Inside Enemy Territory with “Indy Cornrows”

Last week Kinnon ran an Inside Enemy Territory with Tom from Indy Cornrows and with a second game in less than a week Kinnon graciously allowed me to step in and ask Tom a couple of questions that were bouncing around in my head after watching the game earlier this week. 1. Rebuilding is always tough [...]

Top Three Fantasy Performers - 02/27

A game filled evening in the NBA on Wednesday night showcased some keen matchups. Bibby’s home debut against his old team, Lebron vs. the big three in Boston and a tale of the top two seeds in the west. It certainly was a great night of basketball. Here are the top three-fantasy performers from Wednesday [...]

Lost In The Shuffle

You would have thought a 29-year-old former All-Star signing with a team who recently traded for a hall of fame point guard (on top of finishing last season with the best record in the NBA) would have gotten it’s share of time in the national spotlight… right?

If you just look at the score of the Los Angeles Lakers-Portland Trail Blazers game the other night - 96-83 - you’d think, oh the Lakers routed the Blazers. Not true.

A New Way To Kill A Community?

The New Jersey Nets move to Brooklyn is still in for a fight. In an interesting, if little-known (outside of New York City) news tidbit, New Jersey Nets owners Bruce Ratner and Shaun Carter (Jay-Z), along with Barclay’s Bank of England, are being sued by legendary DJ Clive Campbell (DJ Kool Herc) and a Brooklyn-based [...]

Inside Enemy Territory with “Wolves Watch”

It hasn’t been all that long since the Timberwolves and the Raptors locked horns, but something usually manages to change the second time teams meet. Adjustments are made and players remember their previous battles. It’s often a race to see which team will adjust first. With the upcoming game in hand, we sat down with Scott [...]

Top Three Fantasy Performers - 02/26

Eight games on schedule and some of them were dandies to watch. What happened to the Rockets? The news about Yao must have carried over into the game as they looked horrible. On the other hand Miami dominated Sacramento to finally win a game. But in the fantasy world, let’s see who reigned supreme on [...]
