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: Hoop Heads North. Personally, I'm a big fan of the Clippers' royal blue threads.
PF: The X's and O's. "What makes Wade so unique is that he gets to the rim in the least amount of strides and dribbles possible."
SF: The Sporting Blog. Shoals lists a few dark-horse rivalries worth keeping an eye on.
SG: Basketball Prospectus. Kevin Pelton evaluates the state of statistical analysis in basketball today.
PG: Thunder Rumblings. How Earl Watson has turned an obstacle into an opportunity.
6th: Ridiculous Upside. Gilbert Arenas retired from blogging; should our very own Rod Benson? (No!)
7th: NJNets.com. Marv Albert discusses the Nets' season in an exclusive interview with Ben Couch.
8th: Court Surfing. Wednesday night, Mike Taylor became the first rookie since Iverson in '96 to drop 35 points on the Knicks at MSG. Friday morning, Holly MacKenzie caught up with the LAC high-flyer.
9th: Hoops Addict. Does Clippers guard Eric Gordon have any shot at winning Rookie of the Year?
10th: Sports Radio Interviews. Ron Artest on the way he records his music: "Yeah, yeah, got a studio in the car. Sometimes you get multi-idea in the car, you get multi-ideas in the shower. That's the next step, put a studio in the shower."

    "What makes Wade so unique is that he gets to the rim in the least amount of strides and dribbles possible."
    Yeah, especially the dribbles part. Put the ball on the floor. You too, Lebron.

    No way E. Gordon gets rookie of the year! D. Rose got it locked!

    The Bulls' green alternates are fantastic, especially when they're wearing them as a slap in the face of Boston, and backing it up with a victory. March 17th was a great day!!!

    The Clippers' blue alts are the best uniforms in the league.

    those Clippers jerseys are pretty cool. Never seen 'em before.
    Am I the only one who like the Mavs' green or the Cavs yellow throwbacks?

    Your not the only one, the Cavs hardwood classics are just that: classic.
    Personally, I'd love to see them suit up in the 1994-1999 era of jerseys. Black with light blue splash.

    Rod Benson should retire from blogging. That's pretty much the thing I dislike most about this blog.

    EG is the best shooter from this years draft, but not rookie of the year. That award will go to D-Rose...BEEP, BEEP!
    I will say the Jazz baby blue road jerseys are the best alternates.

    Baby blues or not Deron Williams is going to have a short post season if Boozer can't get back on track.
    BDL, any noise for Jerry Sloan to finally get COY honors?
