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: The Sports Hernia. Ric Flair: "No, no, Machine, you're doing it all wrong. Wooooooooooooooooooo!"
PF: Spencer Haywood Blog, via FreeDarko. The ABA's 1970 MVP and Rookie of The Year has a blog. Read it.

8th: WaitingForNextYear. Lithuania can petition all they want; the Cavs say Big Z is not going to the Olympics.
9th: What Would Oakley Do? "A Boy Named Sasha" by Johnny Cash.
10th: From Deep. Grange: "As convenient as it is to dump on Bryant, what was the Zen Master thinking when the game was getting away from his team in the third quarter?"

    But, one thing TiricoSuave fails to mention is Kobe Bryant will never ever draft a player like Kwame Brown. Sorry Michael Jordan, that will remain on your resume forever, and noone will forget THAT performance by you. If it wasn't for you picking Kwame Brown with the overall # one pick, the guy may've otherwise never been drafted or played in the NBA at all. We have noone other than Michael Jordan himself to blame for that. And, that may go down as one of the worst, if not the absolute worst, performance in the history of the league.

    Older_than_moses_shaq, when leaving comments, reading skimming.
    "After that, when he retires again, and Kobe takes a front office position with the Bobcats, he will draft someone who will turn out to be a bigger bust than Adam Morrison, and that draftee will sob even harder and have a more creepy and even wispier mustache."
    Same premise.

    the biggest bust in nba history happened in the stapled center thursday night, when ther beasts from the east throttled them finesse west coast boys and took their hearts on their home courts, 35-14, not enough, 45-21 not enough, up by 20 in the 3rd quarter not enough, no joey crawford just right, whats the lakers record in the playoffs when joey crawford refs, its 2-0 vs the spurs, 1-0 vs the celtics, he probably did the deciding game in the utah series, still not enough. The class of the celts is shining brightly today. So is doc rivers outcoaching the zen master by a mile. the NBA is back to normal now, the celts are champs and the lakers are chumps. The b-ball hall of fame is in mass, for a reason, the celts perfected the game, i can name 8 or 9 celts better than kobe bryant, but i dont have to cause they dont deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as a rapist
