Had to post this a little congratulations to the San Francisco Rockdogs, my traveling basketball team / teammates. The Rockdogs took home the basketball gold medal in the “open” division by defeating Los Angeles United 41-35 in the championship game of the Gay Games.
A couple weeks ago, I picked up a couple Geeked Up t-shirts from the NBA store. I just couldn’t resist t-shirts with the a cartoon-styled Dikembe Mutombo with his signature finger wag and Larry Johnson in retro Charlotte Hornets jersey flashing his gold tooth.
Jeremy Lin was going to be traded this off-season. It’s been clear that the Houston Rockets were trying to deal the guard, along with center Omer Asik, to go after some big name free agent names.
I’m a few months late on this, but Jeff Teague’s killer crossover on Evan Turner is worth re-posting even after three months and even if you haven’t already seen it.
Every NBA team has a strategy and plan of attack, but the the on-court play rarely ever resembles the play when it’s drawn up on the whiteboard. The San Antonio Spurs is the NBA team that comes closest to that ideal.
As soon as I saw LeBron James come up lame due to severe cramping in one his legs, I knew the internet haters were going to pile on the next day.
This year’s NBA playoffs has been the best first round series in NBA history.
Jeremy Lin is still trying to figure out how to maximize his reduced role with the Houston Rockets.
Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling made some head-scratching racist comments toward African-Americans to his former girlfriend. The details of those comments were released yesterday (and the extended remix put out today).
I grew up in Michigan and I loved was crazy obsessed OBSESSED with the Detroit Pistons of the 1980s and early 1990s.
That’s a 7-5 basketball player dunking on a much smaller high school kid and trying to wrap his legs around him to further humiliate him. That’s funny.
With Derrick Gordon coming out today, the UMASS shooting guard adds his name to a growing list of gay male basketball players that have come out in the media.
If Jabari Parker isn’t drafted #1, then you’ve either been sold on “potential” or don’t recognize the skills it takes to be successful on the next level. Jabari Parker is about as sure a thing as it gets. If Parker declares for the 2014 NBA Draft, he should be taken #1 bar none.
Toward the end of the game against Ohio State yesterday, Nik Stauskas could be seen telling one of the Michigan coaches “get me the ball” during a timeout. Hey, if that’s what the Big Ten Player of the Year and only unanimous selection to the All-Big Ten Team wants, let’s see what happens.
Are they still talking about how great and tough Aaron Craft is? What about all the less than great things he did in the last 3 minutes against Michigan – why can’t we talk about that?
Here’s a action shot of Michigan’s big three of Caris LeVert, Glenn Robinson III and Nik Stauskas.
It’s been a while since I posted about Jeremy Lin, I guess my brain can only obsess over one Asian-American male at a time.
Nik Stauskas is a Canadian of Lithuanian heritage, so some of the classy, assy Illinois fans in the student section starting chanting “USA! USA! USA!”
Caris LeVert is a big reason why Michigan basketball has been successful this year. There, I said it. It needs to be said a lot more.
Today, I watched The Aaron Craft Show (season 4, ep. 25) also known as any Ohio State basketball game on national TV. Every time Ohio State ends up on ABC or ESPN, the announcers fall over each other for the chance to honor him verbally.
Michigan is now 5-0 in Big Ten thanks to Nik Stauskas’ big three pointer against #3 Wisconsin yesterday. The step back three came with Michigan clinging to a 68-67 lead with under a minute to play. To me, it wasn’t the three that should be noted, it was his cool demeanor
With Bill Laimbeer, Dennis Rodman, and Rick Mahorn, the Detroit Pistons of the late 1980s and early 1990s didn’t just beat you on the court, they beat you down on the court.
Jeremy Lin had 5 field goals last night — two three pointers and three reverse layups — in the Rockets’ win over the Memphis Grizzlies last night. Two of Lin’s reverse layups were just badazzxssssss – we’re talking reverse layups at full-speed, one-handed, acrobatic, adjust on the fly NBA shit.
Last night wasn’t Jeremy Lin’s best individual game statistically, but what he put together on both ends of the court is exactly what the Houston Rockets are looking from the point guard position.
