The 10-man rotation, starring Iverson in 'Auto-Tune the Rants'

By J.E. Skeets

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: Kissing Suzy Kolber. I believe I just found my new ringtone.
PF: Macleans.ca. Bill Russell on his big ring, his favorite coach and why he won't visit the Hall of Fame.
SF: HP. Matt Moore begs the Grizzlies not to completely destroy what little is left of their franchise.
SG: lowposts.com. Wow. Drazen Petrovic had his own video game? Has anyone ever actually played it?
PG: Black Athlete Sports Network. A comprehensive look at the first seven picks of the Draft.
6th: The Oklahoman. Harlem Globetrotters "select" Oklahoma's Taylor Griffin with top pick in '09 Draft.
7th: Khandor's Sports Blog. The Raptors should trade down to try and grab a player like Derrick Brown.
8th: TheHamSandwich. A paean to Brandon Jennings and the Draft, and why the Wizards'll screw it up.
9th: Docksquad Sports. Vik Chokshi interviews NBA hopeful, guard Brandon Ewing.
10th: Supersonicsoul. "Former Sonic Tom Chambers, perhaps the blackest white man ever to emerge from the Great State of Utah, co-owns a ranch in North Ogden with his brother, Rob. And while most days things are all hunky-dory down on the farm, what with the cow-milking, grazing, and whatnot, there is trouble a-brewin': Peacock trouble."

    10 man rotation? Not a 5 man rotation....not a 5 man rotation....not a 5 man rotation, but 10? Now how silly is that? We're sitting here talkin about a 10 man rotation when only 5 can play at a time. I know I'm suppose to be the franchise of the team and it's important to get everyone involved, but a 10 man rotation? Not 5.....not 5.....not the 5 man rotation I'm use to being a part of, but 10? We talkin about 10? We sitting here talkin about a 10 man rotation....not 5.....not 5, but 10. Not the 5 man rotation where I leave everything on the court, but 10. How silly is that?
