November 11, 2010 – Kevin Burke Last year, just about everything that could have possibly gone wrong for the Nets, did. It was Murphy’s Law at it’s finest. They stumbled across the finish line with a league worst 12 – 70 record while underachieving the entire way. Their poor play led to the firing of head [...]

November 11, 2010 – Allen Moll More than any other NCAA team, the Duke Blue Devils are hands down the most hated squad on the college hardwood. Maybe it’s the evil empire effect, similar to that of baseball’s New York Yankees, Coach K’s sometimes odd facial expressions, or maybe it’s just jealousy since the Blue [...]

November 11, 2010 – Dr. Anklesnap Meet Satnam Singh Bhamara of India. He’s not your average 14 year-old as he stands over 7 feet tall. He was always fairly tall for his age but grew an absolutely ridiculous 15 inches between the ages of 10 and 14. The unimaginable height is in his genes, as [...]

Oh yeah, and the second half of what I believe to be one of the league’s best duo’s for year’s to [...]

November 10, 2010 – Allen Moll The NBA is becoming a young man’s game. Even though the NBA changed the age eligibility rules a few years ago, many of the game’s best players are coming to the professional ranks after only a year or two of NCAA or European experience. Last year in our 1st [...]

November 9, 2010 – Allen Moll Back in the 80‘s and 90‘s it was the North Carolina Tarheels who kept plugging players onto NBA rosters like Michael Jordan, Rasheed Wallace, and Vince Carter. In the 2000‘s it was Duke and Connecticut who turned collegiate stars like Jay Williams, JJ Redick, and Rudy Gay into NBA [...]

November 9, 2010 – Kevin Burke As much as basketball fans were waiting for this season to begin, the start of each year isn’t always indicative of what will happen down the line.
