Was the US Men’s Basketball team picked to win or further justify the need to emphasize international players.

It is too early to entertain this thought, but if the US Men's basketball team cannot bounce back from their loss to France. It may be something to think about. Only time will tell. Until then, let's hope that team USA can get the job done and win the Gold!

Bias against the bigs needs to stop

Why is it difficult for fans to give great NBA Big Men their credit? The eye test, not having the ball in their hand all of the time, and a lack of appreciation for their role on the court are reasons that I have noticed.

Thoughts Processed: Why do we love Michael Jordan so much?

I recently got a new pair of Jordan's, and I was extremely happy! I started to think about how this guy hasn't played in 18 years. Why do I still get excited about his shoes?

The NBA season has been suspended, and NCAA Championship Week has been canceled with nearly all conferences making the decision to cancel their conference tournaments. The … Continue reading No jokes. Sports leagues taking unprecedented measures to stop the spread of the Coronavirus

James Harden is Earl “The Pearl” Monroe 2.0

At one point in time, Earl Monroe was considered the best one on one basketball player in the NBA. Today, the same is said about James Harden. Innovative is how I would describe both of their games. Another word would be unstoppable. Wizards with the basketball in their hands, Monroe had ball handling skills that … Continue reading James Harden is Earl “The Pearl” Monroe 2.0

Last night, we saw the best All-Star Game since the 2001 Eastern Conference comback led by Iverson

Last night's NBA All-Star game was exciting and the new format was a really dope concept. It was introduced to the league by veteran all-star guard Chris Paul. One of the changes included a $100,000 charity donation for every quarter won by Team Bron or Team Giannis. Easily helping to make it the best All-Star … Continue reading Last night, we saw the best All-Star Game since the 2001 Eastern Conference comback led by Iverson
