    Where will Reggie Theus be coaching in 09-10?

    I liked Reggie as a coach and think he'd be a great leader for my Alma Mater...go Cats!

    Who will the Kings sign with the MLE in 09?

    I know it's not the MLE, but GP did give Garcia a 5-year/30 mill contract (5th year team option - whew!) that starts next season. Going off track, the Kings might cut payroll this season as they're not selling seats too well...financially, the organization has to be hemmoraghing cash at this...

    Blazers talking to Kings?

    So I guess this is the possible result we'd have, should everything rumored work out: http://games.espn.go.com/nba/features/traderesult?players=556~575~1726~849~2448~510~3417~454~802&teams=14~22~22~14~6~23~23~23~23&te=&cash= It'd be nice if we could get a 1st rounder from Dallas...but if...

    Dallas Interested in Beno?

    Wow, that would be fantastic if we could unload his contract. I'm surprised that anyone would take him at this point...but if Petrie can pull it off, salud! Definitely don't mind having Stackhouse ride the bench for the next year and a half...much better situation than Beno assuming the...

    If you ran the Suns what would you do?

    First of all, I'd find a way - somehow - to get rid of cheapskate owner Robert Sarver. I blame him for the Suns not winning it all - for years, they traded away great draft picks and kept the bench thin. When you have a window like the Suns did, go over the cap for chissake! That being said...

    Memphis Grizzlies fire coach

    Like what was said after Theus got canned: "It's the players, stupid." I thought Ivy would have done better last season...but this season is on par for expectations. Good luck finding a decent coach who'll want to fill his shoes.

    Donte Greens first Bighorns game

    True, the D-League is stocked with good college players...but the league culture/style needs work. Players play to pad stats, play little defense, and little team ball. Of course, you can't blame them, they're trying to get a job! I don't know why Donte was recalled, maybe because it was an...

    I would rank Lawson and Collison a bit higher but an informative article nonetheless... We are definitely in the market for a PG, as bad as this draft may be, there is a bright side...

    Memphis Sacramento

    I'd do the Conley-for-Beno trade in a heartbeat. Major reason: contract. I really, really, hoped that Petrie wouldn't give Beno the now-standard-fare full 5-year MLE, and he did. Beno's playing a lot worse than I thought he would, too, and my expectations were pretty low for him coming into...

    Donte Greens first Bighorns game

    Really, really needs to work on his ballhandling and moving w/o the ball to make any kind of impact beyond his jumpshot, which is streaky at best. Once he gets some D-League seasoning, he'll really benefit from Coach Carril's training.

    Watch Blake Griffin on espn

    Both Pittman and Griffin are listed at 6'10", yet Griffin looks to be 2-3 inches shorter than Pittman. Could mean this dude's no bigger than Kenny Thomas. So many PF's fail to make an impact because of size...scouts always say, "yeah, he's undersized, but..." People fail to realize that guys...

    Send Greene to the D League

    The problem I have with sending Greene to the D-League is that he probably won't improve much. Specifically, Greene tries to score the way he knows how - jumpshots. And he doesn't do much else - this was the knock on him during draft day, and he fell to the bottom because of his perceived...

    Trades! Get On It Petrie!

    My problem with executing a trade right now is the team is caught up with a culture of losing. I wouldn't want a Gerald Wallace per se to come in here and catch that bug. I'm content waiting until the trade deadline or the summer. However, this team is very, very difficult to watch...

    Has Petrie's time with the Kings passed?

    Geoff's got a great eye for talent, but during the past few years he's displayed a poor business sense. Who knows, maybe the Maloofs got involved, maybe there's factors that we don't know about...but the proof is in the pudding. Geoff hasn't signed a quality free agent in years or made any...

    Beno and Brad - Got to go

    The length is the biggest problem here. Say we do get that dreamy PG and he's able to make an impact quickly. How well will Beno come off the bench? I'm worried about that particular. Is anyone going to want to trade for a, hypothetically, 3-year, $15 million dollar contract that is...

    Re: jumpshot, what I'm seeing is he brings the ball far behind his head, kicks one of his legs out, and actually twists his body...just looks really weird. Then again, mine is probably worse, that's why I watch it & don't play it. He does have a shoot-first mentality. Now I'll be the first to...

    Beno and Brad - Got to go

    Giving Beno a 5-year/30 million contract was a bad idea that most of us fans agreed upon before it was inked. He's great at penetrating to the basket, has a nice jumper, but that's about it. He looked good last year because: 1.) He was a marked "scrub" picked up off of waivers, and surprised...

    "Highlight" reel of Brandon Jennings vs. TAU (remember Tiago Splitter?). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Twl2F5iB7sA I'm no scout, but that is an UGLY jumpshot. This highlight reel reminds me of Sebastian Telfair, undersized shoot-first point guard who can't shoot (albeit with flashy passing...

    j rich to the suns

    Good for the Suns, they needed a better scoring option...won't put them where they want to be, but they'll be better. Michael Jordan =GPOAT, but continues to make poor personnel decisions. Bad trade for Charlotte - declining/underperforming/scrub talent (Bell/Diaw/SS), and limited financial...
