Defending the Stats: Why Box Score Numbers Work-... →
This deftly written article by Kevin Pelton examines the value of advanced stats and box scores. In case you live in a cave, this all got started because the stat guys hate Melo and the old-school basketball guys love him and everyone wants to know his true value. Me personally, I think you trade for him if given the offer pretty much no matter what you have to give up for him. I think almost...

Um, Santonio Holmes
In a non basketball related post, that TD catch was as impressive if not more so than the Super Bowl winning catch… my god…

“What should I do?”
– -LeBron James…. NOT in a Nike commercial, but rather to Dwayne Wade about playing against Chicago. According to the ESPN article, Wade responded with, “We’ve got a good enough team to make sure that before you get back on the court that you’re healthy [enough] to be who you...

BULLS BEAT THE HEAT
What started as another boring game for the Chicago Bulls (when I was at the Nets game on New Years Eve, the United Center got loudest when the Coffee beat the Doughnut on the jumbotron in the third quarter…), the fourth quarter against the Miami Heat was AWESOME: DWade playing out of his mind, hitting ridiculous 3’s, and Rose driving the lane and getting the fouls that analysts say he...

“Thus, I’ve often wondered if the NBA would benefit tremendously by...”
– John Hollinger I think any die hard fan could teach most of these classes. This also exemplifies why I love reading John Hollinger more than anyone else who writes about the NBA. (whole article available if you are an ESPN Insider)

So the Heat just lost again...
You know, with LeBron out of the lineup, the Heat look awfully familiar… Well, I guess it’s better to lose while living in South Beach than Cleveland. Also, I think that Blake Griffin should be traded on a nightly basis to always play the Heat. I just really want to see him develop that rivalry with Chalmers. I just really hate that guy…

Brian Scalabrine
The United Center was just chanting, “SCAL-A-BRIN-E,” including Noah and Boozer, trying to get him into the game. HI-LARIOUS. UPDATE: He’s entered the game and the United Center went NUTS. Every time he touches the ball, the place is cheering like crazy. UPDATE x2: No, like EVERY TIME he touches the ball. UPDATE x3: He scored the last Chicago points. Roof just came off the...
