Will the Rockets match Carl Landry?
As you’ve no doubt heard, the Charlotte Bobcats have a signed offer sheet from Carl Landry. With Landry being a restricted free agent, the Rockets have 7 days to decide whether or not to match the offer of 3 years at $3 million a year (last year being a club option). Here’s what the Bobcat’s [...]

Round 1
Celtics def. Hawks 4-0
Boston is amazing, and deep. Atlanta is a good young team, but they
don’t really have the depth, talent, skill, or experience that is
needed in the playoffs. The Celtics have all of that. They might win
one game, but they’ll probably be swept, especially since the Celtics’
starters are rested.

Houston Rockets Season Finale and My Birthday
Chuck Hayes & Free Throws
This could (and should) probably get it’s own post, but watching the two FT’s that Chuck Hayes shot last night was just painful. It’s like watching Rick Ankiel try to throw a curve. I turned 27 yesterday, and I’ve probably been watching basketball pretty regularly now for 15 years. Never once [...]

Is your NBA Announcer a homer?
A user over at Flickr has compiled his opinions on a big percentage of the hometown play-by-play and color announcers for NBA teams. He put them into a chart that ranks them on Homerism/Objectivity and NBA knowledge or lack thereof. Check it out and let me know what you think? Wrong? Right? Opinions on people [...]
Is Tracy McGrady a Hall of Famer?
I was cruising around Yahoo Answers today and found a question that I’ve heard a lot of people ask and debate:
“Is Tracy McGrady a Hall of Famer?”
I don’t try to pretend that I’m not biased, and so I normally just say yes to this instantly. I decided to really look at it and break it [...]
Bruce Bowen: Dirtiest player since John Stockton?
So many analysts and bloggers have been talking defense lately. We’re coming up on the playoffs, and the focus is starting to shift from Lebron and Kobe’s 40 point games to good lock down defense and winning. John Hollinger’s All-Defense article today had his picks for his All-Defense team. I was happy to see Shane [...]
