Somehow ... The Series Is TIED?
As we wait for Mark Cuban to sleep off what is almost certainly an enormous (and well-earned) hangover, we turn our morning attentions to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. (No offense to the Mavericks, of course; we are one step closer to the sublime possibility of David Stern handing the ...
Hey, These Playoffs Are Getting Kind Of Fun
If you're one of those cynical souls who doesn't take Rasheed Wallace's word as gospel, we should be in for quite an intriguing evening of basketball. In the first game, we get to find out if this will be a forgettable early chapter in LeBron James' playoff career or if becomes something unique, spe...
Game Three To The LeBrons
LeBron James racked up a triple double, and it seemed like all of it came within the last four minutes of the game, as the Cavs finally took a game from the Pistons, 86-77. The stretch run of this one resembled an old NBA Live videogame where you can just take one unstoppable player and dominate. ...
Another Great Sideline Reporter Snafu
This guy right here is Ryan Field. He is not to be confused with Ryan Field, the football stadium for the Northwestern Wildcats. Field is the sideline "reporter" for Fox Sports Detroit, and during last night's Detroit-NOOCH game, he "reported" on a flood in the NOOCH locker room....

Darko Meets Free Darko, Worlds Collide
We meant to point this out earlier this week, but, well, we were driving home one day, and the cops pulled us over, and we'd had this friend over for Thankgiving ... well, it's a long complicated story. Anyway, it turned out that, thanks to Henry Abbott at True Hoop — who messes up this whole blog...
Why Your City Sucks
Looks like the Maloof brothers got a hold of the Jumbotron controls while drunk again. In what the team says will be a regular feature, when the Pistons were introduced last night, the Kings ran a feature about the city of Detroit on the scoreboard. You can probably guess what it was: horrible vis...
Welcome Back, Artest! Glad To Have Ya!
That Ron Artest is back for a whole season is destined to be one of the sublime joys of the upcoming NBA season; that he vows to be as crazy as ever makes us want to get an NBA League Pass, stat. From an interview with Dave D'Alessandro in today's Newark Star-Ledger:...
