as much as I deserve a third testicul to better dot the eyes on my call girls face. It is only fair, the man is dynamic he alone brought the sport back for a while there it was like a Greek bath house. If you are asking yourself who is the Kills-souls making generalized assumption’s about a teams before regular season start you’d better step back and re-evaluate your life right now! I wouldn’t be posting this if I didn’t know what I am talking about (tee-hee).
