Numbers and D. Wade rumors
2008-06-04 10:40:00 Upon release of the numbers of test results and drills at the NBA draft combine in Orlando, I was surprised at some of the numbers, but wasn’t to concerned. Michael Beasley who had been listed from 6′8 to 6′10 measured in at 6′7 without shoes, and 6′8 ¼ with. What does that mean? Absolutely nothing really. He has ...

NBA Slam Dunk Competition
2008-02-17 10:14:00 In case you missed it, here were the best dunks from the 2008 NBA Slam dunk Competition. I liked the Dwight Howard off the back of the backboard the best. The Super Man was not even really a dunk.
Powe Puts It Back For Win
2008-02-09 05:08:00 In Kevin Garnett’s return to Minnesota, the Boston Celtics stunned the Minnesota Timberwolves at the final buzzer tonight to pull out an 88-86 win at the Target Center. Minnesota’s Marko Jaric missed a three and Craig Smith ran down the rebound and he threw the ball out to the top of the key. But instead of ...

Minnesota: Trade Jaric and Craig Smith To Denver
2008-01-18 20:47:00 Minnesota doesn’t need Marko Jaric (but Adriana Lima does). His contract is expensive ($25 million left including this season). By the time the rest of the T-wolves hit their stride, Jaric (currently 29) is going to be too old to be of any use. Finally, Jaric’s not really known as a locker-room leader. He just ...

A Win is a Win
2007-12-18 15:40:00 Recap | Boxscore | Video | Photos Last night’s Heat/Wolves game was one of the worst played games I have ever seen in my 29 years of being alive. Although the Heat came out on top with a 91-87 victory, due in large part to a flurry of Zo offensive rebounds late in the game, ...

Wolves Want To Dump Jaric, Howard, And Walker
2007-10-26 16:41:00 The Wolves are serious as hell about rebuilding they are pretty much trying to dump any old guy on their team for young players and draft picks. The Wolves would love to dump Walker, Howard, Jaric if they can find some takers. Walker makes $8.5 million this year and $9.3 million next year. Jaric has ...
Genius
2007-10-25 15:39:00 Ok. Yesterday we were successful in making a significant trade this off-season. The deal sending Antoine Walker, Michael Doleac, Wayne Simeon, and a future conditional draft pick for Ricky Davis and Mark Blount. Immediately we have improved our offense. But here is what makes the move even more productive: Pat Riley freed himself from Walker’s abomination ...
Heat and Wolves Make A Deal
2007-10-25 00:42:00 The Heat traded Antoine Walker, Wayne Simien, Michael Doleac, and a first round pick for Mark Blount and Ricky Davis. The Wolves were looking to get rid of some players they felt would be bad influences on their young team. They were reluctant to take Walker but he has two years left on his deal ...

Heat Persuing Ricky Davis Trade?
2007-09-27 23:40:00 From the Miami Herald (Herald.com): The Garnett trade left Minnesota with a surplus of shooting guards and small forwards — two positions where the Heat has been looking to add depth throughout the offseason. The Heat’s interest likely centers on swingmen Ricky Davis and Trenton Hassell, veterans who apparently don’t fit in Minnesota’s plans to rebuild around ...
Birthday Wishes and Repossesions
2007-08-22 22:07:00 Well, on a slightly lighter note; I thought I’d put it out there that it happens to be staff writer Ben Ellingsworth’s birthday today. I’m not going to tell you how old he is, but as usual, nothing is going on in the basketball world today as is nothing in Ben’s life. LOL. So if ...
Sad Death Brings to an End a Sad Life [J. Mark English]
2007-08-22 18:19:00 This is a tragic end to the life of Eddie Griffin:Former Minnesota Timberwolves forward Eddie Griffin died last week when his sport utility vehicle collided with a freight train in a fiery crash, the Harris County medical examiner's office said Tuesday. Investigators used dental records to identify Griffin, 25, who began his tumultuous pro career with the Houston Rockets in 2001. He was waived by the Timberwolves in March. "The cause of death and manner of death, which also includes toxicology results, is pending," said Beverly Begay, chief investigator for the Harris County Medical Examiner's office. Griffin, a five-year veteran who was the No. 7 pick in the 2001 NBA draft, had battled alcohol problems since coming out of Seton Hall. He was suspended by the league for five games in January for violating its anti-drug program. "Basketball was never an issue with him. He needed more life lessons, and unfortunately he was never able to reach his potential," former Timbe...

KG Trade Done, Celtics Still Have Holes
2007-08-01 01:31:00 KG is officially a Celtic giving them and instant Eastern Conference powerhouse but they need some serious help, they don’t have a bench at all. Word is Danny Ainge has been given the option to go over the Cap to bring in more guys and their are some quality players left like PJ Brown, Brevin ...
KG To Boston
2007-07-30 23:13:00 The KG to Boston deal is heating up and many sources are saying it is nearly done. The projected deal would send KG to Boston for Al Jefferson, Ryan Gomes, Gerald Green, Sebastian Telfair, Theo Ratliff, and a first round pick. The trade would leave the Celtics with a starting five of Rajon Rondo, Ray ...

Legit Summer League Players
2007-07-17 21:57:00 A lot of people bash the NBA summer league because their is always a player or two that kills and gets peoples hope up thinking they will do it in the regular season, but they don’t. Darius Miles had a few great summer leagues in the past but he hasn’t been much of a player ...
With the number 7 pick in the 2007 NBA Draft the Minnesota Timberwolves sel
2007-07-16 16:54:00 Corey Brewer. Let me lead off this post by saying that I stand completely behind McHale et al.’s selection of Corey Brewer. He was, in my opinion, the best available player when we picked. However, I was a little surprised that we didn’t make a draft day trade for a shoot-first point guard. It just seems to be what the Wolves like to do. I kept expecting to hear “there has been a trade. The Wolves have sent Corey Brewer to Atlanta for Acie Law IV and future considerations or cash.” One of the worst moves in team history, right behind Ndudi Ebi and the Joe Smith wink-wink ink-ink, was trading one of my favorite players of all-time, Ray Allen, to Seattle on draft day for Stephon Marbury. The Timberwolves followed the same blueprint last year when we made a draft day trade with Portland sending Brandon Roy there for Randy Foye and cash. For the record, I still support the trade last year, but it looks like a trend. A lot of people like to ju...
Who Will Win In This 4 Team Deal
2007-06-26 14:55:00 A lot of quality players are involved in the 4 team KG deal that is being talked about. Even though they are still talking about the deal and we don’t know all the players and picks that will be involved, I still want to look at how it affects each team. The Lakers will add KG ...
KG Is Smart And Stupid
2007-06-22 19:45:00 Everyone knows the Eastern Conference is weak so it is easy to call Garnett stupid for not wanting to go to Boston. With Garnett, Pierce, Green, West, Rando, and whoever they could get with their midlevel exception the Celtics could go far in the East. Garnett would easily be more successful in Boston than he ...
KG Doesn?t Want To Play For Boston, Deal Off
2007-06-22 00:41:00 The deal that was on the table that would have sent KG to the Celtics is off the table now because KG says he doesn’t want to play for the Celtics. Due to the fact that he can opt out after the 2008 season it would be a big mistake if they traded a ton ...
KG To Boston?
2007-06-20 20:04:00 If the rumors about what the Celtics offered the Wolves are true, then the Wolves are idiots. Rumor is they were offering the number 5 pick, Telfair, Jefferson, Green, and two more guys. Why in the world wouldn’t the Wolves that? The Wolves already have solid guys like Juwan Howard, Ricky Davis, and Foye. Adding ...
