Western Conference Surprises This article was written by Big Al McMordie.  You can pick up his NBA Picks here. While everybody is anticipating another Spurs/Pistons showdown for the NBA title, a couple of other teams have surprised this season. Let's take a closer look at the overachieving Mavericks and Clippers. The Mavericks have been very good for several seasons now, but they are not perceived as being an elite team by the public, simply because they have a history of flaming out in the playoffs. It was a label.San antonio spurs nba finals home game 1 (date may change) tickets.

2007-08 NBA Worsties: Part 4 Donyell Marshall's wardrobe malfunction: Marshall amused his teammates and horrified fans in attendance when he took off both his warm-up shirt and jersey while subbing into a game. Good times. Now watch Lebron go abso.lutely bonkers over it. I mean, sweet breakdancing Jesus, he was laughing so hard you'd think that Marshall had just gotten a pie in the face and then slipped comically on a banana peel. Reggie Miller invents a word: On January 31, 2008, Miller coined a term during the third. NBA.

2007-08 NBA Worsties: Part 1 San antonio spurs nba finals home game 1 (date may change), Note of apology: I misplaced Wild Yams' submission regarding Smush Parker and wrote my own entry about it. Mine has been replaced by his. Sorry, Yams. There were way too many Worsties from the recently deceased NBA season to fit them all into one post, unless you happen to enjoy blog articles that are 20 pages long. So I'm going to break this baby up into multiple posts over the course of the week. Here's the first one. It runs from the preseason through November only, so never fear: Those.

More Than Just a Team? Tickets, Hi guys (and gals?)! Sorry I've been on radio silence for awhile. I had a busy week and wasn't able to break away to write any. I'm writing this article from St. Kitts, an island off of Puerto Rico, where I'll be for the next month (don?t get too jealous, it's a total 3rd worlder out here?). Anyhow, I was toying with an idea for an article in my head, a sort of devil's advocate piece on moving the Clippers to Seattle to be the new SuperSonics, when Baron Davis decided to come to town. Needless.

Memorable Moments and Milestones in Sonics' History San antonio spurs nba finals home game 1 (date may change) ticket broker, As a Cleveland Browns fan who lost his team in 1995 and had to endure three years in NFL exile followed by nearly a decade of on field ineptitude, I have great empathy for Seattle SuperSonics' fans. Here is a look back at some key moments from each of the 41 seasons of Sonics' basketball: 1967-68: The Sonics posted a 23-59 record in their first season, finishing fifth in the six team Western Division; the San Diego Rockets, also an expansion team, went 15-67. Walt Hazzard-a 6-2 guard who later.

NBA Weekly tickets for San antonio spurs nba finals home game 1 (date may change), LA Clippers.he biggest NBA news this week is that Baron Davis opted out of his contract with the Warriors and signed with the LA Clippers. Baron is from LA, so this is not a complete surprise but it is a little surprising that the Clippers are willing to spend money on a big name free agent. Now the Clippers are waiting on Elton Brand, who was offered a max contract by the Warriors, but wants to stay with the Clippers. Usually guys take the money in this situation but I would find it hard.

We on Award Tour: 2008 ESPY Nominations links, For whatever reason ESPN has tapped Justin Timberlake at host the ESPY?s. Considering his stint as host of the MTV Movie Awards host was uninspiring, I can't say this was an inspired choice. And really make no sense because of the occasional Laker stands sighting he has basically.sociation with sports. Yet with the ESPY's track record, the show should be at least watchable. This year's Arthur Ashe Award for Courage, which tend to be the highlight every year will be going to the Black Powe.

Dart Adams presents Journey Into Mystery: Investigating The NBA's European Player Backlash There are was a time when NBA scouts and GM's used to salivate over talent from the Euroleague and draft them over players that they saw every day in high school or even college. The reasoning was that the Euroleague talent had played more team basketball at an earlier age, they knew better fundamentals and they were rarely any character problems or questions. It helped that none of these kids ever played AAU and dealt with the any of the same issues that American kids did. This made Euroleague .

NBA Draft Tonight! Put on your finest velvet suit, your trucker hat, and shake hands with a tiny troll! NBA tickets, Ok, I have spent about as much time watching the NBA Draft as I have watching elephant polo because the Celtics just dominated the world and won a title. I have no idea who the Celtics have worked out, I don't know what Danny Ainge has said about this year's draft class, I don't know how much value our pick has for trades, or even what picks we have. To top it off, my expertise on each of these players in the draft is limited to a maximum of three or four games that I half-assedly watche.
