Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was screaming about that for years, and Patrick Ewing has been very patiently waiting his turn. He’s been the assistant coach in Orlando for years and [...]

May 8, 2012 – The Hoop Doctors Just when I thought I couldn’t have any more respect for C-Webb, he addresses the Blake Griffin and ‘flop city’ situation head on, during the Clippers-Grizzlies broadcast last night.
